Registering a Summerville purchase in Chattooga County

Buying 18 miles away in Rome does not move your paperwork: title and tag stay with Chattooga County, handled at the Chattooga County Tax Commissioner in Summerville.

Georgia's title tax is a one-time charge that lands when the title is issued. It replaced the annual ad valorem bill that used to come around every year on newer purchases. Read the current figure off the Department of Revenue's page rather than any estimate, ours included, since it is theirs to change.

Our side of the title work is handled here in Rome; the registration itself happens in Chattooga County. Under Georgia's rules the dealer submits the title application and the tax to the buyer's own county, so a Summerville sale goes to Chattooga County.

The Chattooga County emissions question

Georgia runs its emissions inspection program in 13 counties, and Chattooga County is not one of the 13 Georgia counties covered.

The covered counties are listed on the program's official site, worth a look if you later move out of Chattooga County. Our own county is outside it as well, which is why the 18 miles between Summerville and the lot make no difference here.

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 Summerville buyers

How far is Cochran Motor Company from Summerville?

Around 18 miles. Summerville lies northwest of the lot at 1023 N Broad St in Rome, Georgia. One address, and everything is shown to you there.

Do I need an emissions test to register in Chattooga County?

No. The program does not cover Chattooga County, so a Summerville registration carries no emissions test. The county list is published on the program's official site if you later move.

Do you handle title and tag work for Chattooga County buyers?

Yes. Georgia has the title application and the title ad valorem tax go to the county where you live, so a Summerville purchase is titled in Chattooga County, through the Chattooga County Tax Commissioner in Summerville. We handle our side of the paperwork here in Rome.

What is the drive time from Summerville to the lot?

About 30 minutes by car, most of it on Martha Berry Highway (US 27), give or take traffic. Call (706) 237-7207 first and the vehicle will be out front when you arrive.

Will you keep one back for me until I get there?

Yes. Call (706) 237-7207 and we will hold it and have it pulled up front. Stock turns over weekly, so from Summerville that is worth doing rather than taking the chance.
