FAQs

TollGuru™ considers the following factors to calculate tolls for your vehicle: For roads where truck tolls are based on weight and height, TollGuru™ uses a relationship between weight, height and number of axles to calculate tolls. Please refer to individual state pages to see truck toll payment information for your state. If a method of payment cannot be used throughout a route, it is shown as 🚫. For example, if you cannot pay using cash for all toll plazas, bridges, and tunnels in your route it is shown as 🚫 . However, you will be able to see tolls for individual toll plazas, bridges, and tunnels in the toll calculator.
There is no standard way to pay your tolls in the US or other parts of the world. For the US, most Tag transponders are not interoperable. If you have a transponder for one road, it may not work on another. Good news is that now you can use TollGuru™ Toll Calculator to know the payment methods allowed on each toll plaza along your route.
