DMV Milwaukee: Closing the Door on Your Procrastination (But Hopefully Not Literally)
Ah, the DMV. A place that strikes fear (and boredom) into the hearts of even the bravest souls. But fear not, weary traveler! This guide will illuminate the crucial question: what time does the DMV close in Milwaukee? Because let's face it, nobody wants to show up with a stack of paperwork only to be met with a locked door and a tumbleweed rolling by.
Buckle Up, Buttercup: Here's the Deal
The good news: All Milwaukee DMVs (except the Downtown location which is permanently closed) have the same operating hours: 8:30 am to 4:45 pm, Monday through Friday.
The not-so-bad news: Some Milwaukee DMVs are open Saturdays from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm. This includes the Milwaukee Northwest (7301 W Mill Rd.) location.
But wait, there's more! Before you hightail it to the DMV, here's a super important tip: Many DMV services can be done online! Renew your license, register your car, avoid the awkward small talk with DMV Larry - all from the comfort of your couch (in your pajamas, if that's your thing).
