So considering the dreary days these folks have to endure I'm inclined to give a high rating just for showing up to work every day. I was stunned at how many people they process every hour. There is a smaller, "express" DMV just a mile or so away. Almost every client I saw was very young so don't know what's going on in Boise. Their processes are highly automated and reasonably efficient. They get you in and out fairly quickly and with a minimum of fuss. The staff are clearly not happy people but I'd chalk that up more to their environment than anything else. Once they punch out and hit the bar with friends they could well be the life of the party. The Ada County Sheriff has done a very good job building an efficient operation so kudos and five starts for that.

I can't express enough how he helped my time at the DMV to go smoothly and quickly. Thanks Josh for a good experience at the DMV

The staff was extremely friendly, respectful, and helpful throughout the entire process. Everything was well-organized and moved faster than we expected. Important note for those moving from out of state (especially California): This office only helps with driver licenses and ID cards. They do not process vehicle registrations. For that, you'll need to go to: Ada County DMV Meridian Branch, 1769 N Lakes Pl #100, Meridian, ID 83646 Also, if you're moving from California (and possibly other states), be aware that you must take a written knowledge test on the computer, even if you've been driving for decades with a clean record. No behind-the-wheel test is required, but the written test is mandatory. So be prepared and study beforehand! Overall, this office made what could have been a stressful task feel simple and welcoming. A big thanks to the team for making our transition to Idaho so smooth.

We were at the DMV for title updates three times this past week, and while the popular perception is that Flash from Zootopia is running the place, that's not right. Every staff member was polite, fast, and courteous. Darryl attended to us on the last visit and was very patient with us as we missed a signature on the title document. I also liked how some of the booths were personalized. One booth had multiple sloths. Here are some tips. Book online and save time Show up about 10 mins early Enter your booking ID from your email and get your ticket. You may be called immediately Have the right people attending. If your name is not on the title, whether it's the updated one or the new one, nothing can be done. There is a credit/debit card fee of 2% or something, but there is an ATM in the lobby. Either pay the 2% fee or bring cash or a check. Considering my own experiences with the DMVs in other states, we're very fortunate to have convenient DMV locations with personable folks working there.
