Wyoming's extractive industries and vast open spaces create significant heavy equipment transport needs. From the coal mines of the Powder River Basin to the oil and gas operations statewide, from wind energy development to ranching operations, HEAT Freight navigates the Cowboy State with experienced drivers and reliable equipment.
Wyoming leads the nation in coal production, requiring massive mining equipment. Oil and gas operations need drilling rigs, completion equipment, and production facilities. Wind energy development generates turbine transport needs. Ranching operations require agricultural equipment. Trona mining for soda ash needs specialized equipment.
WYDOT issues oversize/overweight permits. Standard limits are 8.5' width, 14' height, and 80,000 lbs. Wyoming allows 60' semi-trailer length—the most permissive in the nation. The state participates in regional agreements. Winter conditions may affect scheduling.

What is Wyoming's trailer length allowance?
Wyoming allows 60' semi-trailer length, the most permissive in the nation (vs 53' standard). This can provide efficiency advantages for certain loads. We identify when Wyoming's generous limits benefit your shipment.
Can you transport Powder River Basin mining equipment?
Yes, we serve the Powder River Basin's coal operations with transport of haul trucks, draglines, and support equipment. Our drivers understand the scale of PRB mining operations and the massive equipment involved.
How do winter conditions affect Wyoming transport?
Wyoming winters feature severe cold, high winds, and ground blizzards. I-80 is particularly prone to closures. We monitor WYDOT conditions closely and schedule around severe weather. Flexibility is essential for winter Wyoming transport.
Does Wyoming participate in regional agreements?
Yes, Wyoming participates in Western regional permit reciprocity with neighboring states. This simplifies permitting for loads traveling through multiple states including Montana, Colorado, Utah, and the Dakotas.
