Anyone in Massachusetts? I’m looking to buy my own truck and lease on with local company. How much to register and get base plates? Any help would be appreciated thanks in advance
In Minnesota mine are around 2,100 a year. If I'm not mistaken it's based off of how much you run in certain states.
Should be between 1500 and 2000k. If you need a specific number you should contact them directly for the most accurate answers. First year or two it's the highest because they estimate your state mileage. After you've ran them through a base reporting period you'll have actual state mileage to report and the price will drop.

I paid $1850 in Iowa. It is all based off the previous year. If you don't have that, they will use a basic charge they have created.
Question what are base plates is that the same as IRP? I just want to know because I run county plates so its based on weight only. I want to get state plates so I can derate my GVWR and the county wont do it. Also it be easier to do work in MN and WI, I can only go so far on county plates. I thought Iowa IRP plates was weight as well?
Massachusetts doesn't prorate there IRP plates and a new account with no actual miles you will be paying all estimated miles.I believe it should be around $1500 or better. Oh and even better news those plates need to be renewed July 1
When we set up our apportioned plates, we were told we would pay the max since we had no history (It was around $3,500 for 3 trucks in Ohio) but that we would be issued a refund at the end of the year based on actual travel after we reported to IRP.
