    I'm permitted to do intrastate in Texas and California.

    I was looking at a load today that picked up and delivered in Washington state but I know that you have to be registered to do intrastate in Washington.

    Have any of you done intrastate loads in states that you haven't registered in?

    Is it a really expensive proposition if you get caught doing things like this?

    Thank you

    i believe you can purchase a one-trip permit to cross the state border.

    Sometimes they enforce it, other times they don't. Can be a simple purchase of a permit or OOS. If you register with all that require it, be prepared for their tax people to get involved.

    Texas

    I like to run out west and I was looking at a Washington to Washington load the other day.

    I don't think I'll make intrastate moves illegally because the penalties look pretty steep.

    I guess enforcement is spotty in some states but it sounds risky regardless.

    Just make a fake BOL heading to the next state in whatever direction you're going to while doing the intrastate.

    Now we're talking! Haha I used to do stuff like that in the 90's.

    Good idea!
