Fee Estimates and Ownership Tax
Sniplmage.JPG
The fee estimator on the website is only for Passenger Vehicles, Light Trucks, and Motorcycles. As of right now there is
not a way to get an estimate for a Class D trailer (Popup Camper). There are several factors that go into a Class D vehicle
such as length, width, or if it as bumper pull, or empty weight. Since we do not have set fee's for vehicles in Colorado
we do not feel comfortable giving an estimate over the phone. It is a standard practice amongst Colorado Counties not
to give out estimates over the phone to alleviate any errors.
Ownership tax is set by state statute and the county does not control the fees. If you would like to contact your state
legislature representatives you may find the contact information by calling the Elections Office at 970-304-6525.
We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.

Hello Commissioners,
Recently I contacted the Weld County DMV to get an estimate of fees for my pop up trailer. I was told this was
impossible to do without knowing 3 pieces of information. When I told them I had the information, I was told they could
not enter it in over the phone. I should just pop over...I live an hour away. You are suppose to be transparent, not
publishing this information is a lack of transparency. I should not have to drive over an hour to pop into your office,
stand in your long lines just to try and figure out what I will owe. There should be a way for me or your staff to figure
out this information without having to enter it into a computer system. Should we really be hiring staff who are not
capable of simple math? Is there a reason why this information is not available on your website for me to at least plug in
and figure out myself? Why is it available for cars and trucks and but not pop up campers? Also, why am I being
charged a ownership tax? This is yearly tax charged to me for simply owning and pop up camper...I have not driven it
anywhere. I would like information about how a tax payer would go about getting rid of this tax, be I pretty sure Weld
County residents do not want to charged for something they already paid tax on when they bought it. Double
whammy. I am disgusted with this practice.
I look forward to your response.
