HB 132 Wyoming House · 2025 Regular Session

Annual permits for specified commercial loads.

HB 132 authorizes annual permits for commercial haulers transporting portable building units, building materials, forest products, baled hay, and combine headers in Wyoming. It increases the maximum width allowed for most loads from 150 to 168 inches (while keeping forest products at 112 inches), removes the 102-inch width limit for single load components, and raises annual permit fees from $50 to $200. The bill directly affects commercial trucking companies and construction firms that regularly transport these specific materials. Key provisions include updated definitions for "portable building unit" and "building material," require state rulemaking for implementation, and take effect July 1, 2025.
