I will need to see the vehicle/trailer/motorcycle physically (In Person).
You need to have at least 1 Supporting Document such as: Title, Registration Card, or MCO/MSO.
Additionally, any Vehicles from 1970 and Newer:
The Federal Certification Label (Safety Label) must be on the drivers side door jamb and appear okay. Motorcycles and trailers will have a different label location.
Vehicles 1969 and Older:
Vehicles 1969 and older do not need the US Federal label but DO need at least 1 supporting document.
HOW TO GET YOUR VIN VERIFICATION

Prices will vary depending on your location and needs. Meeting in the Brunswick basin (near Safeway, DMV etc) is simplest for me and will not require any travel fees.
PRICING
Nevada County: 1 Vehicle $100 & possible travel fees depending on location.
Locations near Brunswick (Safeway Parking lot, by the DMV etc.) travel fees are included in base price.
Locations further away may necessitate travel fees. Please feel free to call me for a quote.
Prices are subject to change mostly depending on the price of gas. Your vehicles must be in an easy to get to location with the ability to open the driver side door and the hood. If you have a very old vehicle please make sure to know where the VIN is located and that the VIN plate or stamp is readable or call if you need assistance before scheduling an appointment.
Payment Methods: I accept Cash, Debit, Credit, Venmo and PayPal. No Checks.
WHAT IS A VIN VERIFICATION?
A VIN Verification is a physical inspection of your vehicle (the vehicle must be present) that is required by California's DMV for vehicles coming from out of state, or vehicles who are no longer in the DMV's database.
WHO CAN PERFORM A VIN VERIFICATION?
Only a CA Licensed Private Vehicle Verifier, Auto Club Employee, Peace Officer, The CA DMV, or CHP can perform a VIN Verification. Private VIN Verifiers do charge a fee for their service, but out of all of the options, they are the most convenient, and fastest.
