Living in Oregon comes with many different benefits. Great atmosphere and pristine roads are just some of the perks this state has to offer. When you move to this state for the first time, you need to make sure the vehicle you drive is registered with the Oregon DMV. You will need to renew this registration every year. DMV will send you a notice in the mail that will let you know when the renewal is due and what you need to do to deal with it. Here are some of the methods you can use when trying to deal with this registration renewal.
