Illinois – know before you go

As a truck driver in a major freight center, you might say you’ve arrived. As you face heavy traffic, frequent construction, and severe weather to deliver the goods the country relies on, we say you’re a hero! To keep things running smoothly, be aware of restrictions in the Chicago metropolitan area as well as strict load securement requirements. The good news? Illinois offers agricultural exemptions during harvest seasons.
