How it works
Send us your papers
WhatsApp photos of your documents. We check everything before anyone goes to the DMV, so nothing gets rejected for a missing paper.
We pick up, or you drop off
Drop your signed forms at our Richmond Hill office, or we pick them up from your door anywhere in New York City.
We bring back your plates
We take your paperwork to the DMV and bring back your plates, sticker and registration, usually by the next business day.
Skip the trip. We come to you.
DMV pick-up & drop-off across New York City. We collect your signed paperwork (and old plates, if you’re surrendering) from your home or business in Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan or Staten Island, and deliver your new plates and registration back to your door. Nassau and Suffolk on request.
There’s an extra charge for pick-up and drop-off, quoted for your address when you book. How pick-up works →
Frequently asked questions
Can I renew my for-hire registration online?
No. The DMV doesn’t allow online renewal for for-hire vehicles. That’s exactly what we do for you.
Can you move my plates to a new car?
Yes. We transfer your registration to your new vehicle as long as it hasn’t expired. Get your new car insured first; we can do that too.
Do you renew my TLC license or diamond sticker?
No. Those are TLC (not DMV) services. We handle the DMV registration and your TLC insurance.
Is my renewal due soon?
Send us a photo of your registration on WhatsApp and we’ll check your dates.
We specialize in TLC insurance for Black Car, Livery, Uber, Lyft, Green and Yellow Cab drivers. Get your FH-1 and your DMV paperwork from one office.
