Hattiesburg, MS Oversize Load And Trucking Resources

Which Local Sources Matter In Hattiesburg?

The city describes keeping large trucks on designated routes while preserving specific delivery, pickup and service access. Bring destination documentation and verify the approved approach instead of treating a local delivery as permission for any shortcut.

The city explicitly says the changes address how state oversize permits interact with local truck routes. Check that interaction with the actual named streets and police before dispatch.

• City Of Hattiesburg — Truck Route Ordinance Amendments — The current city page says the Council adopted truck-route amendments on July 7, 2026, effective August 6, 2026. It explains that specific deliveries, service calls and necessary access remain possible, and links a FAQ plus a marked draft amendment.
• City Of Hattiesburg — Truck Route FAQ — The city-linked explanatory FAQ discusses direct delivery access, evidence of the destination, special permits and notification for state-permitted non-designated-route movements. It retains proposed-change wording, so it is not itself the authenticated adopted ordinance.
• City Of Hattiesburg — Linked Marked Truck Route Amendment Draft — The redlined document includes section 9.1: state route approval that expressly names a non-designated street, prior police notification, and no extra city special permit for movements already authorized by the state permit when notification is satisfied. The ordinance number is blank; confirm the adopted copy before treating this exact language as binding.
