Chartiers Township, PA Oversize and Overweight Permit Bond

Carriers and haulers who move heavy freight or wide loads within the township must have this bond in place before a permit is issued. Without it, your permit application goes nowhere.
Who Needs This Bond?
Trucking companies, freight carriers, and independent haulers are the primary applicants for this bond. If you are operating a vehicle or combination that exceeds Pennsylvania's standard weight or dimension limits on roads within Chartiers Township, this bond is required. Construction contractors hauling heavy equipment, oversize machinery movers, and specialized transport operators all fall into this category. Anyone applying for an oversize or overweight vehicle permit from Chartiers Township needs this bond on file.
What is this Bond For?
Chartiers Township issues oversize and overweight permits to allow loads that exceed standard legal limits to travel on township-controlled roads. This bond protects the township by ensuring that any road damage caused by those permitted loads can be recovered financially. It is not insurance for your cargo or your truck — it is a financial guarantee to the township that you will be responsible for any harm your load causes to public infrastructure. Think of it as the township's protection, not yours.
When is it Required?
Permit application is the trigger — you cannot receive an oversize or overweight permit from Chartiers Township until this bond is submitted and accepted. The moment you determine your load exceeds standard legal limits for weight or dimensions and your route passes through Chartiers Township, this bond becomes mandatory. It must be active and in force for the duration of your permitted operations. Delays in getting bonded mean delays in moving your load.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond applies exclusively within Chartiers Township, Pennsylvania. It is a local township requirement, entirely separate from any state-level Pennsylvania Department of Transportation permitting. Your bond coverage is tied to the roads and infrastructure under Chartiers Township's jurisdiction, not to any surrounding municipalities or state highways.
