Buy license plates in bulk — wholesale and custom lots of authentic plates for décor, craft projects, and resale. Our bulk lots range from craft-grade rusty plates, perfect for cutting and weathered projects, to good-condition mixed-state lots that bars, restaurants, and antique shops hang as-is.
We pull from an inventory of tens of thousands of plates, so we can build custom lots by state, color, era, or condition — email tags@rusticplates.com with what you need. Popular uses include license plate maps and stars, commercial wall décor, wholesale resale packs, and classroom 50-state projects. Need precut pieces instead? See our precut letters and numbers. Have pallets or collections to move? We buy license plates too.
Bulk is our specialty for working buyers: bars and restaurants hanging a wall of Americana, antique and tourist shops stocking resale packs, teachers building classroom sets, and artists cutting plates for maps, stars, and signs. Every lot is graded, so you know whether you're getting display-quality plates or weathered craft metal before you order.
Frequently Asked Questions
What condition are bulk license plates in?
Bulk lots are graded, from weathered craft-condition plates that are ideal for cutting and rustic projects up to good-condition plates that display well as-is. Every listing states the grade.
Can you build a custom lot by state, color, or era?
Yes. We pull from tens of thousands of plates, so we can assemble custom lots by state, color, era, or condition. Email tags@rusticplates.com with what you need.
Do you offer wholesale for resale?
Yes. Mixed-state wholesale packs are a staple for antique shops, tourist shops, and other resellers, and repeat orders are easy to arrange.
Are bulk plates real license plates?
Yes. Every plate in every lot is an authentic, expired original. Bulk pricing changes the quantity, never the authenticity.
How are large lots packed and shipped?
Plates are packed securely for weight, using recycled and reused materials wherever possible, and ship from Tacoma, Washington.
