Springfield's fleet leans private: of the 523 active carriers with at least one truck based here in FMCSA's November 2026 census, 275 move their own goods. After general freight the cargoes they declare most are motor vehicles, machinery and steel coil, and the city's plants employ more people than its warehouses and its building sites together.
So a Springfield yard holds a tanker that fills at the St. James Avenue or Albany Street racks on the west side. Beside it sits a day cab that shuttles boxes off the intermodal ramp and the West Springfield yard across the river. A flatbed carries coil and machinery for the plants, and a box truck works the delivery routes. The semi truck with a sleeper works the interstate, because 414 of the carriers here are registered for interstate work.
Lost title in Springfield
The RMV service center at 1250 St. James Avenue takes the duplicate-title application and the transfer paperwork.
A tanker is read through the barrel, the hoses and the pump. A coil flatbed is read through the deck and the winches, a day cab through the fifth wheel and the steps. Photograph those first, then the cab, the engine and the odometer, and tell us the rack, the ramp or the plant it worked.
Weight limits in Springfield
Springfield's own inventory is 60 bridges, three posted for load and one below fourteen feet, at thirteen feet five where State Street crosses Roosevelt Avenue. A tall box truck on that side knows one span, and a tandem answers to the scale. What Massachusetts allows on its own roads, and the federal table on the interstates, is set out on the Massachusetts page, not on this Springfield page.
Tell us where the truck is in Springfield, over by the racks, across the river at the yard or on the north end toward Westover, and send photos and the title.
