Texas - Over Axle and Over Gross Weight Tolerance Permit ($15,000) — required surety bond in Texas. Apply online in minutes.
The Texas Over Axle and Over Gross Weight Tolerance Permit Bond is a surety bond that ensures commercial motor carriers pay for damages caused to public roads. It guarantees financial compensation to the state or county if overweight vehicles damage highway infrastructure while operating under a tolerance permit.
Motor carriers, trucking companies, and independent operators driving overweight commercial vehicles in Texas typically need this bond. It is required before the state will issue an Over Axle and Over Gross Weight Tolerance Permit to a transportation company.
The state requires this bond as a financial safety net to protect public infrastructure. Heavy and oversized loads cause significantly more wear and tear on local roads and bridges. By mandating this bond, the obligee ensures funds are available to repair any structural damage directly resulting from permitted overweight vehicles.
