Escort Information and Guidelines

The Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS), requires payment for DPS officers performing oversize-overweight vehicle escorts to be made electronically.

To meet this payment requirement, there is an online service called EZ DPS Escorts.

On completion of the officer-assisted vehicle escort, DPS, using EZ DPS Escorts, will electronically bill the carrier for total escort expenses incurred, plus a $4.00 administrative fee for each transaction. These fees will automatically be charged to the carrier's ServiceArizona EZ Pay Account.

Companies currently using the EZ Motor Carrier Services are automatically granted access to EZ DPS Escorts.

Companies that do not have access to the electronic services must contact the ServiceArizona Business Coordinator at 602.712.4039 or by emailing [email protected] for additional information.

If you need to request a DPS escort, please contact 602.223.2855.
