Millwoods Registry

AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE!
But if you do decide to go here, be prepared to wait… and wait for a LONG time! At least an hour minimum! UGH!
Everyone who works here seems to move as slow as molasses, and its absolutely infuriating (especially if you’re in a hurry)
I’ve sadly had to make quite a few trips here lately (buying a new car, getting a new license plate, getting forms sent out, etc.) and I find that each time I visit, my experience here gets worse and worse.
I know DMV’s aren’t supposed to be like fast food restaurants, but everyone here seems to just loathe their job. No one smiles, and it just gives the place a absurdly horrible vibe.
One Friday while I was waiting, I got to hear all about how these 2 women workers couldn’t wait till closing time so they could go out clubbing and get drunk!
I was shocked they had the nerve to talk like this with a building full of people, but they did. Sharing tips of what to wear to get mens attention, who they’ve slept with, just mind blowing things! One older gentleman after listening to them gaggle on for over 30 minutes got up and told them that they should focus on their work, instead of their plans to «get laid». The whole group of us waiting started to laugh and then broke out in a around of applause. So needless to say they «shut their traps» pretty quickly.
Anyways after that little incident, I definitely planned to take the rest of my business elsewhere.
I recommend anyone who’s thinking of going here, to go to the location near the Southside Costco instead. That location (I won’t say the name for fear my review will be deleted) is fast and all the workers are SOOO nice! If you google places near the Costco you’ll find the place I’m talking about. I told the workers at this new location that if I knew this place existed before, I would have gladly done all my business there. Oddly enough they said they’ve heard exactly what I told them before about the other location.
Now if that doesn’t change your mind about this place, I don’t know what will!

Avoid if you can. Went their for my road test and the lady lashed out at me for asking g her to repeat the directions. As a nervous 18 year old she made me feel so crappy that I ended up making more mistakes.

I had went in to renew my vehicle registration early as I knew that I’d be busy in September handling a new baby so I wanted to ensure that I wouldn’t forget.
This registry is located near Millwoods Town Centre, has a fairly small parking lot in the front (although there is plenty of parking in the actual lot, as there are other businesses as well) and the inside of the location is fairly small. One thing I really like is the take a number system because it feels more organized rather than having to literally stand in line in such a small space.
The wait time wasn’t that long and I was in and out fairly quickly; my only big dislike about this location is the customer service or lack thereof. Anytime I’ve gone, the registry agents are never smiling and don’t acknowledge the person with any greeting other than «What do you need?» or staring at you waiting for you to tell them what you need done. It’d be nice for a «Hello, how are you?» or «What can I do for you today?» or maybe that’s just me…
If I’m in the area and need registry services, I’d probably drop by just for the convenience.

Why was it OK to complain about the service wait times service charges like no business when the government ran this. Well the it’s has gotten worse. And the part that sucks now when you complain to the privet sector for long wait time and service charges they smile and say it’s the governments job. You just can’t win

As can be expected, the wait is long… I went early in the morning and still had to wait for several hours. Not much to do for entertainment, either … even with a book I found it difficult not to fall asleep.
The staff here are not unpleasant, but I found them on the apathetic side. I didn’t mind. After all, the atmosphere to begin with wasn’t terribly energetic.
All in all I had no problems and things went smoothly.

This registry is always busy and it’s very annoying. I guess I can’t really complain since most registries are usually busy but this place is pretty tiny as it is and it gets pretty cramped.
The staff is friendly but it seems like they move so slowly. If they moved a long just a bit faster maybe the lines would build up so quickly. I have started to avoid going here.

As far as registries go, this one is pretty good.
It is never fun waiting in line at the registries office and this place is no exception — there is usually a long line here, even during the week during the day.
The staff here are very friendly though. Every time I have gone here, the staff are smiling and are very accommodating.
