Anything over a 6x4 needs registering.

It's actually anything longer than 3 metres AND/OR wider than the towing vehicle AND/OR over 750kg empty AND/OR used for commercial purposes (anything to do with work) AND/OR used to carry a boat.

I think it just went up to $31.50 per year.

Thanks all for the advice. I contacted VicRoads today. $34.60 Rego and a one off fee of $14.20 for a number plate. If i cant find a chassis number on my trailer, VicRoads will assign one to it and i just have to stamp it onto the drawbar. Thanks once again Guys.
