I just phoned the county clerk.

 

I live in Rutherford County and they do not charge sales tax on Horse trailers.

 

I can get tags in one of two options:

 

1.  $92.00 for a permanent tag that will not have to be renewed.

2.  $14.95 a year and a $25.00 (one time fee to transfer the title to my name)

 

So depending on a person if they plan on having a horse trailer for a several years (5 or more) then it will be cheaper in the long run to get the $92.00 version.

    I've never been stopped.   But called Nashville on this issue a couple years ago and they said that although it's been overlooked, you are supposed to have a tag on it.  If you were stopped for another offense they "could" also ticket you for not haveing a tag.  I think they were wanting to collect the sales tax on a new trailer that you have to pay when you register them and are buying plates.   Our county (Susan and I, Loudon) will charge you sales tax, and that is quite a bit on a new LQ.  But if we drive to the county south of us (Roger R's, Monroe) they don't charge the sales tax, they consider it farm equipment and not taxable.    Doesn't sound like there's much consistancy in this state about such things, so you are apt to get any answer.

Just out of curiosity - have you ever been hassled by police in other states without a tag on your trailer?

am in the Tennessee area and plan on trying an endurance ride sometime next year.  I want to stay in Tennessee for my first few rides so that I do not have to pay for trailer tags that are way expensive.  (You don't have to tag a trailer here unless you go out of state)

As long as you are towing your horse trailer with a vehicle that has Tennessee tags, you do not have to have a tag on your trailer.
There is only one set of rules for doing AERC santioned rides no matter what state you are in.
