PLEASE NOTE: Due to supply chain issues with the 2026-27 ATV stickers, the Dept. of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife is requesting that all ATV renewals be done online until further notice. We currently only have a single book of stickers and must reserve them for newly purchased ATVs. When we receive additional inventory and can process renewals in office, we will remove this notice.
Can I register my ATV or snowmobile in Blue Hill?
- If you are a resident of Maine, you must live in Blue Hill to register here.
- If you are not a resident of Maine, you may register in any town in Maine.
- If you only plan to ride on your own private land, or with the written permission of the private landowner, you do not need to register your ATV or snowmobile.
- Oversized ATVs (over 65 inches wide or 2000 lbs.) cannot be registered in Maine.
