Does NC give a refund if turn a weighted tag in early? I turned one in back in the summer (about 6-7 months early) and yesterday got a credit into my checking account from the NCDMV. Not real sure what's going on with that.
 
Yes. You can definitely uprate a tag midway through by paying the difference, and I think they will issue a refund for going the other way.

Every refund I ever received for tags or taxes was because I asked for it. If I didn't ask for it I never got it.

Yeah, I was pretty shocked/confused when checking my balance this morning.
 
Gal at the tag office told me one time, if I wanted to save the money...if you can do without towing for a few weeks, just de-rate the weight three or so weeks before renewal, then put the weight back on when you renew. This was about 5 years ago, said she had several folks that do it every year. Never tried it, going to the DMV an extra trip never seemed worth that money.
