If you plan on using the trailer at or less than 3,000 pounds gross weight (weight of the trailer + weight of the load), then title & registration in Wisconsin is optional. Anything more than that weight, and you do need title & registration. Fees vary based on weight. Even if registration is optional, if you think you might ever use the trailer out-of-state, registration is a good idea. Some other states do require registration of small trailers. You also must register if you are going to rent it out to others for profit, or otherwise use it as part of a business.<br><b>References : </b><br>http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/drivers/vehicles/title/mobile-home.htm (Scroll down to "Gross weight trailers") It depends on the weight of the trailer, and, how you intend to use it.
