License plate question

Fritz Maurer · Apr 2, 2017

Do you need an 80 plate with a 35 ton carry-all (in Ohio) ? thank you.

If I understand your question correctly: NO. You can license whatever you want. Just don't haul over your licensed weight (or don't get caught) .

mmfan has it right.

Ohio you do not designate a weight for a plate. That is the trailer manufactured carry weight that you get. The only weight you use is the empty weight of truck or trailer for them to come up with the cost of the plate. Say if the trailer is made for 7,000# you cannot licence it for 5000# or 8000#.

Possibly in some states but not here in Ohio.

There are a number of states that do not have any weight rating on the license plate. Weight rating on tow vehicle. Plate cost is not affected by trailer size . Trailer plate cost in Kentucky is the same on a single axle utility as a semi.
