Yeah, this is something I am not going to miss with moving out of NC ... ours ran close to $160 this year for our Pod, and even though we will not be residents here after May the state will not reimburse me the difference.

Here in Alberta there is a one time cost of 109.45, you keep your trailer plate for life.
If you want something done right, do it yourself.

I know that select residents of Missouri license their vehicles, trailers, etc in Illinois to avoid paying personal property tax.

Both of our current trailers were 75.00 each, plated in Michigan. In Ohio, 45.00 per year, per trailer. It takes just over 1 1/2 years to pay for the Michigan plate, then the plates are free....

A permanent MI plate for our rPod was $75 in 2009. They used to be around $15, at least for a small trailer, but renewed every year. Cost was based on weight. They still charge based on weight. Here's a fee calculator from the MI Secretary of State:

And I am not trying to start a discussion on rPod weight, either.

I just received our renewal for our 171. Here in Oregon we buy a renewal every two years. My total for two years was $141. Not too bad, but certainly not free. Safe Travels.

I learned this from my neighbor who owns 5 different utility trailers. He learned it word of mouth from someone else. After learning about & then putting it into action on his trailers, I have noticed a significant number of trailers in Northwestern Ohio plated that way. I asked a customer who is an Ohio State Patrolman about Ohio's stance on this. His quote was " Ohio's Stance is that they have no stance". We have run our other trailers 3 years this way with no problems. Other than we've been followed for a seemingly long while on the Ohio Turnpike by a State Trooper a couple of times.
