Rhode Island single-trip oversize permit fee

$40

Source: RIDOT — OSOW Permit Types & Limits

Effective date: Rhode Island does not print one. We are not inventing one.

Checked 2026-08-21. Next check 2026-08-28.

That is the Rhode Island statutory single-trip permit fee for one movement, from one origin to one destination.

Official RIDOT types sheet: statutory single-trip $40; additional subscriber $4.50 / credit card $4.50 / in-person $0.00.

The same PDF says it is “for reference only and does not supersede any laws.” The official statute URL we saved did not return §31-25-21. We are posting the $40 the RIDOT sheet prints, and we are not silently treating the PDF as the statute.

The $4.50 subscriber or credit-card charge is checkout, not the permit fee. In-person is $0.00 extra.

This page covers general single-trip permits.

When this number took effect

The RIDOT types PDF does not print an effective date for the $40. We are not inventing one.

Checked 2026-08-21 (PT) against the official RIDOT snapshot.
