Expert Reply:
You will need to check with your county because it differs per location. Normally with homemade trailers, which yours would probably qualify as one, you would need to get it inspected by a sheriff or highway patrol. You would then go to the DMV with forms to get a VIN tag that gets fastened to your trailer tongue. But as I said, you will definitely need to check your local laws and rules.
