911 Transporting, your reliable partner for all your boat transportation needs in Alabama. We understand the importance of adhering to the Alabama Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations, and our experienced team ensures full compliance to guarantee a smooth and hassle-free transport process.
Our boat transportation services in Alabama strictly adhere to the following regulations set by the state:
Hours of Operation: When transporting an oversize boat in Alabama, we strictly follow regulated hours of operation. Typically, we operate from half an hour before sunrise to half an hour after sunset. Additionally, within metropolitan cities, we avoid rush hour traffic and do not operate during specified hours. Our professional boat transporters are well-versed in these regulations and strictly abide by them.
Permits:
When transporting an oversize boat in
Alabama, it is mandatory to have a current permit to haul the boat through or across the state. A boat is considered oversize if it exceeds 8.6 feet in width and 14 feet in height when loaded.
Escort Requirements: If your boat exceeds 12 feet in width, it requires two escorts at all times during transportation. This regulation can present challenges, especially when moving along Highway 10, which spans less than 100 miles. Our experienced team is equipped to handle these escort requirements efficiently and effectively. In Alabama, if the height of the loaded boat exceeds 14 feet, a pilot car is required during transportation. After loading the boat, we carefully measure the overall height to determine if a pilot car is necessary. We ensure compliance with this regulation to ensure the safe and secure transport of your boat.
Loading Facilities: Alabama primarily offers one major area for loading large boats for transport, with most loading facilities located in the Mobile area. Our expertise and knowledge of the region enable us to handle the logistics of boat transportation effectively, regardless of the loading location.
At 911 Transporting, we specialize in transporting various types of boats, including powerboats, sailboats, yachts, and small boats. Whether you need to transport your vessel within Alabama or across state lines, our professional boat transporters are dedicated to providing reliable and efficient services.
