Relating to: registration of trailers used for transporting manufactured housing units. (FE)

AB 425 creates a special registration plate system for trailers transporting manufactured housing units, eliminating the need for separate trailer registration. It directly affects transporters of manufactured housing, who must apply to the department for a plate based on the combined weight of the unit and trailer, paying a fee similar to standard vehicle registration. The plate allows multiple trailers owned by the same transporter to be used for moving housing units or empty trailers, valid only for the calendar year issued. This simplifies compliance by replacing individual trailer registration with a single annual plate for transporters' equipment.
