For the first time since moving to AZ, I observe myself wondering WTF?

I made the trip to the DMV in Yuma this morning and was pretty annoyed at having to annals my new 1 ton truck equally a commercial vehicle. I went as far every bit speaking to the extremely rude manager to get out of information technology. In the stop I was pretty much told tough shit and had to pay actress for a weight fee and commercial fee. I asked about the one-time fob of putting the camper shell on and was told that this isn't California.

This is what I pulled off the AZ MVD site:

"Light Duty Vehicles

Rider cars, ? ton or less pickup trucks and ? ton or less vans, used for commercial purposes one,000 or more hours in a vehicle registration year, must be registered commercially.

A vehicle registered in the name of a commercial enterprise must be registered commercially unless the registering applicant certifies that the vehicle will non be maintained and used for commercial purposes.

For the registration of 1-ton pickup trucks used for either commercial or personal use, the applicant must declare a gross weight and pay gross weight fees and a $4.00 commercial fee.

What is a declared gross weight?

Gross weight is the sum of the empty weight in pounds of a motor vehicle combination (power unit of measurement and trailer) plus the weight in pounds of the load to exist carried on the motor vehicle combination at any indicate in fourth dimension. Customers declare the maximum gross weight at which they will operate their vehicle and then pay the respective fee equally determined by the post-obit tabular array."

The weight fee ranged from $vii.50-$1,000 a year. I alleged my truck as 8,000lbs which was the absolute minimum and ate the $seven.fifty plus the commercial fee.

What has me wondering now is what laws I have to follow. My truck weights around 8,000 empty and if I haul my boat, car hauler, or toybox am I in some sort of weight violation since I didn't pay the correct GCWR? I have a neighbour that got pulled over in his visitor 1ton last calendar week on the I-viii in AZ for a commercial inspection. During the 30 minute finish they wanted to run into all the truck functions, securement, triangles, spare fuses, and and bunch of other shit. Concluding time I was driving the 10E coming into AZ past Blythe, I got the calorie-free that said must stop at the weight station. I was in my F-250 and simply kept on driving thinking information technology was in mistake.

The but selection I can discover online is a thread here from 2009 that says to get custom plates so they wont show the license plate code. Anybody have any real info on the bailiwick?

Did you buy it under your company proper name? I just got stopped at HP check point leaving dump. Any truck in CA with a GVW over 10,000 is required to accept a DOT number and CA numbers and co name on truck. I call up nigh new three/4 ton trucks have a GVW over 10k and for sure all ane tons do. And in CA all trucks are commercial but over 10k require the weight sticker although I have seen them on half ton trucks. Merely got my registration for 1 of the piece of work trucks.$952 $546 is for the weight fee.

You can't get away with it in CA, either. If the cargo expanse is permanently converted with seats and belts you can register as non commercial. That's the gist I got from AAA when I registered a b-100 a few years agone. It was a $70ish difference, and they walked out and checked that it had seats.

Did you purchase it under your company proper noun? I just got stopped at HP check point leaving dump. Any truck in CA with a GVW over 10,000 is required to have a DOT number and CA numbers and co name on truck. I think most new 3/4 ton trucks have a GVW over 10k and for certain all one tons do. And in CA all trucks are commercial but over 10k require the weight sticker although I have seen them on half ton trucks. Merely got my registration for one of the work trucks.$952 $546 is for the weight fee.

Our 3/4 ton is nether, but non by much. That's something to retrieve about before getting the one ton.

The weight fee ranged from $7.fifty-$1,000 a twelvemonth. I alleged my truck as 8,000lbs which was the absolute minimum and ate the $7.50 plus the commercial fee.

What has me wondering now is what laws I have to follow. My truck weights around 8,000 empty and if I booty my boat, car hauler, or toybox am I in some sort of weight violation since I didn't pay the right GCWR?

Yep. Hither it is about a $1 a pound for every pound over 8k. I know numerous Contractors that have received heavy fines over $5k one was over $30k, and the only one I have heard the judge reduce to $14K. I pay for the 26k sticker as the 20k sticker is not enough 23k is what I would need. Friends with Duallys pay for 26k but get out them in glove box. With a utility trunk I have to brandish as local commercial truck enforcement targets work trucks.

The trunk change from commercial to motorcar must be a permanent modification for human inhabitation or send. (i.eastward.camping ground, seating, etc). I have done this on all of my Ca trucks for close to 20 years now. The most contempo was the virtually hard and they are slowly closing the loophole. Mine was justified as a camper shell as we are are avid outdoors enthusiasts and nosotros purchased the truck to camp and slumber in the back. We have pillows and blankets in dorsum only in case. Is also advisable that if y'all're going to become that road that you get vanity plates equally them yous won't go a nosey chp when he sees auto plates on a truck. [emoji6] AAA was completely worthless in regards to this and information technology was easier to set an appt at DMV to get it done.

Our 3/4 ton is under, just not by much. That's something to think virtually before getting the i ton.

It used to be ok with one ton but my old F450 required them. At present the trucks are rated for a lot more than than they used to. I told the CHP a new half ton Titan with cummins is probably over 10k. He said by constabulary I tin can impound it for non having CA numbers. I have been hauling with my 3/4 ton each time I go to that dump. Killing the truck but they practice not bother me like they do in the 1 ton.

The way I take the post-obit statement is that I don't demand a DOT number equally information technology will never be operated for any sort of commerce. With this said I will just take to worry well-nigh weight until I up the number.

When Do I Need a U.S. DOT Number?

You meet the definition of a Motor Carrier and must obtain a U.S. DOT number, if:

You generate revenue through the transportation of your own belongings or the property of others (for-hire); or
You perform a service that is a part of your business or have a personal hobby that involves the use of a vehicle or combination of vehicles that has a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of more than ten,000 lbs and operate in interstate commerce or a GVWR of more than than 18,000 lbs and operate in intrastate commerce.
You may need more than one type of U.S. DOT number depending on the type of cargo, materials, or passengers that you transport.

Information technology used to be ok with one ton merely my old F450 required them. Now the trucks are rated for a lot more than than they used to. I told the CHP a new one-half ton Titan with cummins is probably over 10k. He said by law I tin can impound information technology for not having CA numbers. I take been hauling with my 3/4 ton each time I become to that dump. Killing the truck but they do not bother me like they practise in the i ton.

If it has a pickup bed the CHP can't do shit.

For the first time since moving to AZ, I find myself wondering WTF?

The weight fee ranged from $7.50-$i,000 a yr. I declared my truck as 8,000lbs which was the absolute minimum and ate the $7.fifty plus the commercial fee.

What has me wondering now is what laws I take to follow. My truck weights around 8,000 empty and if I haul my boat, auto hauler, or toybox am I in some sort of weight violation since I didn't pay the right GCWR? I take a neighbor that got pulled over in his company 1ton last calendar week on the I-8 in AZ for a commercial inspection. During the 30 minute stop they wanted to meet all the truck functions, securement, triangles, spare fuses, and and agglomeration of other shit. Last fourth dimension I was driving the 10E coming into AZ past Blythe, I got the light that said must stop at the weight station. I was in my F-250 and but kept on driving thinking it was in error.

The only option I can find online is a thread here from 2009 that says to go custom plates and so they wont prove the license plate code. Anybody have whatsoever real info on the subject?


If your truck weighs 8,000 lbs, and is registered for 8,000 lbs, don't pull a boat, haul a quad, or bring a agglomeration of flake to the dump. you will exist over weight.

My wrecker is reg'd for 10K. weighs nine,000+. But wreckers are exempt from gross weight (and length) restrictions.

Just pay up to 10K.

Years ago, (1995?) I collection a wrecker with a 8K registration, and weighed 16,000 lbs. At yearly inspection, DPS told me to fix it, because the next time He seen me on the road, He would pull me over and check.

Less than two weeks, we met once more, at a standoff. Yep, he checked. The boss had already paid the fees.

Really looking at the fee schedule it sucks. If your truck has a 11,500 gvwr and take a 18,000 5th bicycle y'all are looking at a $324 weight fee. If your trailer is 10,000 then $198.

Whatever truck in CA with a GVW over 10,000 is required to have a DOT number and CA numbers and co proper name on truck. I think most new 3/iv ton trucks have a GVW over 10k and for sure all 1 tons do.

Only got my registration for 1 of the work trucks.$952 $546 is for the weight fee.

This doesn't utilise to personal owned trucks under 11,500 lbs. WITH a pickup bed, right?

This doesn't apply to personal owned trucks nether 13,500 lbs. WITH a pickup bed, correct?

He stopped me in the truck with utility torso. It has as 13000 lb GVWR and a 30K GCVWR. He implied any truck with over a 10k GVWR would need CA numbers. It is a company truck on registration.

I am thinking I demand to buy some other truck in my name that tin handle my trailers at 9,999 lbs. Should I go a reg cab long bed 2500 add together air numberless or only go 3500 as a personal truck for my dump runs with dump trailer. My 2500 reg cab gasser frowns on the concrete loads but I practise not want to deal with check points and the headaches.

All of this BS is why I ran Chevy 2500 service bodies for my Air conditioning biz. I kept them all unmarked and never had a trouble. Much of this nonsense is coming from the Federal DOT. I doubt I volition ever own another dually, it only isn't worth it.

Unless y'all have something to hide I would keep using visitor trucks. Is the trailer insured to the pulling vehicle its fastened to? Buying some other truck and registering it personal seems like a lot of piece of work not to mention if an accident occurs that involves a company trailer that would get confronting your personal insurance.

Whatsoever truck in CA with a GVW over 10,000 is required to accept a DOT number and CA numbers and co name on truck. I think most new 3/4 ton trucks have a GVW over 10k and for sure all ane tons do.

All this is just commercial here in CA simply yes the 10001 lb deal is going to spill into everything over fourth dimension. Anyone who buys fifty-fifty a 1 ton PU with just a bed is field of study to this now even if all they exercise is selection upwards hey bails for their ain Horses or pull a equus caballus trailer. The RV deal is likewise getting sketchy.

You don't demand DOT unless your leaving CA. Intrastate but the CA numbers are fine. DOT is a massive PITA.

Besides you lot MUST accept a Motor Carrier Permit in CA over 10001 lbs whether individual or For Hire and pay Bit weather your part of the inspection plan or non. That is CA number driven. Not heavily enforced for a PU Truck based vehicle but that is apace irresolute.

I am stepping down to 3/four ton service bodies because this reg. money game is just getting hideous.

CARB is trying to impale business concern anyway.

I went as far as speaking to the extremely rude managing director to go out of it. In the end I was pretty much told tough shit and had to pay extra for a weight fee and commercial fee. I asked most the old trick of putting the camper shell on and was told that this isn't California.

The weight fee ranged from $seven.fifty-$i,000 a yr. I alleged my truck equally 8,000lbs which was the accented minimum and ate the $7.fifty plus the commercial fee.

I have had my erstwhile DRW Coiffure cab registered at 8000 pounds for 27 years and never had a problem, only that's in Havasu, I rarely go out of town and haven't been to California in it in probably 20 years.

I don't think CGWR rating matters, but the GVW. I do not see a CGWR on the registration.
On class 8 trucks in that location is both.

I don't honestly know the answer to any of this, but in my opinion Arizona DPS/DOT is trying to become more like California, they encounter a big cash cow that's there for the milking.

It's all a big coin grab by the land going afterward what they perceive as the lowest hanging money tree.

If y'all have a standard pickup bed and aren't using it for concern you have nil to worry nigh. If yous are using for business leave the advertising off the vehicle.

The reason why you got singled out is because of the utility body, I talked to a chp commercial guy also known as a trucker fucker he said a pickup w/o the standard bed and any van that has a box on the back needs to have numbers on the door and must stop at all scales rv's exempt

This is the exact reason why truck makers make 2500 trucks, which are more often than not identical to the 3500 trucks - fleet operators need them to save on reg fees.

They're congenital to comply with GVWR limits.

When I lived at the beach, it was "no commercial vehicle" parking. I put vanity plates on my 2500 afterwards my neighbor started getting rousted for parking his i-ton "commercial" personal pickup on the streets.

Hell, my contrivance weights 9K. So I guess with my gunkhole I'm way over and should be running all the stickers and all. Fuck that. I'll go to court over that shit. Cause information technology's a private use vehicle. Hell, it'south my daily commuter so they are now impeding my freedom to travel.

This is more than of an AZ result than a CA effect. all Pickups are reg'd commercial in CA (some loopholes though)

One tons in AZ are required. Everyman weight fee is 8K. Not too adept on a 9K truck (already over weight) Mine are at 10K, I think. (One F350, and 2 C30'south)

I know its not the aforementioned, but my '96 CC F350 was 91 bux for 2 years. Brothers '98 Superduty F250 was n of 300 a yr, in CA (Riverside, for 2016)

And so much is Illegal any more than. 3 beam trailer- CDL. Over 10K or 10.5K trailer, CDL. Exceed Gross combined- huge ticket.

I pulled a 12K 3 axle trailer with an 86 C20 (350 at that) all over SoCal. From San Diego all the mode to Porterville. Never had a problem.

Thats all I got.

Note to anybody in CA. All pickups are registered every bit a commercial vehicle. That why the plates are ane number, 1 letter, 5 numbers or showtime 2012 and after five numbers, 1 letter, one number. Not commercial plates are 1 number, 3 letters, 3 numbers. Anyways as long as your pickup has a pickup bed that is less than 9 feet and the truck has a GVWR of eleven,500 or less you are exempt from having to get a weight sticker, CA numbers, motor carrier permit, commercial insurance policy, and DOT numbers. Information technology's on the CA website. If you have a pickup with a bed, registered to a visitor you are exempt from the weight sticker, CA numbers, motor carrier let, commercial insurance policy, and DOT numbers as long as the vehicle has a GVWR less than 10,000. If its more x,001 you have to become all that stuff.

It looks like for AZ if you practise have a "1 ton" and merely use it for personal use y'all are exempt from the commercial regulations only still have to pay the weight fee. The fee is based on what weight you choose.

Annotation to everyone in CA. All pickups are registered equally a commercial vehicle. That why the plates are i number, 1 letter, 5 numbers or beginning 2012 and after 5 numbers, one letter, 1 number. Non commercial plates are one number, 3 messages, 3 numbers. Anyways as long as your pickup has a pickup bed that is less than nine anxiety and the truck has a GVWR of 11,500 or less you are exempt from having to get a weight sticker, CA numbers, motor carrier permit, commercial insurance policy, and DOT numbers. It'south on the CA website. If y'all have a pickup with a bed, registered to a company you lot are exempt from the weight sticker, CA numbers, motor carrier let, commercial insurance policy, and DOT numbers as long equally the vehicle has a GVWR less than x,000. If its more than than 10,001 you have to become all that stuff.

Information technology looks similar for AZ if you practice have a "1 ton" and only utilise it for personal employ you are exempt from the commercial regulations merely nevertheless have to pay the weight fee. The fee is based on what weight you choose.

I fucking hate that kommifornia charges commercial fees for a truck. Seems that it should exist illegal equally its privately endemic. And I tin seat more people more comfortably than most cars on the road. Quad cab, I can seat 6 people comfortably, try that in a honda. Yet I'thou still charged commercial fees and not considered a motorbus. If I ever hitting the redneck lottery, I'll take kommifornia to court on that.

My F250 is commercially registered in Arizona.

The fee is four dollars for commercial registration and 7.5 bucks for weight.

I have a hard fourth dimension getting upset well-nigh 11.five bucks.

Now the vehicle tax is 1,043.45 and that is the same whether it is commercial or non-commercial. That makes me a lilliputian more than grumpy.

I've ever had a 1 ton dually, and it's always been registered every bit a commercial vehicle because of it's GVMR. It is what it is. In the grand scheme of things it's not a big deal. Perhaps $10-twenty/year?

It'due south not every bit much the boosted money that irritates me. It's all the requirements of information technology being a commercial vehicle and then having to calculate the max weight you lot will ever acquit. Commercial vehicles and their opperators are the most regulated industry on globe. Information technology almost opens you up to the typical boating norms of beingness pulled over anytime to just be inspected.

Information technology's not as much the additional coin that irritates me. It's all the requirements of it being a commercial vehicle and then having to calculate the max weight you will ever conduct. Commercial vehicles and their opperators are the nigh regulated industry on earth. It almost opens yous up to the typical boating norms of beingness pulled over someday to just exist inspected.

Every car I ain has a commercial registration in addition to my truck as they are all owned in corporations. No one has ever bothered me and I take never had a question asked about information technology? My buddies wife who is a drug rep and has a Buick is commercially registered equally it is owned past the drug company.

I take always been told that the "Arizona state" requirement to register the vehicle as commercial does non necessarily mean you lot are using the vehicle for "commercial purposes" every bit divers by federal law and if you are not, y'all are non subject to the requirements of the FMCSA.

What are the additional requirements of having i's vehicles, truck or car, registered equally commercial in Arizona if information technology is not being used for commercial purposes as defined by Federal regulations?

Beats me? I know some "trucker fuckers" :) with AZ DPS. I'll ask them.

Good thread as now I accept questions.

All of this BS is why I ran Chevy 2500 service bodies for my AC biz. I kept them all unmarked and never had a problem. Much of this nonsense is coming from the Federal DOT. I doubt I volition always own some other dually, it simply isn't worth information technology.

Our work trucks are a mix of 3500 dually flatbeds and a couple of 2500 flatbeds unmarried wheel rears.The 3500s need the ca number and weight stickers displayed the 2500 dont need anything and my boss doesnt run a name on truck either just plain white for this reason.

I do withal have to go thru the scales with the 2500 just dont demand the bs stickers.I did get pulled off to the side so the officer can confirm information technology was an under 10k gvw vehicle he just looked at the door sticker and told me that if i exceeded 10k the fines would be pretty expert.

Our work trucks are a mix of 3500 dually flatbeds and a couple of 2500 flatbeds single wheel rears.The 3500s need the ca number and weight stickers displayed the 2500 dont need anything and my boss doesnt run a name on truck either but obviously white for this reason.

I exercise still take to go thru the scales with the 2500 only dont demand the bs stickers.I did go pulled off to the side then the officer can confirm it was an under 10k gvw vehicle he just looked at the door sticker and told me that if i exceeded 10k the fines would be pretty good.


I just spoke to a guy that told me it all comes down to the number on the door sticker too. My truck says 9,900 GVWR. For this I should have upped my weight fee to the 8001-10,000lb bracket that is $36 annually. The question comes into play that when I add together the 5th wheel, my gross weight will exist around x,500 based on the truck weighing 8,000 and the trailer pin being two,500 ish. Could I legally pay the 10,001-12,000 weight fee or am I at present illegal since I'm over the ix,900 on the door sticker?

For this I should accept upped my weight fee to the 8001-x,000lb bracket that is $36 annually. The question comes into play that when I add the 5th wheel, my gross weight will be around 10,500 based on the truck weighing 8,000 and the trailer pivot being 2,500 ish. Could I legally pay the ten,001-12,000 weight fee or am I now illegal since I'm over the ix,900 on the door sticker?

I believe the linguistic communication in the AZ weight fee law is you accept to include whatever trailers that will be hooked up to the truck. Take what ever the fifth wheel gvwr is and add it to the 9,900 of the truck. If the 5th wheel puts your truck over ix,900 you are illegally over loaded. Can your truck handle information technology though, yes. Can information technology be a trouble, yes. You tin can get cited for beingness over loaded, your insurance may non embrace you if you are involved in an accident.

Edit: Based on the GVWR of your truck information technology sounds like its a Ford F350 single rear bike. If the pivot weight is 2500 you should be right below the 9900 number. My F350 unloaded weight is 6800. The unloaded weight for your truck should be on the registration.

Ok. Perchance for the weight of a 1 ton. Merely why does an old volkwagen pickup still have commercial fees in kommifornia?

Because information technology has an open box type bed.
