Mobile Home, Heavy Truck Registrations Due December 31
December 19, 2018
Scott Lunsford, Escambia County Tax Collector, reminds those residents who own mobile homes, heavy trucks, nine-passenger, for hire and commercial vehicles to renew their registration by December 31.
Mobile homes taxed as real property (RP) must display a permanent RP decal. Mobile homes not taxed as real property are subject to annual registration fees. Each section of the mobile home requires a separate registration, that must be displayed and visible from the roadway. Registration fees are based on the length of the mobile home and must be renewed by December 31. A delinquency fee will be charged if the registration is not renewed by January 10, 2019.
Florida law requires that registrations for all trucks with an empty weight of 5,000 pounds or more expire in December. The registered owner is required to declare a gross vehicle weight (GVW). Registration fees are determined by the gross vehicle weight.
Citizens are encouraged to visit EscambiaTaxCollector.com, click the Express Lane – Same Day Vehicle/Vessel Registration Renewal and Pickup button to renew online fee free with eCheck. Renewals processed before 3 p.m. Monday through Friday can be picked up the same day. Renewals after 3 p.m. can be picked up the next business day.

It would be nice if the legislators would kindly update the regulations, specifically what defines a “heavy” truck these days. Look at the GVWR of just about any decently equipped light duty pickup made in the last 15 years and try to find one under 5000 lbs. There is more than one SUV even that’s over 5000lbs empty, look it up.
