Last year I paid $118 for trailer plates. The sec of state website says $18. Did they roll it back to where it was before?

I didn't get the renewal for my boat trail yet but in the mail I got my renewal for my 6x10 trailer and it's 118 bucks. Anybody know what "ST" plates are for and the cost??
I just read where the legislators were trying to get it rolled back, so doubt if they have yet. Will be getting my renewal notice by the end of March, so will find out soon. That $100 increase was so damn aggravating.Quote:

ST plates are semi-trailer plates. Don't know the costQuote:

Recreational Trailers are campers (RV). My 5th wheel is $30 annually.Quote:

Mando,
Can you please provide more info about this type of license plate?
How or where to find this information?
Thank you.
Mando,
Thank you for posting this info.

I found that they, DMV, will not offer the ST plates you have to request them.
Well I just walked out of a DMV office $305 lighter in the pocketbook. Of course I had a new trailer which needed a title, plates and registration good thru April of this year, and went ahead with registering thru April of 2022 to avoid another trip. TA plates of course. Maybe they will pass reduced pricing by the time I need to renew again, but then we are talking about Illinois.
Lower the cost......hot air from the windbags
Jut got my renewal for April 118.00

I hope it went back to $18
Not yet. Just paid the full $118. Should arrive any day now. This makes absolutely no sense.Quote:

I don't know about anyone else but I have NEVER in my 69 yrs. ever seen a tax/fee go down once it has been raised:twocents
Illinois is a joke
I bought the state plates for boat trailer an utility, $19.00 each. You need to ask for the state plate. While standing in line I read everything in MV and not one word about state license.
The ST plate isn't a state plate. It's a semi trailer plate.Quote:

Southern Illinois. I have four "small trailer" plates. One big boat, one small home made small boat trailer, one small cargo trailer and one 20' flatbed trailer.
I got one yesterday, greenville DMV, for our utility trailer. Lady in front of us got one also. $25, good for life. Unless it gets changed.
Holding off on the boat, as trying to sell it. Plus, I'd like to weigh it, see if that would put me over the 8000# gross limit for the truck plates.
Called a local grain facility for permission to get some trailer weights. I took both trailers, got weights hooked to the truck ( for these weights I wasn't in the truck), trailer axles only, then dropped the trailers for total trailer weights. Tow vehicle - Nissan Frontier, crew cab, 4wd, 5' bed, 3/4 + fuel, normal stuff I always carry (which is wwaaayyyy to much!) = 4690#'s.
- Our 5X10 tilt trailer and truck - 5450#'s, trailer axle weight of 680#'s, total trailer weight of 760#'s. This includes spare tire, small ammo can tool box on the trailer (full of straps, etc), PT 2X's for a floor, 12" tall metal sides. Normal, ready to be used. This trailer has a 2000# axle.
- Boat with the truck - 7190#'s, trailer axle weight of 2300#'s, total weight of 2500#'s. This is a 1987 Skeeter fiberglass, 17', 115HP, 6" manual jackplate, 21 gallon fuel tank (3/4 full), 4 batteries, spare tire, on-board charger, foot control tm. NO gear, tackle, tools, etc. Not sure of the rated axle weight on this trailer.
st plates are life time plates .... 1 time fee 25 dollars
Not making any suggestion. DMV. Benton, IL.Quote:
