?'s about Commercial Vehicle Registration
As some of you may or may not know, I opened my own landscaping company this year. I use my personal truck and trailer to tow lawnmowers, mulch, or whatever else I am using on a daily basis. Another landscaper from a much more well known company stopped and told me that I need to register my truck as commercial if I plan to use it for work like I do. This has been scaring me more and more because I've had a few other people tell me this. However, my accountant told me that as long as the truck is my personal vehicle, and I am paying for it out of my own pocket without any help from the business, that I do not need to register it commercially so long as I do not put a sign on it. So, I do not have a sign on the truck, but I do use it for work everyday and it is also my personal vehicle. I've tried to search the MVC website but the info I found wasn't very specific, it basically tells you everything about commercial registration except when it is necessary. So, if anyone can help me with more info about commercial registration I'd appreciate it. I'd like to keep the truck registered as my own personal vehicle because my long term plan is to buy a separate truck to be the commercial vehicle so that my truck can be just my personal truck.
