Weight- or dimension-based charges are shown as their formula. IRP figures are the published full-year fee at ~80,000 lbs, which IRP prorates by mileage — not a flat amount owed. Confirm the current figure with the linked agency before you file.
Federal fees also apply everywhere
Whatever state you run in, federal credentials apply on top of Nebraska's fees: your USDOT number (free), MC operating authority ($300 per authority type), the annual Unified Carrier Registration, and the Heavy Vehicle Use Tax (Form 2290). A brand-new carrier's full first-90-days list is in the new MC authority checklist.
