Texas Trailer License Renewals

Okay... Just in case you are ever leaning against the back of your camper watching the black tank drain and happen to notice that your Texas trailer license plate has been expired for two months,I thought it would be prudent to share some information with you. Here is what I learned on Wednesday:

1)It can cost $215 in Bexar County (my home county) if you are ticketed towing a trailer without a current license plate.

2)You can not renew your plates anywhere but the county you reside in.

3) If you are caught in this situation, you can go to the nearest tax assessor's office in any Texas county and purchase a "one-trip" permit for $5, which is good for fifteen days.

4)I need to do a better job of keeping up with these kinds of things!

Happy trails!
