Where to buy trailer

Just out of curiosity, what did Lex Brodie inspect on the trailer? How much was the registration?

"Took around 75 minutes, wasn't too bad."

I had to go through a similar process when I bought a car without plates. The ironic thing was that we asked a cop friend of ours if I would get pulled over for driving the car without plates to the inspection station and was told yes, pulled over and ticketed (if seen). Then the question became, how can I legally get a car without plates to an inspection station? The only answer seemed, getting the plateless car towed to the inspection was the only legal way to get it there.

How does that logic transfer to a plateless trailer which by definition has to be towed? I guess you'd have to get a flatbed truck large enough to fit the trailer on the bed and have it trucked over there. Or even better yet, you could hire a truck with a larger, but legal trailer to put your smaller "no plate / illegal" trailer on it.

Or just do what I did, hope you don't get ticketed for getting caught in the act of trying to make your thing road legal.

Lex Brodie just checked the lights trailer was to small to have brakes. Almost choked at the registration fee it was $95 for a 5x8 400lbs trailer. No one had any logical solution to having to move it with no tags catch22.
