I see you're a Virginian...presumably you're already prepared to bypass State laws requiring in-state registration, but here's a heads-up.
Aside from state requirements, Roanoke is one of many counties that impose property taxes on trailers, and getting around that could prove problematic. link.
Your County at least appears to be less aggressive than, say, Arlington County, which actually goes so far as to maintain a hotline for folks to report out-of-state registered vehicles. Link
Roanoke County doesn't seem to go that far, but since there's evidently p.p. tax due/owing no matter WHERE the trailer is registered, you may want to think twice about putting South Dakota Plates into a system where the State of Virginia might start asking questions.
This guy tried to avoid county use tax!!
