Made an appointment online and was able to have my apt 10m early. No wait time. The gal helped me troubleshoot an issue I wasn’t expecting (the issue was my fault)

I purchased a 1987 Yamaha 4x4 atv that has never been titled in Idaho. I have a dealer title that has never been processed. The previous owner signed it over to me with a bill of sale. What else do I need to get a title?

Donald Scantling | Oct 1, 2021
Randy Nelson | Oct 1, 2021

Go down to DMV and tell them what you have and they might just go ahead and title it. I had a dirt bike with no title and they helped me get it done. Your situation sounds a little bit better than what I had.

All new plates are mailed now so even if you go to the DMV, you'll have to wait for them snail mail. I'd go ahead and try ordering them on-line.

mary kranz | Oct 1, 2021
jeff aggson | Oct 1, 2021

No appointment is needed, but if you have the time to wait it helps. But if you go early in the morning like 7:30am and get in line, the first 15 people get to come in and get serviced. Otherwise you will be put on a wait list and they will call you when it's your turn. I showed up at 7:30 and was done by 9am.

marianne Irvine | Oct 1, 2021
Shane Wilson | Oct 1, 2021

Yes. They charge a convenience fee, a couple bucks, to use a debit/credit. Listen to this, go online and make a APPOINTMENT if at all possible. With the covid thing, they only let in a certain amount of people -- no matter how early you get there. The wait is brutal. I waited 2 hours doing the very thing your asking about. Also they close at 4pm now. Apparently they upgraded to a shorter work day. (Can anybody do this I wonder)
