Pick-a-Plate Online!

A recreational vehicle is defined as "Every camping trailer, motor home, mini-motor home, travel trailer, truck camper or van camper used primarily for recreational purposes and not used commercially nor owned by a commercial business" (625 ILCS 5/1-169).

Recreational Trailers are designed to provide living quarters for recreational, camping or travel use, and are of a size or weight that does not require an over-dimension permit when towed on a highway. Vanity and Personalized Recreational Trailer license plates are available. Numbers precede letters on these license plates (625 ILCS 5/3-405.1).

NOTE: Safety tests are not required for these Second Division vehicles (small trucks and vehicles with recreational vehicle license plates) having a gross vehicle weight of 8,000 pounds or less.
