I recently bought a Home Made Car Hauler in Florida and have never gone through the process of Registering it for Legal Road Use. This is how you do it!

This was great, I have been researching "where do you find a vin number on a boat trailer?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Siyichael Mysterious Smasher - (do a google search )? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for discovering how to get a cheap boat title report minus the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my cousin got cool results with it.

Informative video! I am about to buy a trailer but the seller said his is home made and never had it registered. I also live in Florida and he told me all I need is to get it weighed and I’ll be fine.

You’re supposed to get a 10 day temporary tag from the DMV to transport your trailer to the weigh station.

I just registered a boat last week and they told me that if I used one of my spare plates I would lose the fee if I wanted to put back on a car. Dunno. Since trailer tags are so cheap, pay the extra few bucks. I'm in Pinellas County.

Great video, very helpful. I just moved to FL from NJ and brought a home built utility trailer with me with expired NJ plates, no registration and no title. It's well under 2000 lbs so all I'll need is to register it but how can I go about getting a FL plate for it? Thanks!

Great video I just purchased a homemade trailer from a previous owner that did not think to actually have it registered not giving a crap that he was towing an unregistered trailer. Now I know to have it weighed before I go to my local tax collector. Does this also work for personal watercraft with a an electric motor ?

Hey bud your video was very useful and I noticed you live in Roseland I live in Brevard county on 192 and I just built an open 4x8 utility trailer and need to use it ASAP!! It's definitely under $2,000 lb so all I need to do is take it to a weigh station have it weighed and then take that to my tax collector And they will be able to register it? I don't think I have an extra tag so I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to pay the 75 for a tag but I just wanted to check and see it's as simple as that if it's under $2,000 correct?

Thanks for the info, please make sure you get rid of that trailer home wheels, they are very unsafe for daily use, specially if you take heavy loads, that wheel is made of a garbage cast iron that can easily crack, it is meant to be used for probably moving trailer homes within yards? This trash almost killed me on highway be safe.

First and foremost very helpful. I have been round and round with Tax Collector Office and DMV‘s trying to get help. My question is this I have a store-bought trailer and have the receipt for it. I am wanting to build a camper on top. Do you know steps for getting that registered in Florida? Is first step getting trailer weighed just as is or should I go ahead and build the camper on it then take it to get weighed as a complete unit and then go to tax collector for registration? I will have certificate of origin(receipt of trailer purchase) weight slip before and after if needed? It is tear drop style, tiny tiny. Total weight approx 500 lbs including trailer and camper. It is 12’ long including hire h, 5’ across and maybe 8’ height. Hopefully someone can help me! Please and thank you…

So a friend who just bought a property here in Florida is giving me a rolling chassis from a torn down old camper trailer left by the previous owners decades ago so no papers whatsoever. I wanna fix it up and eventually build it as a teardrop camper or something like it. My questions to anyone who knows are; Do I weigh & register it first as a home built utility trailer/chassis and then do it again once I'm done building the camper on top of it Or do I only register it once? If only once, is it before or after the whole build is completed? Thanks y'all!
@geddafokowt
@geddafokowt 2 жыл бұрын
I would register it as a utility trailer first, because if your teardrop is over 2000 lbs you will have to title it and you don't own that trailer yet. register it as a utility under 2000 lbs to establish ownership, then build your teardrop and re-title as a camper when you are done.

Ok, so I'm pretty much done cutting it shorter, welding some 2" square tubing to make it a bit wider, adding new fenders, wheels, new light kit, and primed ready for painting. My question is, do I have to put flooring before going to the weighing scale or the current "bare metal" frame will do?

This video did not detail how the weight of the trailer was determined. If you just get the weight of the trailer on its axel(s) that's omitting the tounge weight borne by the hitch. You either need to weigh the trailer alone off the truck, or weigh the truck alone and subtract from the total combined weight.
