Frequently Asked Questions
What is a trailer bill of sale?
A trailer bill of sale documents the private sale of a utility trailer, cargo trailer, travel trailer, or camper. It records the purchase price, trailer details, and the identities of buyer and seller.
Do all trailers need to be titled?
Not in every state. Titling requirements vary and often depend on the trailer's weight. Many states only require titles for trailers above a certain gross vehicle weight (commonly between 1,500 and 3,000 lbs). Lighter trailers may require only registration. Check your state DMV for current rules.
What information should a trailer bill of sale include?
Include the VIN (if the trailer has one), year, make, type, weight, length, color, sale price, date, and full names and signatures of both buyer and seller.
Does a trailer bill of sale need to be notarized?
Notarization is not required by most states for trailer sales, but a notarized bill of sale provides additional legal protection in the event of a dispute.
