Willow St., now has a self-service kiosk to simplify the processes for customers to conduct some tasks.
The blue and gold “DMV Now” self-service terminals are designed for customers who need their vehicle registration cards and license plate tags immediately, according to the DMV.
To conduct a transaction, individuals will need their vehicle registration-renewal notice that arrived in the mail or their most recent vehicle registration card. The touch-screen machine offers instructions in English and Spanish and accepts cash, credit and debit cards, and checks.
It can also be used by customers who have decided not to drive their vehicle and want to file for planned non-operation status.
The terminals are available during regular business hours and can be found at 60 DMV field offices.
Since the first DMV Now: Self-Service Terminal was installed in October 2010, approximately 5.4 million vehicle registration renewal transactions have been completed using these kiosks, according to DMV officials.
Autos, pickups, motorcycles, coach and park model trailers and commercial vehicles that do not pay Commercial Vehicle Registration Act (CVRA) fees may all be renewed using the kiosks.
However, the terminals cannot renew vessels, as they require issuance of a different sticker not available through DMV Now. Additionally, the machines do not accept proof of insurance and registration reinstatement fees, nor do they process changes of address.
