BOSTON, Mass. — The Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) will extendi designated Wednesday appointment hours for customers 75 years of age or older into October and to additional Service Center locations. 

 

This new customer service option began in early September at the RMV Service Centers in Danvers, Leominster, New Bedford, South Yarmouth, Springfield and Watertown, and will continue to be offered on Wednesdays at these locations through October.

 

In October, eleven additional Service Centers will begin to dedicate Wednesdays (hours vary by location) to customers 75 years of age or older whose driver's license or ID card expire in September and October, including customers whose licenses/IDs were extended from March, April, May and June and are due to expire soon. This new service option is being offered to provide customers with some flexibility while conducting transactions and to facilitate proper “social-distancing” protocols and procedures to keep customers and staff safe and healthy.  

 

Information regarding the new service hours and additional resources for seniors can be found here.
