Colorado paperwork before the move
Colorado counties handle mobile home moving paperwork, and steps differ by county. In Larimer County, for example, you notify the Assessor, pay taxes, and the Treasurer issues an authentication form and moving permit for $10. Check your county before you book a date.
- Notify the county assessor that the home is moving
- Pay property taxes with the county treasurer, since Larimer County requires one year in advance when a home leaves the county
- Report the new location to the new county within 20 days of arrival
