    Who do I contact to obtain a permit for oversize, overweight, or overlength loads?

    In order to obtain an overweight, overlength, or oversize permit, you need to contact the Central Permit Unit, located in Raleigh. Please have the following information ready when you call: • Type of vehicle (tractor/trailer or truck) being used for haul; • Applicant's name, address and telephone number; • Gross weight, gross licensed weight and total number axles of combination; • Width; • Length (overall length is from the front of the truck to the back of the trailer including overhang of load, if any); • Height; • Front overhang (if any), rear overhang (if any); • Commodity transported or towed; • Origin, destination, requested routes of travel including route numbers; • Trailer license number and state it is registered in, truck license number and state it is registered in (If you are moving a mobile home, you will need the serial number from the mobile home.); and • NCDOT transportation division or district nearest you.
    After ordering the permit from the Central Permit Unit, a pre-issue will be printed at the local NCDOT office you provided at the time of application. Please call that office before pick up to make sure your issue has been received. A fee ranging from $12 to $36 will be charged upon receipt of permit.

    Instead of getting a short term permit which can be a licensing headache, why don't you just contact the license branch in VA and see about an annual.
    I do oversize now and have a license book that covers most states in an annual permit.
    Definitely a whole lot cheaper in the long run.
