    I just booked my first ever load picking up in Kentucky going to North Carolina. However I also just realised I don't have a kyu number on my truck. Can I still roll into Kentucky coming from Ohio? Are there any coops? Can I pay for a permit at the scale house?

    I don't think you need the numbers on your truck. I don't have any on mine. It used to be required to have the last 6 of your vin on there, but not any more either.

    As far as stopping at the first weight station (like NM or OR), it was not an option when i got mine.

    It's no longer required to have the numbers on your trucks. You can apply for them and receive them I believe the same day, or get a temporary permit.

    [TD="class: ms-vb2 ms-vb-lastCell, bgcolor: #F9F9F9"]A: All incoming applications are processed within 7 to 14 business days of the receipt of the application. When your application is fully processed, you will receive by mail a letter of issuance with your new tax license number on it, as well as the necessary quarterly tax forms to be filed.

    [TD="class: ms-vb2"]Q: Is there a quicker way to get a KYU number?
    [/TD]
    [TD="class: ms-vb2 ms-vb-lastCell"]A: Yes. You may come in to our One Stop Shop here in Frankfort, KY and get the license issued same day. Alternatively, you could contact one of the many service providers that can issue the permanent KYU tax license via the World Wide Web. Your company’s regular service provider may be signed up to do this through us, so please ask. If you need further information regarding this service, you may contact this office at (502) 564-1257. *NOTE – these agencies may charge a processing fee. If you apply by mail however, there is no fee to obtain a KYU tax license number. Depending on your operations, you may also decide to obtain a temporary KYU permit if your permanent tax license number has not yet been issued or you will be running in KY less than three times a year.
