Tiny Home 2" Too Wide

[RVTRKN]

102" plus awning, is over 102" and would require a oversized permit if commercial. The weigh station in the far North West corner of Arizona, where Interstate 15 crosses through a very small part of Arizona, preys on commercial RV haulers. As a RV hauler, when you go through the scales, 99.9 percent of the time you will be directed into the inspection area where you go inside and show all of your permits, not just a oversized permit. They will keep you there until you pay for your permits, and if you have none, it will get expensive. Its criminal if you ask me, your on an very small stretch of interstate that crosses Arizona that federal funds payed for it, and the only thing out there is desert, and they take advantage of that fact. Its kinda like having to pay the toll through the Panama Canal, or go around South America to the Pacific Ocean.

Back to the OP pulling a small house, it is obvious that it is a commercial haul when your pulling a house. You might get away with removing your magnetic mat on your doors with all of your commercial truck info pulling an RV and sliding by a weigh station, but not pulling a house.

All of the AZ weigh stations view commercial trucks as ATMs, the one in the NW corner isn't the only one that has wanted to see my over wide permit. My point was, as you say, with no commercial markings you can drive on by. Transporter plates are a give away for RV haulers but if the little house has a temporary state registration in view I think there wouldn't be a problem.
