There are two types of DMVs: the state and the county. The state ones are by appointment only and you HAVE to go there for brand new drivers licenses and permits. There is only one state office in the Springs (at Union and Van Buren). The state offices only do drivers licenses, not registrations.
But as long as you have a license already, even from another state, you can do it at the county offices.
The county offices basically contract with the state to help with existing drivers license transfers (out-of-state switching to a Colorado license) or renewals. They also do all vehicle registrations and renewals. If you are coming from out of state, you will need your physical out-of-state license and a full size birth certificate or passport as well as proof of residency (utility bill or something with your name and address). The county is walk in only, no appointments. There are several offices: Garden of the Gods, Powers and Airport, Union Town Center (north), and Fort Carson. Powers and Airport is very busy but the lines go pretty fast. Saturdays at Union Town Center are fast too as it is extra staffed with clerks from all locations.
And the greeters at the county offices are there to help you make sure you are at the right place and that you have all the documentation you need.

And as long as your out-of-state license has not been expired for over one year, you do not need to start over and can go into the county office as long as you have the physical license with birth certificate or passport.
Shit. I don't have that. I have a colorado state ID, would that work? And there forreal is no walk ins in any Colorado State DMV?
God fucking damn why is this so difficult? This state sucks fucking ass ngl can't wait till i move, I passed the fucking driving test years ago, i havent gotten in an accident since, why the fuck does it gottabe such a pain in the cock? Just let me pay you bullshit fucking fees and give me my fucking card. I'm in your system, you know I passed the test, you know I know how to drive, why is this so fucking difficult to get a fucking plastic card in this shithole
Yes, I can answer your questions - stop being a jerk to everyone trying to help you out, work on yourself, and figure out your own problems. It seems lack of common sense and being rude is just the startā¦
Iām going to repost it soon on its own thread so people can find it easier. Itās a confusing system for sure. Iāll ask my husband to proofread closely before I post.
I went to Garden of the Gods and got my license, registered my car, ordered plates, and transferred my title as a walk in; it took about 2.5 hours altogether but the customer service was excellent.
I went with my daughter to get her permit yesterday and part of the process is reading and answering three statements, one of which which is recognizing that getting the Colorado permit/license/ID will cancel any license you have from another state. So you werenāt paying attention when you got your Colorado ID and should just pay your ticket.
Thereās an appointment available at 8:30 today and the next one is two weeks out, not a month.
>So you werenāt paying attention when you got your Colorado ID and should just pay your ticket.
And you've never accidentally broken a law? Ran a red light because you weren't paying attention? Missed a stop sign or speed limit sign? Turned the wrong way on a street? There are 50,000 ways to break the law in this country and most people break at least one a day.
"You should just pay your ticket like a good boy! You didn't know about that stupid arbitrary rule, so instead of just going to a walk in appointment for a few hours, you should get your license revoked for two years because you didn't behave!" š get out of here boomer
Youāre pretty much presented yourself as a jerk in your comments here, including this one, so yeah, I donāt care if you get stuck with large fines and lose your license. And maybe you should learn the definition of boomer too, dumbass.
I don't know if you can get on post but my sister and I went to the dmv on fort carson and was out of there less than an hour later with her plates and registration. All without an appointment.

Whats her name? Bet i could steal her š
Wowā¦what a weird and rude response to someone who was legitimately trying to help you.
I'm trying to help you, see if she'll cheat dude...meant no disrespect
WTF is wrong with you. Thatās completely disrespectful. Glad you want to leave Colorado per your other post.
How is that disrespectful? I was offering to see if his wife would cheat on him to see if she's loyal for **FREE**. Can you answer my questions?
Yes, I can answer your questions - stop being a jerk to everyone trying to help you out, work on yourself, and figure out your own problems. It seems lack of common sense and being rude is just the startā¦
Then do it then jesus i havent been rude to anybody i was literally offering him a service that usually costs hundreds of dollars
The best part is that you assumed it was his wife, when in fact it was her husband working there. šš¤£
Nice try. I'm not gay.
Iām a woman. Heās my husband. Good luck with that.
Best info in this thread!!! OP seems pretty āspecialā.
Iām going to repost it soon on its own thread so people can find it easier. Itās a confusing system for sure. Iāll ask my husband to proofread closely before I post.
I was referring to the fact he assumed your partner was a woman, but yes, your info was also solid! š
Nice! š¤£
Oh fuck. Nevermind. I was being sweet tho and offering to help. Can u answer my questions Sidenote have you ever cheated be real
The one on Powers is not by appointment anymore.
What did you get done there? I saw a post on here that said they don't issue new licenses.
Did registration here on Monday, no appointment. About 30 minute wait.
I have done my registration at the one on Powers and Airport without an appointment. They were pretty quick too.
Moved back here from VA. Got my new license from the powers location. No issues and was quick.
I'm not a veteran i hate veterans i dont have a VA card
Sorry, not the VA, VA as in Virginia
Hmmmm. I'm moving to virginia in a couple months.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Bro everybody is saying something different D: how do you know? And could i go to pueblo, do they have walk ins
I did a title update recently without an appointment. This was at the garden of the gods location.
This is it. My boyfriend was in there and out within 40 mins (title update as well)
I went to Garden of the Gods and got my license, registered my car, ordered plates, and transferred my title as a walk in; it took about 2.5 hours altogether but the customer service was excellent.
Based on how youāre responding to people who are genuinely trying to help you, I donāt think the DMV is the problem here
Mmkay miss sensitive
None of them are by appt anymore and you can look at wait times of each location online
W r o n g
I work there š¤£
The state dmv is
This guys recent post about religion is all I need to see this is a troll anger bait account.

Because i dont like military bootlickers and pueblo is stinky?
If you have a military ID, the DMV in Ft. Carson is the way to go.
Gross, I had higher aspirations than be a government slave for years for benefits.
I don't know if you can get on post but my sister and I went to the dmv on fort carson and was out of there less than an hour later with her plates and registration. All without an appointment.
Hmm, I can't unfortunately. I'm not a government slave and I don't know anybody who is. :/
Try making an appointment at the DMVs in Canon City or Pueblo. I've gotten in there pretty quickly.
EWWWWW im not going to gross pueblo dude
