Do you need a USDOT number? Are you debating if you want to display your USDOT number on a magnetic sheet or a professional die cut decal?

You would want to display your USDOT number on a magnet if you use your vehicle for both personal and business use. You might use your dually to pick up kids from school and haul loads, this is perfect for being DOT compliant when you need to. Also, some HOA associations don’t let vehicles have any lettering, so it’s perfect for displaying your info whenever you need it.

If you are a professional trucker and have a vehicle dedicated for trucking, then you would want to go the decal route. Decals are not coming off easy and look very professional. Decals withstand heat, rain, snow and are meant for professional use.

A few things to keep in when selecting your USDOT number is that it must be visible from a distance of at least 50 feet away and your lettering must be 2 inches in height or larger. Your lettering must also contrast for easy readability. You almost must display your us dot number on both sides of the vehicle and the color must contrast with the color of your commercial vehicle.
