New York paperwork before the move

I could not confirm a statewide New York tax release or town moving form from published sources. Before you book a date, ask your town or county assessor about taxes and your destination town about a placement permit.

  • Have your title ready
  • Ask the assessor about unpaid taxes
  • Ask the town or park about approval at the new site

See our permits guide.
