Alicia was professional and no nonsense. It took her less than three minutes to process my tags and I left with them in hand out the door in five minutes. Incredible. At the rate they processed customers even if there were a line it wouldn't have taken very long. Just saying this is the kind of experience you want to have all day every day. Thank you for having such a competent staff. PS this is a family owned business. For 57 years. Amazing value for the time.

They said they would have replaced it for free if I had come in the same day but my husband and I both work full time so getting the time to get into their office and wait in line for who knows how long is extremely difficult. It didn't change the date of my registration or cost any more than if I had been able to come in the same day to replace but they still had to find some way to rip me off just because they can. Absolutely disgusting and goes to exactly why so many people despise certain government agencies.

OVERALL: 9.67/10 (Yelp converted score: 5/5). This place is a shining example of great, courteous,…read moreand efficient customer service. I'll definitely be back in the future for my licensing needs. After getting turned away at another location (shall be left unnamed), we were trying to get plates for a car transferred to WA from California (2010 Lexus IS250). 1) VALUE FOR MONEY: 9/10. The unfortunate part is that the payment terminal charges $2.25 per transaction (3% of the tx for $75.01+ on credit cards), so I'd recommend using a debit card (flat $2.25). In total, the title registration and plates cost $198 (before the debit tx processing fee). Not bad! 2) QUALITY: 10/10. The staff promptly acknowledged us, and worked efficiently on our case with no hassles or interruptions. The clerk made sure the phone number on record was correct (repeating it back to us) and ensured we understood the expectations (signing, dating the right locations, verifying info, etc) as outlined by the documents. We received our plates immediately after paying the title registration fees! 3) SERVICE: 10/10. We were in and out within 15 minutes - even with waiting for less than 5 minutes outside (there's a max of 6 people in the lobby). We came in to get plates for my partner's car, after she moved it up from her home city of LA, California.

There's a lady that goes by Vivi working there who has zero customer service skills and is incredibly rude. She completely butchered the sellers name and when corrected politely, she goes "well I don't know how to pronounce it" while waving her arms around like a crazy lady instead of apologizing and using the correct pronunciation. Not only that, she was very rude and dismissing when I was asking questions. Clearly she has a miserable life, but keep it at home and be professional. Aside from that, I went in there 3 times and each time I've got somebody different who's told me different requirements and that I'm missing something resulting in having to go multiple times. Shouldn't the requirements be standard? Maybe a training opportunity? Anyways, I would recommend taking your business elsewhere that will be kind and efficient.

I'm in the military and keep Washington as my residence, I recently bought a car in Virginia and she helped me register it in Washington through the mail. We went through the steps on the phone, mailed the forms, and had my plates and new registration a week later. Her licensing process is easy, fast, and thorough.

I stood in line during my lunch break for 30 minutes just to find out I was in the wrong line and she has the audacity to say "Well I need a break just like everyone else" when I expressed my frustration. I very quickly explained that a sign would literally solve the problem and even pointed at a sign that incorrectly noted one of the windows I had been waiting for as the online pickup window. She didn't apologize. She just said "I see what you mean." I would sure hope so. So let me get this straight: 1) You went on your break without any coverage or anything out to indicate to people that you would return and they should wait for you there. 2) You wasted 30 minutes of MY break by doing so 3) You then got sassy with me about YOUR break that clearly did not get wasted It is one thing to be lazy but to be lazy and rude when I did all the work to renew the tabs myself at home is horrible. All she had to do was hand me the paperwork which would have resulted in 5 minutes instead of 30. But thank god HER break wasn't wasted....

EASTSIDE AUTO LICENSING @ KIRKLAND…read more Parking is available right out front, and it doesn't get too packed, so you'll be able to find a spot pretty easily. My dad and I came around 10:30 AM, and since the line didn't look too long, we assumed we'd be helped pretty quickly. To check in, there's only one entrance and two screens where you put your name and phone number, then sit and wait. They also have a TV that shows your estimated wait time. My dad's estimate was about nine minutes, but 15 minutes went by and we noticed some of the staff just standing around or going into the break room without returning for a while. The place suddenly got very busy, and there were only two workers handling everyone. Once it was finally our turn, the guy who helped us was nice, but he took a long time assisting other people, which slowed everything down even more. Overall, I'd recommend coming really early in the morning or going to a different location if you have the option. My dad didn't enjoy his experience, the workers weren't very kind, and the service was extremely slow. The ticket for renewing your car license was about $238!
