Kit trailers are bought unassembled from dealers who are not required to be licensed by the Dealer Bureau. Pole Trailers – if DGVW of power unit is less than 26,000 lbs. Semi Trailers – if DGVW of power unit is less than 26,000 lbs. The only time that a freight license plate will be issued to a homemade trailer is when the combined weight of both the towing unit and the trailer exceeds 26,000 pounds. Homemade Trailers are issued a trailer plate and will be subject to registration. These are trailers assembled or constructed largely by means of essential parts, new or used. The following trailers fall within the general definition of utility trailers. In simple terms a utility trailer is designed for general use and is towed by a motor vehicle. This definition is broad and includes a variety of types and designs of trailers. Most trailers (those not registered as RVs or freight trailers), including most utility trailers, are registered as trailers and receive regular trailer plates.Ī “utility trailer” is defined in statute as “any trailer, semitrailer or pole trailer, but does not include freight trailers, manufactured homes, trailers of less than one-ton carrying capacity used to transport animals, or fertilizer trailers of less than 3,500 pounds empty weight.” Trailers are subject to three different types of registration and plates – regular trailer, recreational travel trailer, and freight trailer.
