Farm News: Fall Harvest Weight Limits Take Effect Sept. 1commentsPosted: 08.25.2011 Fall harvest weight limits take effect on September 1 and continue through November 30. During that time period, an overweight truck permit is not required for the transportation of corn, soybeans, potatoes, vegetables or cranberries from the field to initial storage, or from the field to the initial processing point. Vehicles or combination of vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of 50,000 - 80,000 pounds may increase their weights by 15 percent for harvest activities. For example, a semi-trailer loaded with corn normally cannot exceed 80,000 pounds. Under the fall harvest weight limits, that same trailer can be loaded up to 92,000 pounds. This exception does not apply on Class “B” highways or on highways designated as part of the national system of interstate and defense highways.
