Thanks Klause - what do you think of the #15 Rosetown to Kenaston option versus going to S'toon looks shorter but don't know the road.

If you are hauling anything in trucks... make sure you have truck safety's done... once you leave Alberta the safety exemption is void... you need log books as well ... and proper log history pretrip one week previous history log books done if Alberta Plates. Purple fuel is ok in vehicle tanks... none in tidy tanks once you leave Alberta.

[grassfarmer]

Thanks folks. Tom are you talking about safety and log books for pickup trucks? surely not?

[Klause]

Your vehicles and trailers will need a safety to be plated in Manitoba.

Technically farming is seen as commercial so a dot officer can stop uou and ask you for a logbook if you are pulling a trailer over 5440 kg however this isn't done unless your equipment is in visibly poor shape or doesn't have working lights.

Also if you are moving livestock make sure your manifest is filled out. Cops will ask you for them especially with out of province plates

[grassfarmer]

Thanks Klause, should be OK on the trailer weight, just packing shop contents and misc. ourselves.
Got commercial truckers hauling machinery and the cattle for us.
Can't take cattle out of AB on a manifest nowadays - need to be brand inspected and a Livestock Movement Permit issued for each load. Been doing that for a few years now shipping bulls to SK and MB.

Ya , and wash the mud off before you leave. We get enough clubroot b/s from oil and line company plot equipment that travel all over hells half acre from Alberta.
J/K - good luck in your travels ..
