transporting WVO in to Canada to use to go to AK

[trooper Tdiesel]

the other thing that comes to mind is the lack of a license plate on the trailer.
and how Canada would respond to that.


granted its sounding like i should be more concerned with crossing back in to the US, then when im going in to Canada


i got trip permits to go back to the east cost this summer, and its a year before they would issue them agen...

i could barrow a legal plate from some one that has a plated trailer thats home made. its out of service right now with broken leaf springs, U-bolts ECT

in modding the trailer the vin had to be cut off do to rust damage.
so theres no data as to what it was originally

direct posting is being mean to day so hears a link to a photo.

Does your State require you to have a licence plate that refers to the trailer ?
(Heavy trailers have different licence plates in many countries.)

If you do, it should carry those plates.
If not, in international traffic, it needs the licence plate of the towing vehicle.

Can't get away with "Farm use" when hauling stuff internationally

i know some one that drove up to Canada with farm plates.
several thousand dollars later he was legal in Canada...

the farm equioment he was getting, was in sight from the border crossing....


trailers in my home state are exempt from plates and tags when under 1,800lbs Gross Trailer Weight.
sence its 1,600 empty i can pull it empty with no tags but that really does no good

1,801 to 8,000lbs is light trailer, over that 8K and things get spend-y in more then one way...


its a deal where 3+ people have had the thing thru the years but no one transfers the title.
it has never been registered in my state, thus i can not apply for a lost title.
when i got it it was a rusting heap of junk that the guy wanted gone NOW!!
for free you don't ask many questions

the only state its been registered in is WA, thus ive been slowly going thru there proses for getting prof of right to the trailer.

this is the proses for autos, trailers are a touch different.
