Weight tags

First let me say that reading thru you guys forum posts have been very helpful. I am trying to get started in this so please forgive me if I ask what may be deemed as "stupid" questions. I have alot of experience driving one ton trucks with up to 40 foot trailers as well as driving fire trucks. But I have never dealt with the commercial side of it.

A question about the weighted tags:

I am planning on using my F350 and a 24 foot Cargo Hauler, a 40 foor horse trailer and a 28 foor flatbed right now (I will be running smaller loads for now). My truck has just been for personal use so I just have regualr tags on it. If I am running commercially, at that point I will need weight specific tags, correct? Also, when I renew my personal tags later this month, do I need to tell the tag office anything about using my truck for commercial use?

 

Sorry! Alabama

 

But I will be traveling some interstate if that matters.

 

Wedge 542: I will still have to do the commercial ins, right? That quote almost stopped my heart!

On a side note: did you work in the oilfield before you started hauling? Spouse worked with a Wedge in the oilfield, haven't seen in many years, always spoke well of him.
