How to sell a RV in Oregon

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 Oregon 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. Oregon 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 Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services if Oregon 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 (or Oregon's Form 735-501), the signed title and your ID to the Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services.
  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 Oregon'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 Oregon checklist to the pack, so the handoff is finished the day you sign.

Oregon RV bill of sale questions

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

Oregon requires a bill of sale in common situations, such as when the title does not show the purchase price. Oregon accepts its Vehicle Bill of Sale (735-501) or any document with the VIN, a statement releasing interest, the seller's printed name and signature and the date; it is required when the title is missing or does not name the buyer. Plates stay with the seller. Sellers notify DMV of the sale within 10 days. Oregon publishes Form 735-501 for this; the PDF from this page carries the same information and is accepted alongside it.

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

Oregon 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 Oregon?+

To the Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services 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.
