Can this trailer be registered under my name with just a bill of sale? I haven't had a chance but plan on calling the DMV when I get time.

If the trailer has NEVER been registered then you can pay taxes and register the trailer in your name. If the trailer has been registered before, you will need to track down the original owner and get a title transferred to you. Usually, this means a lost title form needs to be filed so he has a title to sign over.
I have found that people who sell trailers w/o titles have bought/acquired trailers without the proper paperwork, then sell them without titles. Hope this helps, if you have problems, get the VIN and call me.
