DMV’s Winnemucca Field Office Closed December 16-20

Facility Upgrades Underway to Better Serve the Community

WINNEMUCCA – The Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) will temporarily close their Winnemucca office December 16-20 for remodeling purposes.

“Our staff is very happy about this refurbishment,” said DMV services manager, Tami Nielsen. “They needed more room behind the counters to secure license plates and cover personally identifiable information (PII), and mostly everything was old and in need of repair. This cosmetic redesign will greatly enhance the techs’ workstations.”

During this brief closure, customers are encouraged to take advantage of the DMV’s online services for routine transactions. Those who still would like to complete their business in-person can travel to either the Fallon or Elko DMV offices.

“The customers can expect our office to look more up-to-date and professional,” said Melissa Patrick, a Winnemucca drive examiner. “We are getting new cabinetry and countertops since the current ones were getting a little dated. This office is going to have a fresh new look and feel, which is perfect timing for the new year.”

The Winnemucca DMV office will re-open for business on December 23.
