Registering a Marietta purchase in Cobb County

A vehicle bought here is titled and registered where you live, not in Floyd County. For Marietta that is Cobb County, 42 miles from the lot.

The state collects its title ad valorem tax once, when the vehicle is titled in Cobb County. On purchases since it came in, it stands in for the old annual ad valorem bill. The current figure and the calculation are on the Department of Revenue's own page, so use theirs rather than an estimate, ours included.

Our side of the title work is handled here in Rome; the registration itself happens in Cobb County. The state routes the title application and the tax through the buyer's county, meaning Cobb County on a Marietta sale rather than Floyd.

Emissions rules for Marietta buyers

Cobb County is one of the 13 Georgia counties covered by the state's emissions inspection program. Whether a given vehicle needs a test follows where it will be registered, not where you buy it, so buying in Rome does not change what Cobb County asks of you.

Exemptions exist and they change, so read the program's own page before you register in Cobb County. Floyd County, where our lot sits, is outside the program, which changes nothing about a Cobb County registration.

Worth knowing before the drive

Everything on the lot has a clean title and no reported frame damage, with a history report on most units. The further the drive, the more that matters, since it is what a photo will not tell you. What a branded title costs you ›

Questions from Marietta buyers

How far is Cochran Motor Company from Marietta?

About 42 miles. We are at 1023 N Broad St in Rome, Georgia, and Marietta, Georgia sits southeast of us. That is the only address, and it is where you see any vehicle.

Does buying 42 miles away in Rome change the emissions test in Cobb County?

Cobb County is inside the program, and the test follows your registration address in Marietta, not our address in Rome. Exemptions exist and they change, so check the program's own page for the vehicle you are looking at.

Do you handle title and tag work for buyers outside Floyd County?

Yes. Georgia has the title application and the title ad valorem tax go to the county where you live, so a Marietta purchase is titled in Cobb County rather than in Floyd County. We handle our side of the paperwork here in Rome.

How long does it take to drive up from Marietta?

About 70 minutes by car, most of it on Larry McDonald Memorial Highway (I 75), give or take traffic. Call (706) 237-7207 first and the vehicle will be out front when you arrive.

Can you hold something while I drive up from Marietta?

We can. Ring (706) 237-7207 and we will set it aside and have it out front for you. Things sell through the week, so it is worth doing from Marietta.
