Ontario Service/In-Transit

This black on yellow Ontario licence plate was originally categorized as "Dealer/Service" starting in 1982. In December 2004, Dealers branched off into their own dedicated category and plate series, tracked elsewhere on this website. These yellow plates were re-defined and Service garages continued using them from 674-DKA to end of DKZ, followed by DWx and then DXx. Garages could also continue renewing their existing stock of older yellow plates. Those can be spotted by their lower suffixes and post-2005 renewal date stickers.

Transporters started using these yellow floater plates in 2004 or perhaps a bit earlier. They previously used the old orange on white "In-Transit" paper single-trip permit which was confirmed as high as #317000 and in use as late as February 2002.
