Delaware DMV Services
The Division of Motor Vehicles is in charge of motor vehicle and licensing needs in the state of Delaware. The state has branches in Wilmington, Delaware City, Dover, and Georgetown. You can avoid long waits by checking the wait time online. The online system provides wait times for driver, driver improvement, vehicle, and insurance services. You can also watch a live video feed to get a better idea of how crowded the DMV is at any given time.
If you don’t have to wait long, you might want to go to the DMV and take care of your needs. However, if the wait times are long, you can use the online services. Then, you won’t have to worry about standing in line at the DMV.
Available Online Services
The Delaware DMV offers over 20 online services. You can renew your registration and change your address online. You can also get a federally compliant ID or license or change your organ donor request. In addition, you can register for motorcycle training courses, purchase a driving record, or pay your tickets.
This is just a small sample of what you can do online. Check out the online services to see if you can skip the trip to the DMV.
