Niagara County Clerk Joseph A. Jastrzemski today encouraged Niagara County residents to schedule their appointments with the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) soon for those who need to get their boats, motorcycles and other recreational vehicles registered for summer.   

“Each of our three DMV locations has dozens of appointments open as soon as tomorrow for residents to get their registrations taken care of and be ready for the summer,” said Jastrzemski.  “Schedule now and avoid the inevitable rush that will begin in a few more weeks.” 

Appointments can be made online at niagaracounty.com by clicking on “Motor Vehicles” under the department tab.  For those without internet access, please call 716-743-4599.  The Niagara County DMV offices do not accept walk-in customers. 

“The overwhelmingly majority of the public has urged us to maintain the appointment system to eliminate the old days of having to wait in long lines,” said Jastrzemski.  “But it does take a little bit of planning ahead, so please be sure to make your appointment.”
