Bless you , Victoria .
VICTORIA
Victoria continues to have the best , fairest , cheapest system for registering a trailer , including caravans . Regardless of the weight , size or number of axles , Victoria charges a flat rate of $ 62.40 . And no one can argue with that .
SUMMING UP
Naturally , all states would require your van to be registered in the state in which you normally live ; however , as you can see , how much you ’ ll fork over to re-register your van , and the hoops through which you have to jump , varies significantly from state to state .
A final word of advice . Because many states charge according to the weight of your van , it would be worth having it independently weighed to make sure you don ’ t pay more than required .
NUMBER ’ S UP
ADR 61 / 02 requires that all vans have provision for a registration plate to be secured to the rear of the van no higher than 1.3m from the ground . Police have been known to issue fines for non-compliant vans , so it might be worth getting out the measuring tape .
