Thread: Trailer Title

Here in Kentucky, I was able to apply for a new S/N & then a new title. Took a few weeks. My county clerk was extremely helpful. I didn't even realize I needed it till I was in the process of turning my old boat in on a trade. Had that boat for years with no issues.

Check to see if there is a serial number on it, it is usually up front on the tongue and usually by the ball hitch. If not, I would make sure there are no factory stickers on it and then bring it to the LSP and tell them you have a home made trailer that you need to get titled. Let me tell you from experience though, make sure you have safety chains on it before you bring it up there. I had to make a couple of trips before I was able to get mine titled. If everything goes well with them, the will stencil you new #'s on the tongue and issue you a title.

Got to love dealing with things such as this

It is an issue because thieves steal trailers. I have a utility trailer and was warned that if stolen, the theif could get a title by claiming they built it. There are no serial numbers on my trailer. The manufacturer said numbers can get removed so he doesn’t bother.

I think everyone is going to be suspicious of the OP and make him work for it.
