Well, be prepared to be treated like dirt. You will stand on line, then either get a number or directed to stand on line at window six. If you want same day service, arrive at 7:30am, and stand on line outside of the building. The office opens at 8 or 8:30am. The security guards are respectful, and pleasant. After that, get ready to be spoken to harshly, possibly misinformed, not the slightest bit of of respect or a smile, regardless of your pleasantries and respect toward the folks behind the safety glass. It is the 2nd most demoralizing experience ever. 1st place goes to Rector Street. The East Orange office close whenever they want. One day they might shut down at 2:30. The next day, it could be 3:30. If you get upset, or angry, you can kiss your application approval good-bye. Remain calm, if you want help. Even when employees chit chat about personal business, or share recipes, as the lines get longer, and every seat is filled, avoid the temptation to join the chorus of frustrated people who start spewing insults, threats and dreadful profanity. Just make sure your cell phone is fully charged, and find something to occupy you for at least four hours. Pray. They can rename the Division as often as the County Executive wants to. But until they fire the beneficiaries of patronage and nepotism and hire qualified people who really want to assist people in need, the quality of customer service will remain at the bottom of the barrel.

    I want to commend the NJMVC based out of East Orange, N.J. and specifically Lucille and Michael. On…read moreApril 7, 2026 they helped me get replacement plates just before closing time. The police had stopped me that day and informed me that my rear license plate was from a reported stolen car. Apparently, the day before, someone had unscrewed my rear license plate and replaced it with a plate from a stolen vehicle. Long story short, I rushed to the DMV in Newark as I needed new plates. They could not help me there and said I needed to go the East Orange office. When I arrived at the East Orange DMV it was approaching closing time. I went to the info desk where Lucille gave me the necessary paper work to fill out and clear instructions on what I needed to complete. As I was filling out the paper work, she kindly came over to me to remind me know they were closing soon and that Michael would assist me once I completed the paper work. Once done, Michael was ready and processed the paper work and within minutes I had my new plates. I so appreciate their help and professionalism. I know the DMV often gets a bad rap, but I have nothing but praise for Lucille's and Michael's help that day. Also, the DMV folks in Newark were kind enough to find the East Orange location for me so I could get going. Thank you!

    If I could do zero stars I would happily do, this place is amongst the worst DMV takes forever to…read moremove an inch off the line and the workers seem like they just want to chill and chat unbothered, oh I forgot whatever you come for here to get done, forget about it because they will tell you to come the next day and the next day until they actually want to work......
