I was curious about this too even though I have two trailers. (i for boat other for hauling) There isn't an almanac inspection for a trailer, but they do accept to have a tag and believe it or not Mecklenburg county will send you a belongings tax beak for it. In fact I remember y'all will have to declare it with the local taxation office. It's a bit ridiculous as I become a bill from the tax function where the tax is less than $2 so I doubtable it costs them more to send the beak and collect the revenue enhancement.

None the less, I couldn't find anything specific on the NCDOT site except for "Individuals coming from a land that does non championship and register trailers would need to call 919-715-7000." I know that people build their own as I've seen numerous ones around here, and there is a guy in Lincolnton that builds trailers for sale.

For a home congenital trailer caput to the tag office and tell them you desire to register a home built trailer. They volition ask a few questions then issue you a vin number and form to have signed by Highway Patrolman. You have to get the trailer tongue and axle stamped with the vin number.

You then take it to a Highway Patrol office for them to inspect the stamps, check the lights etc.. If it all works they sign the form and you take it back to the license plate office and they'll get you lot a championship and tag.

It'southward a pain in the arse and will price ya about $150.00!

WOW! I might equally well buy a brand new trailer at that betoken.

I judge I should ask and then. If I buy a trailer and get it all registered etc. And then I build a mini camper on information technology. Is that legal / Does information technology go grandfathered? How would they know if non?

I had a friend that bought a trailer a while back, registered information technology and put a plate on it. They sent him a lovely tax neb of around $100 each twelvemonth. The trailer itself but toll $900. And so over 9 years he would pay the toll of the trailer over.

That trailer got stolen. No one can help find information technology, information technology's lost. He thought it was covered on his motorcar policy simply it wasn't. And so the second time around, he bought some other trailer, he skipped bothering to annals it. He has paperwork on information technology that shows he paid for it, merely otherwise at that place are no tags.

He drives it effectually all over the place, right in front of the police force and has never been stopped or questioned...I'm sure but similar the people driving effectually with his old trailer.

The advantage being if you don't register the trailer, unless yous go far an accident with it or get pulled over for whatsoever other reason, the law won't bother you and most chiefly you won't have to pay the registration fee, the almanac tag fee or the annual property tax fees.

Yous should've taken pictures of the building of the trailer to bear witness that you made it. In theory all y'all would have to say if y'all got pulled over, would exist that you lot were on you lot planned to get it registered tomorrow...

So in my stance, the question is, do you plan to insure the trailer? If so you will have to pay for all the other extras. If you don't program to insure information technology and but buy a really good lock, then I don't remember it's worth it to jump through all the hoops... just my two cents.

I have stiff negative feelings towards the charging of property tax each year on things like our cars and and then if I can avoid it I will. I would consider a move to SC side by side time I motility if I can avoid taxation like that. Information technology'southward double taxation in my opinion.
