NH Inspections: It's Complicated.
Updated Feb. 6, 2026
NH drivers, if you were planning on celebrating the end of car inspections, keep that sparkling cider on ice. The state and the federal government are currently in a bit of a tug-of-war over this.
Here's What We Know
The Drama: Earlier this week, the State Executive Council voted to stop funding the emissions testing system. However, a federal judge has ordered the state to keep the program running to comply with the Clean Air Act.
The Verdict: While the state is trying to pull the plug, the inspection requirement is still technically law.
Our Recommendations
Good News. You Have a Grace Period: Because of the confusion, the state has suspended enforcement until April 26. If your sticker is expired, you have some breathing room while the lawyers duke it out.
For Now, Don't Risk a Ticket: Just to be safe though, you still might want a current safety and emissions sticker to avoid a conversation with a nice person in a cruiser (especially if you plan on driving across state lines where NH's internal drama doesn't carry much weight).
Let Us Help
Our Hanover Service Center is staying on top of the daily updates. If you want to skip the stress and stay legal, we’re still here to help. We make it easy—you can even book your inspection by email or text.
The official service center of many happy dogs!
Why Being a Co-op Matters
There are nearly 300,000 auto repair shops in the United States, and only a handful are co-ops. (We may be the only one. Still checking!)
Being a community-owned cooperative, our business model is very different from the usual auto service center. Our sole responsibility is to meet the needs of our members and customers, not to make a profit for one owner or a small group of investors. This means we're under absolutely zero pressure to upsell parts or services.
Nice People
Our mechanics are friendly! We love to talk with you about your repairs and make you a part of our team.
Happy Tree-Huggers
We run environmentally responsible operations, offering Freon and automotive waste recycling.
Serving Those Who Serve
We're proud to service the vehicles of our first responders, like the Norwich Police and Dartmouth Security.
