    Anyone got any ideas...? When I go back to work might be working for 2 different carries . Maybe in the same day. I’ve got my numbers on the sidesof a protec box aluminum.

    Want to be able to cover them up and display another companies numbers when needed.....

    This is all I’ve found......

    One of those placard flip things?

    The real question is —- how the heck do you do that paperwork wise?

    Back in the day you could display all your assigned numbers on the tractor together in the open even if you had multiple leases. Is that not legal anymore?
    Example= you are Cat Sdp kick butt transport
    USDOT xxxxxxxxxxxx
    Leased to yyyyyyyyyyy
    Usdot xxxxxxxxx.
    And leased to zzzzzzzzzzzz
    Usdot xxxxxxxxxx

    As far as I have every known you can only be leased to one carrier. The truck cannot be under control of multiple companies at one time, the legal issues would be immensely complex. You could trip lease to another carrier while leased to one permanently, in which case you still just display the information for the one you have the permanent lease with.

    Review very carefully

    One carrier is me and lease to someone in the winter.... usually pull my numbers off and put theirs on.Lots of construction guys do it up here.

    There’s nothing moving in the winter. So to work you have to lease in somewhere till spring......
