RV & Motorhome Registration in Wyoming

RVs are as common a summertime sight on Wyoming roads as the wild horses galloping through the southwestern expanses of the state, or the bison roaming Yellowstone. Each year there seems to be even more taking to the highways as the upper reaches of the Baby Boomer generation begin to retire.

While a good chunk of these moving motels come and go with the seasons and are not bearing the bucking bronco plates of Wyoming, there is still quite a motor home population in the state. And, most likely, the pool of perspective buyers is going to continue to grow. Thus, questions will arise about how to get these rolling homes street legal. The fact of the matter is that it is not complicated at all.

Titling and registering an RV (motor home) in Wyoming is relatively the same as the process one goes though when registering any other type of applicable motor vehicle. The registration and the titling sections of this site provide a comprehensive overview of the procedures of each.

Ultimately, the main difference between registering a motor home and a standard passenger vehicle is the annual cost. Many of the smaller RVs may fall into a weight category similar to a monster SUV. Thus, they require only the standard $15 yearly state tax. But some of the larger models will be judged on weight, and the more the vehicle weighs, the more the state charges. Fees can shoot all the way up to $60.

Also, because motor homes tend to be priced higher than regular vehicles, and county registration fees are based on sticker price, it quickly becomes obvious that you will be paying more annually to own a motor home. Of course, that is nothing compared to the fun factor of an RV, or the mammoth savings in airfare, food costs, and accommodation.
