The Utah Division of Motor Vehicle (DMV) has announced its office located at 2880 S. 380 W. in South Salt Lake will be closed until further notice. This closure is to reduce the possible spread of COVID-19. An employee that tested positive recently did not have contact with the public but did have contact with other office employees. The office will be cleaned and sterilized and employees must be cleared prior to opening the office to the public.
“This is frustrating for customers and employees but unavoidable given the situation,” said Monte Roberts, the DMV director. “All customer appointments scheduled at this office will be cancelled. Those customers that have scheduled appointments are encouraged to schedule an appointment at other offices until the office is reopened.”
To avoid local traffic, business and wait time issues experienced with prior office closures, DMV will not process new title and registration transactions in any office drive-through.
“We are also returning to the original intent for the drive-through service,” Roberts said. “New title and registration transactions require a longer time to process and create long wait times in the drive-through. These transactions will be serviced by appointment only at an office and will not be processed at a drive-through.”
Customers that are not able to process their motor vehicle transactions online and need to visit an office in-person will be required to schedule an appointment. Customers are asked to visit the division’s website to schedule appointments at dmv.utah.gov.
