there really isn't a whole lot good to say about this place. Everybody expects to have minor…read moreheadaches and everything when they go into this office or any kind of department of licensing or motor vehicles office anywhere but in some ways, this one I felt was pretty bad. firstly location. Well, the location itself isn't bad. It's also not great. The entrance is tucked away in an area where if you don't really know where you're going you're probably not going to be able to find it. There's also the fact that the location doesn't have anything like a spot where if you have a bicycle, you can tie up to or something. Another thing is the management of this office seems to be an extremely rude individual. Constantly belittling their staff and regularly being an absolute nuisance, right in front of the individuals who have come in and are waiting. some of the staff aren't much better. The individual that I got was an older woman who barely even looked at me. Let alone spoke directly to me. She kept speaking towards her computer screen, and I could barely hear her. small part to the little safety window thing in front of her. now, maybe I just caught her on an off day but still there was no personality in it and her interactions were very cold and almost indifferent. I mean, I'm not saying need to smile or all that very least they need to be polite and honestly she wasn't. honestly, if there was a better location, I would probably find another place but unfortunately for me this is the closest location that I can find. Also, if you utilize a service like Uber or Lyft, you're probably going to have a little bit of difficulty because there are no pickup spots anywhere near the location. I literally had to cross over towards a bar or something to actually wait for my ride to pick me up.

It's been about the 5th time I've gone back and today they told me I need another two documents signed and notarized by my parents that live in Florida. To be fair the people working are not bad people, but I really wish they could've just told/given me all the documents I need in order to change my plates and tabs. It takes about two hours for my parents to drive to the place in order to get something notarized and now they have to do it again. Also my insurance runs out in about a week, which is ridiculous because if they just gave me everything at once then I could've probably gotten everything at least a month before. This is also not completely their fault tho, hence why it is a 2 star. Since USPS gave me an incorrect change of address the first time around, and the second one came late as well. I'm sorry to the staff there but this whole mess has made me more stressed than I have ever been during University. Why isn't there like a full list that you can give us to complete? I saw that another review had a similar problem as well, like why? Why would you want us to come back a handful of times? Sorry for the rant but this is my honest review.
