CT oversize/overweight bonds.
$275. Five minutes.
When Connecticut issues an oversize or overweight hauling permit, it can require a $2,000 bond standing behind the move under the C.G.S. 14-270 permit framework. At 3% the math lands below our floor, so it is $275 flat — the same for every hauler, with no credit check.

What it is and who needs it.
What the permit bond actually guarantees
A hauler moving a load that exceeds Connecticut’s legal size or weight limits needs an oversize/overweight permit, administered under the C.G.S. 14-270 permit framework and its regulations. As a condition of certain permits, the state can require a $2,000 surety bond standing behind the move.
The bond guarantees that the permittee follows the permit conditions and does not damage the highway — pavement, bridges, structures, drainage, and other roadway features along the routed move. If the move causes damage the hauler does not pay for, the state can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays for highway damage, you repay the surety. Whether a bond is required can depend on the permit type and route; confirm on your permit paperwork, and we issue the $2,000 bond to match.
