### What this is

To sell vehicles, tow them, wreck them or move them in Washington State, a business needs a license from the Department of Licensing. The state publishes the list as one file. This site gives every license a record you can find and cite: type, status, first issue and expiration dates, and whether its bond is active.

### Who uses it

- **Dealers, tow operators and wreckers** — your own record, and when it expires.
- **Lenders, insurers and auctions** — whether a dealer is licensed and bonded.
- **Buyers** — check a dealer before a purchase.

### What it is not

Not the Department of Licensing, and not the license. The file is a point-in-time list: a license issued after October 1, 2026 is not here. Trucking companies are not in this file.
