Why do I now qualify for a noncommercial trailer license plate?
HB 114 increases the maximum allowable weight of noncommercial trailers from 3,000 to 10,000 pounds.
Non-commercial trailer plates are issued based upon the unladen weight of the trailer. The tax rate is $1.40 per one hundred pounds, thereafter $.85 per one hundred pounds up to 2,000 lbs.
The fees can be found at the following link: http://ohiobmv.com/registration_non_com_trailer_chart.stm
