Department of Motor Vehicles

I just went in (11am on Wed morning) to transfer my license from HI to CO. I’d been putting it off because I know how long you can get stuck waiting at a DMV, but I was really impressed by their efficiency!
When I walked in there was an employee helping people by asking what they needed and directing them. She pulled a ticket for me and said it shouldn’t be long, as there were just a couple people ahead of me. They call your number and tell you which window to go to (and display it on a monitor in case you miss the announcement). I only waited about 5 minutes to be called.
The employee who took in my info was friendly and professional. When she was done, she directed me to have a seat and wait to be called for the photograph. Waited about 5 more minutes to be called, then another 5 in line at the photo area.
All in all I was in and out in under 30 minutes (my kids didn’t even whine about the wait!).
My only complaint was that they said not to smile for the picture, and it came out totally looking like a mug shot! Oh well, that’s not their fault.
I haven’t been to any other DMVs in Colorado, but I would highly recommend this one.

I’ve never ever had any problem at this DMV, meaning, I walk in and walk out within 30 minutes or less! I love it. Or, I just know the right time on when to come.
The service is great, they are fast and this DMV is super clean. It’s on a smaller side, but plenty of staff!

Solid 4 star DMV experience … If you only need a drivers license, this is not a bad place to go get that taken care of BUT… DO make an appointment! This can be done online. When you arrive you will check in at the kiosk and still get a number. I did this and was called up right away. The worker taking my info was a strange, humorless man. I think he might have been in training. He was very awkward and mumbly. After dealing with him I was told to sit back down and wait for my name to be called for the picture (I think… He was mumbling but I figured it out) and then to my annoyance I saw people who had finished at other stations after me being called before me and getting pictures and leaving, and I began to wonder if this guy messed something up and I’d never get called. But then my name came up, I got the picture done and I left. ID came in the mail within 2 weeks like they said and it wasn’t even that ugly.

Okay, okay, okay.
It is the DMV, but…
This one is not that bad.
Not that great because it is the DMV, but…
Not too bad when looking at all the other offices I have been to throughout the metro area.
It’s in Parker… so stay away all you outsiders… just kidding.
The staff here is actually nice. I think some of them actually like their jobs. Rare as that seems, I like that quality.
I have 2 teenage drivers now so I have spent some time here getting their licenses and the staff was very nice and explained every little detail to both of my nervous boys.
It’s not though, 4 star, because it is the DMV.

TIP: These places are still cash and check only so come prepared. No debit or credit cards!
If you have the time to go a few miles out of your way and avoid the Aurora or Centennial DMVs, come to this one is Parker. It’s clean, quiet, plenty of seating, and I waited less than 15 minutes just after the lunch hour.
I was renewing an expired out of state license and I expected to get a whole big run around but they guy helping me made it quick and easy. It helped that I had everything under the sun I thought I would need as far as paperwork though.

When I have to make the dreaded trip to the DMV, I go out of my way to hit up this one in Parker. The lines move quickly, and there never is a huge crowd when compared to other DMV“s in Denver. You can be in and out in less than 2 hours versus 4 or more. Everyone is pleasant here and they treat you well. They do not have an attitude or act as if you are bothering them. It’s crazy, but they actually seem like they enjoy their jobs! And yes, there are a lot of teenagers there, but I enjoy watching them while I wait. Come on, don’t you remember passing your drivers test and getting your license, it’s a very exciting day!

I’ve been to this location several times, and though it’s never a treat I’ve also been to much worse DMVs in my life. It seems like anytime you are there, there are tons and tons of teenagers. I was almost hit in this parking lot by another driver once… no joke. Despite the improvements that could be made at least things seem to move along here at a steady pace, even when they are busy. I won’t say I’ll be back because I enjoyed my experience, but I will be back because like taxes, trips to the DMV are unavoidable. It should be noted that this is a Driver’s License location, you would need to do your vehicle registration elsewhere.

After what was possibly the worst experience of my life at the Aurora location, I came here to Parker to get my CO drivers license.
What a change from Aurora.
I came here on a Thursday afternoon.
I was greeted by someone working the little desk when you walk in and given my number. I waited maybe 15 – 20 minutes and was called up. The staff was friendly, there were plenty of chairs for everyone, and things ran smoothly.
Very much worth the extra drive.

«All my friends that are 16 have all been in accidents. Even if it’s just a fender bender…». Immediate reaction to a teenage girls phone conversation that I was so badly trying not to listen to but because she was sitting RIGHT behind me I couldn’t help it? AAAHHHH!!!
The DMV is the last place I want to spend my time. If it wasn’t for my NY license reaching it’s expiration date, I would not be Unilocaling. Is it just me or does the state try to hire the most miserable people in the world?
Upon entering the building I realized that I was definitely not the early bird like I imagined. And, I also came to the assumption that the DMV didn’t pay their heating bill, why was it SO FRIGID?! At one point I thought I was going to see snowflakes falling.
During my hour and a half wait, I had frequent flashbacks of taking my driving test 9 YEARS AGO! My have driving tests changed. If you fail the written test the first time, you can automatically take it over and hopefully pass with flying colors. That never happened. Thankfully, no tests for me.
Flashback after flashback, I was almost at the point of no…“B420!”. I never jumped out of a seat so fast while shouting «HERE!!!». Getting called by a letter and numbers never felt so good.
