How much is a car inspection in Massachusetts?

How much are car inspections in Massachusetts? I just got a new job and I'm preparing to move there, but I want to be prepared for all the expenses.

Congratulations on your new job! Most yearly
car inspections
 in
Massachusetts
 will cost $35. If you have a
commercial vehicle
, you should expect to pay a little more, although the actual price will be determined by the size of the vehicle. If you own a motorcycle, your inspection will only cost $15.
Once your car passes the inspection, you’ll receive an inspection sticker, which will be valid for one year. Once your sticker expires, it’s time to come back for another inspection.
When you move to a new state, also remember to update your
car insurance
 policy so it meets
Massachusetts minimum standards
. With
Jerry
,
shopping for auto insurance
 has never been easier, and in a few short clicks, you can check car insurance off your moving list.
