Dear Honk: I received my registration renewal, for more than $500, for the travel trailer we bought last year. While utility trailers have permanent plates, are used often, but not charged much of a fee, travel trailers get billed annually based on their value, even though they are only on the road a few times a year. The renewal also says the non-op option is not available.
“Utility trailers and other trailers that are not designed for human habitation are registered under the Permanent Trailer Identification program and are not subject to annual registration,” spokeswoman“The registration fees for travel trailers are based on the same factors as a regular automobile,” she said. “Similar to vehicles, trailers are classified based on the body type.
A non-op – officially called a “planned non-operation” – means the owner won’t touch a public roadway for the entire year the registration covers. It costs way less than an annual registration for most, if not all, vehicles. “Travel trailers are excluded from the planned non-operation program,” she added. “Because these trailers are designed for human habitation, their mere presence in the state constitute use/operation.”
