How do you get in-house plates?

[AWW_Spencerport]

Were a smaller dealership. Only 50 cars. Sell about 20 a month. We always had a lot kid that went to the DMV and back getting plates. I was wondering, how do you get in-house plates? We were running our numbers and we spend thousands just going back and forth from the DMV. Especially when sales person or the lot kid screws up and has to go back and forth.

1) How do you get in-house plates?
2) How does the system work?
3) Are small dealerships eligible?
4) Does it cost more/less/same?

Thanks everyone.

In SC you have to sell a certain amount of cars to qualify for electronic registrations. So most small dealers don't qualify. Not sure what NY policies are. If you're only running about 20 deals couldn't you just send someone once every two weeks? In SC we have 45 days to register I think all states are at least 30.

I dont believe that you can get house plates in NY I have worked for two franchise dealers in upstate NY and we never had house plates If there are errors you may want to look at your title clerk because she/he is the one that does the paper work and that is where the screw up would be at not the poor lot kid who stands in the DMV line waiting to turn in the dmv forms that your title clerk filled out!
