Can't believe how helpful And courteous Eric was. I had a complex question and he found a manager Jessica to assist and she was equally amazing. Made my day, went the extra mile and I'm thankful I came to this office today. They even helped me save expenses.

Don’t bother making an appointment. You are taken in order of arrival. Seriously? So stupid! Also, how about accommodations for the elderly? I sat for over an hour (had a 4:00 appointment) with my 88 year old mother who was there for a simple (or so I thought) address change on her state ID.

I was recently granted with the honor of being helped by Vicky at the Pine Ridge office of the Lee County Tax Collector. Let me explain. THE WORLD HAS GONE CRAZY. Nothing makes sense anymore. People should be friendly. They’re not. They’re rude. Government agencies are supposed to be frustrating. This one’s not. It’s wonderful. I just had a delightfully refreshing experience at the south Ft. Myers Tag Agency and a young lady named Vicky was as efficient, helpful and pleasant as anyone with whom I have had the pleasure of dealing. That’s not supposed to happen. This is a story that must be told. My mother recently passed after 82 years and a blessedly short bout of lung cancer. She was one of the great mothers. And I will tell her story elsewhere. But, this is a story of our confused tag agency/office whose crazy goal seems intent on delivering a pleasant experience and the insanely efficient Vicky. Briefly, my mother left a car with a loan and the bank had never claimed a title. I am not fluent with all of the lingo and intricacies, but basically this meant the car did not exist in any database, the bank did not have a title and, even though I paid them for the loan, they would not issue a title for a car they claimed did not exist. This is how they explained it to me, anyway, and I was downright fearful of having to convey this confusion to the tag agency. I mean, I had paid for the car, I should be able to sell it, right? And, for that I needed a title. So, after putting it off as long as I could, I made my appointment. I made two appointments, knowing that it would be so screwed up that I would surely have to return, and their calendar was pretty full. I don’t want to waste time with extra details, I want this to be about how ridiculously efficient, knowledgeable and pleasant my encounter with Vicky was. I am cautious with my words and I meant “ridiculous”. I caught myself laughing at how easily she understood the situation. How relaxed she made me feel. She calmed my fears with her instant grasp of the situation. I could just get out my thesaurus and string together synonyms for great, intelligent, effective and efficient. But, my point is that anyone who gets called to Vicky’s window at the Lee County Tag Agency on Pine Ridge should count themselves among the winners of life’s lottery. It was that good. With best regards and gratitude, Thank you, Harry B.

Lee County Tax Collector | May 8, 2022

Hi Steve. You will need your original title and all owners must be present at the appointment with proof of identification. You will need proof of insurance from a licensed Florida insurance agent/company. A physical VIN inspection is also required. This may be completed by driving the vehicle to the office at the time of titling, or in advance using HSMV 82042 completed by a Florida Notary or law enforcement officer from any state. (Here is a link you can copy and paste for the document: https://www.flhsmv.gov/pdf/forms/82042.pdf) If the vehicle was purchased/titled within the past six (6) months, proof of any sales tax paid must be provided as well.
