How to sell a RV in Delaware

An RV bill of sale covers motorhomes, campers, travel trailers and fifth wheels. Motorhomes need an odometer reading like any motor vehicle; towable campers do not. Every state titles RVs through the DMV, so the buyer will need the signed title and this bill of sale to register.

Seller steps

  1. Confirm you hold clear title. If a lender is on the title, get the lien release before you list it.
  2. Agree on the price and fill in the Delaware RV bill of sale above with the buyer. Record the VIN and the exact odometer reading.
  3. Both parties sign and each keeps a copy. Delaware does not require a notary.
  4. Sign the title over to the buyer exactly as your name appears on it, and complete the odometer section on the title if the RV has one.
  5. File a notice of sale or release of liability with the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles if Delaware offers one, remove your plates if the state keeps plates with the seller, and cancel the insurance once the buyer has driven away.

Buyer steps

  1. Bring the signed bill of sale, the signed title and your ID to the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles.
  2. Expect to pay sales or use tax on the price shown on the bill of sale, plus title and registration fees.
  3. Register within Delaware's deadline, commonly 10 to 30 days from the sale date, to avoid late penalties.

Before you sign

  • Note whether it is a motorhome (odometer required) or a towable (no odometer).
  • List every included item: generator, solar, hitch, leveling blocks, furniture.
  • Check for a lien; many RVs are financed for 10 to 15 years.
  • Photograph the VIN plate and the data sticker near the door.

Why a bill of sale matters for a RV

  • RVs are high-value and often sold with generators, hitches and furnishings that should be listed.
  • The DMV uses the price for sales tax, which on a $40,000 rig is real money.
  • Motorhomes need federal odometer disclosure; this form includes it.
  • An as-is clause protects the seller from water-damage and appliance claims later.

Selling a RV? The $19 sell-your-vehicle kit adds a signed release of liability and a Delaware checklist to the pack, so the handoff is finished the day you sign.

Delaware sellers complete the Assignment of Certificate of Title with the buyer's name, date of sale, purchase price and odometer reading, ideally at a DMV facility; the price on the title sets the document fee. A bill of sale is accepted for a temporary tag and as backup. A penalty applies if the title application is more than 30 days after purchase.

Delaware RV bill of sale questions

Is a bill of sale required to sell a RV in Delaware?+

Delaware does not require a bill of sale, but the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles recommends one. Delaware sellers complete the Assignment of Certificate of Title with the buyer's name, date of sale, purchase price and odometer reading, ideally at a DMV facility; the price on the title sets the document fee. A bill of sale is accepted for a temporary tag and as backup. A penalty applies if the title application is more than 30 days after purchase. Delaware has no mandatory form, so any complete, signed bill of sale like the one generated here is accepted.

Does a Delaware RV bill of sale need to be notarized?+

Delaware does not require notarization. Two signatures are enough. If you want extra certainty, the ready-to-sign pack includes a notary acknowledgment page you can use anyway.

Where does the buyer take the bill of sale in Delaware?+

To the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles or the county office that handles vehicle registration, together with the signed title, proof of insurance where required, and payment for tax and fees.

Does an RV bill of sale need an odometer reading?+

Only for motorhomes (Class A, B and C). Travel trailers, fifth wheels and pop-ups have no odometer, so leave that field blank; the generator hides the disclosure page for towables when the odometer is empty.

Can I sell a camper without a title?+

Some states exempt older or lighter campers from titling. If there is no title, the bill of sale becomes the main proof of ownership, so fill it out completely and get it notarized if your state asks for that.
