Best Times to Visit the Oregon DMV

If you can’t complete your DMV business online, you can still save time by picking the right time for your visit. Consider avoiding:

The first and last days of the month.
Days immediately before or after holidays.
Mondays and Fridays (the middle of the week is usually less crowded).
Lunch time and evenings. It’s especially important to give yourself enough time to complete lengthy transactions before the DMV closes (like taking a license exam).
