Trailer Registration in Florida
All trailers in Florida must be registered with the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV). The registration requirements vary depending on the trailer’s type and weight.
Types of Trailers That Require Registration
- Utility Trailers: Open or enclosed trailers used for general transport.
- Boat Trailers: Designed specifically for transporting boats.
- Travel Trailers: Towable recreational vehicles (RVs) for camping.
- Semi-Trailers: Large trailers used for commercial transportation.
