Who do you call? How long does it take?

Just saw a sign says they are By Appointment Only as of Monday. So... Who do you call? How do you do that?

Or... Do I just pick from.. South Brunswick, East Orange, Runnemeade (my buddies came from there,) Newton, or Washington and just wait in line??

Why do you want to call? I thought appointments were only made online.

Actually, I thought ALL of them were appointment-only now, but apparently some are still doing the thing where you go and get a ticket in the morning and are given a time to return later.

Check on the site to which MVC vehicle centers are full each day and which do not require appointments. The ones that don't require appointments still likely are requiring you to show up early and get a ticket with a time.

go to their website, click make appointment. So much easier now! Husband did it the other day in Trenton and couldn't believe how simple. He was in and out in 20 minutes (for a title).

Actually, when my husband went to Trenton (he did appointment) , they also still do a line, and many of the people in line were unaware of the appointment thing and were pretty pissed he showed up, got brought in and left while they were still standing outside.



We learned about it on twitter, but i'm not sure how else people are finding out. But it's a good thing, wish it was always like this.

Wouldn't the first thing most people would do be to go on the MVC page and see what it says? That's how I found out they had divided it into Licensing and Vehicle centers. If I had just gone randomly, I would have driven to Eatontown only to find out they didn't do titles there. (Of course, it is only ten minutes away, lol, so it wouldn't have been too terrible.)

Go to On Call LLC, in Roselle NJ. For a fee they will take care of the stuff for you. I got my title and plates done through them for $100 fee.

$100???


Why, when you can schedule an appointment that takes 20 minutes out of your day?

Yes, me too. It has gone through a lot of changing since March, so i wouldn't assume anything is the same at this point.



Honestly, the online stuff and the appointment stuff should have been done years ago, but glad it's done ...

+1
Because online search engines have existed for over two decades, I am always fascinated by people who ask anonymous sources for unofficial--possibly incorrect--information, despite the reality that factual information could have been found on an agency's website in less than 30 seconds.

'tis a mystery...

COVID has definitely brought about some positive changes that will likely survive the virus.
