Saturday Service Hours Temporarily Suspended at 16 Driver License Offices Due To The Spread Of The COVID-19 Delta Variant
ROCKY MOUNT, NC (September 1, 2021) — Starting Saturday, September 4, 2021, the N.C. Division of Motor Vehicles will temporarily suspend its Saturday services at the 16 driver license offices where services were available, to better protect customers and staff from the spread of the COVID-19 Delta variant.
Temporarily suspending Saturday hours will reduce potential COVID exposures, as examiners who work on Saturdays typically travel from several offices to work together in one office.
Saturday service hours from 8 a.m.-noon will be suspended at the following driver license offices:
• Asheville, 1624 Patton Ave.
• Charlotte, 9711 David Taylor Dr.
• Charlotte, 201-H W. Arrowood Rd.

• Greenville, 4651 North Creek Dr.
• Hendersonville, 125 Baystone Dr.
• Hudson, 309 Pine Mountain Rd.
• Huntersville, 12101 Mount Holly-Huntersville Rd.

• Raleigh, 2431 Spring Forest Rd., Suite 101
• Wilmington, 2390 Carolina Beach Rd., Suite 104
• Winston-Salem, 2001 Silas Creek Pkwy.
Saturday extended hours will be suspended until NCDMV determines it is safer to resume Saturday service. Saturday hours are for walk-in customers only.
