I can't say I've ever thought of posting a review for a dmv. Usually you think of the dmv and feel dread come over you. But this location made everything so easy and smooth! Everyone was super friendly and helpful. Wait time wasn't bad at all, I went around 10am which seemed to be a less hectic time. Really thankful for their kindness and efficiency

This is easily the most efficient DMV ive ever been to. 2 oclock was very smooth. You could do downtown and sacrifice half your day. Or you could come here and wait between 30 and 75 minutes. Up to you.

This is not an exaggeration: I LOVE this dmv. I have been several times over the past year, and I’m always in and out within 45 minutes. The employees are knowledgeable, helpful and kind. I drive out of my way to come to this one. Thank you Orleans Road DMV!!

Overall I had a pretty good experience at this DMV. I relocated to Charleston so I had to register my vehicle and get new license plates / driver's license. The lady who works at the main desk when you walk is very helpful and they even printed my ID right then and there. Very different than where I am from in the Midwest. They also have a lot of workers in there, so I would say the wait time moves as quickly as it can. I was surprised how fast I was in and out of there the first time, but then I had to go back and I waited a little longer that day.

No. You must have your own. You could borrow one from someone, but makes sure you have the registration paperwork
They are closed Saturdays
When you apply for a license tag here in S.C. you will be asked to provide two forms for the address. Either can be a bill like an electric bill, phone bill, or water bill and/or a letter someone sent to you. Your N.Y. license will show that you just recently moved from there. Oh by the way, welcome to South Carolina, hope you enjoy your stay. I have been to Saratoga Springs, N.Y. and loved it there in the winter. We did our Santa season there before covid restricted us going.
birth Certificate or anything that shows all her info as in school records or medical records.

Not anymore, you can go to any license office and they will issue you a replacement for $10.00.
I needed to register new vehicle. Could not make an appointment.
Yes if you're a new driver. I saw them calling people to go on the driving test.
Yes
I would hate to give you the wrong information. But if it was me I would go by there or even try calling them.
No, you just walk in, get a number, and wait with all the other people.
That is a question you would have to contact the DMV for
They are good for one year. If you need longer time, if you are military, I believe you can get an extension on your vehicle. Different circumstances requires different answers only the DMV can answer.
Not anymore. Unless your trying to get a new license, motorcycle license or coming from international to get a license.

I'm sure they do. Speaking English would be a different story?
There is no need 4 appointments, their effectiveness is remarkable! To include complex tax, etc on two occasions. AND the staff is friendly, too. MAJOR IMPROVEMENT...try it you'll see.
Even the last day before the Thanksgiving holiday was a total time from and to my car of less than 1.5 hours. So many people were in line, but this DMV is on point!
It's $15 if you get it by mail if you want it today it is $40
I would call the dmv, sorry I cannot answer your question.
I would a appointment, then you will not have to wait so long.
You should call or physically go there to find out.
You have to call to get an appointment
You will need a birth certificate and SS card too. The list of needed docs are on their web site.
For a new REAL ID a first time South Carolina drivers license for me was 25$
Yes. If there are a lot of walkups, they'll take your first name and cell # and ask you to wait in your car. They'll text you to let you know you're on the waiting list. They'll text you a second time when they're ready for you.
You will need the probate paper work showing the name of the family member who had the right to sign on behalf of the deceased to be able to reassign the title. If they don't have probate documents then ask if they have power of attorney documents. Either way either the probate paper or power of attorney document will have to be shown with the title to the vehicle in order to reassign it.
Sometimes they allow walk-ins (usually when it's slow). I'd recommend making an appointment.
They have a "walk ins" line but I suggest getting the apt. Or else you'll be standing in line outside.
No. Feel free to frame it up or contact your previous state for a possible refund.
Yes
