Oversize / Overweight
Drive the route your
permit allows.
Your permit already names the roads. SafeHaul turns that route sheet into a line on a map — one you check before dispatch, follow from the cab, and can prove you stayed on afterward.

Real geometry from a permit SafeHaul resolved — 530 polyline points, simplified for display. Carrier and permit number withheld.
A permitted route isn’t a suggestion.
The state picked those roads for a reason: a bridge that won’t take the weight, a clearance that won’t take the height, a turn the trailer can’t make. Leave the line and the permit stops covering the load.
The route sheet that tells you all this is a wall of typed road codes, handed to a driver who is already moving.
- Every turn
- Read off the permit, not guessed from an address-to-address router.
- Before dispatch
- Check the whole route on a map while there's still time to fix it.
- On the record
- The drive is measured against the permitted line, mile by mile.
How it works
Permit in, route out.
Four steps, in order, every time.
- 01
Add the permit
Scan the QR on the permit, type its number, upload the PDF, photograph it, or forward it to permits@safehaul.app. For Texas and Louisiana, SafeHaul pulls the state's own copy and keeps it with the permit.
- 02
SafeHaul reads the route
Every leg on the route sheet becomes a waypoint, resolved to real road centerlines — so the line on screen is the roads the permit names, in the order it names them.
- 03
It gets checked
Nine automated checks run against the resolved route — printed mileage, endpoints, road coverage, and how faithfully a phone will actually follow it. Anything that doesn't hold up is flagged for review instead of shipped quietly.
- 04
Drive it
Turn-by-turn from the cab, or hand the whole route to Google Maps with every permit waypoint intact. Chain permits across state lines into one drivable route.
In the cab
Built for one hand and bright sun.
The driver's half of the product is a phone, mounted, at 60 mph.
Turn-by-turn on the permitted line
Next instruction, distance to it, and how far to the permit's start — not a generic route to the same address.
Hand off to Google Maps
Opens the Maps app with every permit waypoint preserved, ready to start.
Off-route, immediately
The drive is compared to the permitted line as you go, so a wrong turn is visible now rather than in a report.
Conditions from the permit
Daylight-only hours, holiday restrictions, escort requirements and speed caps, lifted out of the permit text.
For the office
What the fleet looks like from a desk.
The same data the app runs on, rolled up — no separate telematics box, no driver paperwork.

Permits by state
Permitted vs driven
Every finished drive is scored against the line the permit allowed, so adherence is a number rather than an argument.
A certificate per drive
One shareable link proving a specific permit was driven on route — the answer to a broker, an insurer, or an enforcement question weeks later.
Equipment, from the permits
Axle spacings, weights, dimensions and VINs are already on the permits. SafeHaul groups them into truck profiles without anyone re-typing a spec sheet.
It sharpens with use
Every correction teaches the next permit.
When a route needs a human fix, the fix doesn’t stop at that permit. SafeHaul keeps it and applies it to matching routes that come later — the same corridor, the same interchange, the same awkward turn — so a problem solved once stays solved.
That is the part that compounds. A fleet running the same lanes month after month gets a system that already knows those lanes.
- 01
A route is corrected once
By hand, on the permit that needed it.
- 02
The correction is kept
Tied to the corridor and endpoints it applies to, not just that permit id.
- 03
Later permits inherit it
Matching routes are replayed against it before they ever reach a driver.
- 04
Fewer reviews over time
The same lane stops needing the same fix.
Privacy
Your permits stay yours.
What a shared link exposes, and what it never does.
Private by default
- A permit you add is yours. Nobody else in your company sees it until you share it.
- Share it and it reaches your organization — not other companies on SafeHaul.
- Your drive history stays inside your organization.
- Administrators in your own organization can see your permits, for support and compliance.
When you do share a route
- The link shows the route shape and its name.
- It does not show the carrier, the permit number, or who drove it.
- You can turn the link off again at any time.

FAQ
Straight answers.
- Does SafeHaul apply for permits?
- No. You get the permit from the state as you do now. SafeHaul takes it from there and turns it into the route you're allowed to drive.
- Which states work today?
- Texas, Louisiana, Colorado and North Dakota. A permit from anywhere can still be uploaded as a PDF or photo and read from the document itself.
- What if the route comes out wrong?
- Flag it. It goes to a review queue, gets corrected by hand, and the correction carries forward to matching routes so the same lane doesn't need fixing twice.
- Does it work on a phone?
- That's the main way it's used. Add a permit by scanning its QR code and drive it from the same phone.
- Can I take the route into other software?
- Yes — export any route as CSV, GPX or KML, or hand it to Google Maps with every permit waypoint intact.
- What does it cost?
- Depends on fleet size and how many permits you run. Tell us what you're hauling and we'll give you a straight number.
