What states can you legally pull a fifth wheel and a tandem trailer through ?

Question

What states can you legally pull a fifth wheel trailer (30 FT) and an attached 12 foot utility trailer thru when pulled by a 3/4 ton pickup ?

Answer 1

You can pull a 5th wheel and a tandem trlr threw any state as long as you are PERMITTED to pull threw that state and LICENSED to pull a trlr. If your in doubt since it's your 3/4 ton, I would advise you to call your local State or DOT department and ask them if there is any other specifications you need to meet. As well as calling the local authorities in the states you are going to be pulling threw to make sure you don't need any kind of special permits. You can find the numbers in front of your Atlas or on line.

Answer 2

That will be a tough question to answer but why don't yo just call your local department of motor vehicles and they should be able to get you the correct answer.

Answer 3

do you mean tandem trailerS? like 2 trailers?

Answer 4

I know a guy who delivers new trailers for a manufacturer, and he does this, but not sure what all states he runs.  He'll pull a trailer behind his dually and a tagalong trailer behind that one.  I know at least you can do it in NC.

Answer 5

I'm not sure.

I do know you can NOT do it in New Hampshire.
