Trailers first got distinctive license plates in the 1920s, and since then many different types of trailer plates have been issued.

This page includes the following plate types:

Trailer


Trailer plates were first issued in the 1920s, with the earliest known example being from 1929. It's suspected that they started in 1923 when weight class codes were added to truck plates.

In 1940, trailer plates split off into light trailer plates and insert trailer plates, in the way that truck plates were split off into light truck plates and insert truck plates. Trailer plates from the A-D weight class that are used for private purposes received light trailer plates, while trailers used for commercial purposes and trailers beyond the D weight class used insert trailer plates.

Apparently starting in 1960, "A" trailer plates were issued only to private trailers under 3,000 lbs. The registration of such trailers was optional, except for a six-month period in 1976 when all trailers had to register.

Light trailer plates were issued on insert truck plate bases starting in 1967, however plates were issued at the same intervals as light truck plates.

The 1970 base had a strange variation which there was only stubs for the top groove, and the 1974 base had the "74" in two different corners.

In 1979, light trailer plates began using a constant "ZA" prefix and encompassed private-use trailers under 3,000lbs., though several "U-Haul" labelled light trailer plates from as far back as 1982 have been seen. Beginning in 1988, fleets of 100 or more commercial-use trailers under 4,500lbs. were able to use light trailer plates in 6-year intervals; the first of these plates would have expired in 1994. These plates, although identical to regular light trailer plates except for the expiration intervals, are shown with light trailer for hire plates.

In the 1991 plate guide, a "91" base is shown, though all "89" base plates were used until 1994. I'm guessing it was a planned base that was scrapped at the very last minute; if this is the case, it's entirely possible that a batch of these "91" base plates was actually produced but never issued. Light truck for hire plates also had a planned design in 1990 that was evidently scrapped at the very last minute and an actual plate for this scrapped design has been found, so it's not out of the realm of possibility that unused "91" base ZA trailer plates exist.

Currently, light trailer plates are often referred to as "ZA" trailer plates by the WisconsinDOT plate guide.

Light Trailer for Hire


Light trailer for hire plates were issued in 1976 and 1977. They were issued to A weight class trailers for hire only and used light truck for hire blanks.

After 1977, light trailers for hire were issued regular light trailer plates. There was no specific plates for "light trailers for hire," though "U-Haul" labelled plates exist for 1982, 1986, and 1988.

In 1988, light trailers for hire were revalidated on a 6-year cycle. For 1994 and 2000 light trailer for hire plates used unique sticker colors, and as of 2030 they used the same sticker colors as passenger plates.

Heavy Trailer

Heavy trailer plates were first issued in 1940, and were issued to trailers over 8,000lbs. and commercial trailers. The first base was to expire between September 1940 and June 1941, using insert tabs for validation, however a dated "3-31-40" base is known and is categorized here. The 3-31-40 base was only issued to trailers over 14,000lbs. Like heavy truck plates, I suspect that 12-31-39 and 6-30-40 bases may also have been issued, though no documentation or plates have been found yet.

Notably, heavy trailers used full-sized plates for 1942-1944, and were the only plates in the state to receive actual insert tabs during that time. I do not know whether yearly tabs for 1944 were issued in addition to quarterly inserts like they did on heavy truck plates, nor do I know what the colors may be.

1943 Insert Trailer
Mark

Sometime between 1940 and 1947, weight classes beyond N were added, like insert truck plates. Around 1960 all trailers above 3,000lbs. received insert trailer plates and from that point on insert trailer plates in the lighter weight classes became much more common. Conversely, semi trailer plates were introduced in 1956 and insert trailer plates in the heaviest weight classes became almost nonexistent.

Shown in this section is a few mockup tests I made back in March 2024. They're still in development, but they should be relatively accurate representations of what these plates looked like and their approximate fonts. I'm still not sure if I'll permanently include mockups to represent plates like this, or if I'd rather keep this site to images of actual plates only.

Weight classes beyond the Y weight class were added by 1962, which the known weight classes go up to at least YF. It's currently unknown when exactly these heavier weight classes were added, as the DMV plate guides didn't list weight classes beyond Y until 1976.

In 1978, the weight classes shifted along with all other plates in the state of Wisconsin. For the 1978 base, the C weight class for trailer plates has always had a bottom letter of "Z" as opposed to the "A" that all other insert trailer plates used as a bottom letter. The meaning of this is unknown.

In 1994 a new base was issued, and all plates started at xR 1, with x being the weight class. So A weight class plates would start at AR 1, B weight class plates would start at BR 1, and so on. When xR9999 was exhausted with the wide font plates, the bottom letter was incremented to "T," presumably because "S" was in use by tractor plates.

In addition to the usual font variations seen in all plates from 1994-1995, there were also two runs of reflective trailer plates; one in early 1995, and a much more common run in late 2004-early 2005. It's unknown what the run of 1995 plates is, and so far two reflective "trailer" plates have been found from the 1995 run; one 1995 farm trailer plate, and one 1995 insert trailer plate. The 2004-2005 run has at least 5 plates known in the run, and it's presumably plates made on blanks for light truck for hire plates after they were discontinued in 2004.

Around 2009, the Y weight class was added. Like other plates, the 2009 series picked up roughly where the 1994 series left off.

Numbering systems for current trailer plates are overcomplicated. CT plates, which stopped around CT60000 on the 1994 series, jumped to CA10001 beginning with the new 2009 base. Y weight class plates started at YA10001, while all other plates started roughly where the 1994 series left off. Beginning in the early 2020s, numbering systems changed from the standard "R to T to A" serial letter progression to a new system where the bottom letter would increment if the current serial format was exhausted; this meant that AR overflowed to AS, BT overflowed to BU, and more recently PR 999 led to PS 101. CA overflowed to CB as expected, and SR is going to either go to SS 11, SS 51, SR 101, or a variation of those formats in the very near future. Why the serial letter progression has become so complicated is anyone's guess.

In 1980, plates serials were coded by weight class. As before, the numbers start at xF1001, with x being the weight class. Several serial spacing variations are known, however not much is known about them.

In 1992, like all other plates, the X and M weight classes were added. For the 1992 base, there are several plates that received December 1993 insert stickers as opposed to 1993 passenger stickers like they were supposed to, and from that point onward plates issued insert stickers as opposed to passenger stickers were relatively common. Plate serials in the 1994 base started at xF5001, with x being the weight class. The C weight class ran to CF9999 at some point, then wrapped around to CF 1001, and went to CF 5000 before jumping to CF10001.

Additionally, a strange variation where the pre-1995 prefix was used alongside the new narrow numbers font is known for some F weight class farm trailer plates; it isn't known if this variation exists with any other weight classes or other types.

Around 2009 the Y weight class was added along with heavy trailer plates. Additionally, around 2021 G weight class farm trailer plates incremented their bottom letter to "G," changing the bottom letter on farm trailer plates for the first time ever in the plate type's history!

Transferable Trailer


Transferable trailer plates were reportedly issued beginning in July 1973, and have been confirmed to have been issued since at least 1977. They are issued to modular housing units in transportation, and can be transfered from unit to unit freely, hence the name. They are validated with insert stickers, and use weight class stickers.
