Surrender the tag?

We have Good Sam Insurance and I called to have the motorhome insurance put on "in storage" for a reduce premium while in storage. I was told I would have to surrender the tag to MV. Is this true? It would cost plenty to get a new tag when we were ready to resume travel. I cancelled the "in storage" figuring it wasn't worth it and that is part of why I went with GS insurance.

  • just drop the liability down to state minimum and you should be OK.
    bumpy
  • In La not insured surrender plate. Failure to do so results in loss of DL.
  • In Pennsylvania if you take the insurance off your vehicle you are required to turn in your tag.
  • We do it with our truck the last few winters.

    Never had to turn in the plate.

    We have run into an issue that we can't renew the registration while it's in storage as the state doesn't consider storage insurance legitimate for registration but once registered, no issues putting it into storage coverage.
