El Dorado Hills vehicle paperwork, with pick-up and drop-off

Registration Leaders is a private business contracted through the DMV Business Partner Automation program. El Dorado Hills is the farthest community we serve, so we built this page around the two things that save you the drive: paperwork pick-up and drop-off, and mobile VIN verification where the vehicle is parked.

Getting here from El Dorado Hills 30–45 minutes via Hwy 50 west and Hazel Ave

Highway 50 west to Hazel Avenue or Sunrise Blvd, north to Greenback Lane, then Greenback to Auburn Blvd. 6381 Auburn Blvd, Ste A, Citrus Heights. Or skip the drive: we can pick up and drop off.

02When we make sense

Two DMV offices nearby. Here is when we make sense.

El Dorado Hills residents typically use the DMV's Folsom field office on East Bidwell Street or the Placerville field office on Cold Springs Road. The DMV lists both as open weekdays and closed on weekends. People choose us instead in situations like these.

You would rather not drive at all

We can pick up the paperwork, process it at our counter and bring back the registration card, sticker or plates. Mobile VIN verification happens where the vehicle is parked.

Your free time is Saturday or after work

We are open seven days a week, walk-ins and appointments welcome: weekday evenings until 9pm, Saturday 10am to 4pm and Sunday 12pm to 4pm, when the field offices are closed.

Your household has more than one vehicle

Several cars, an RV and a trailer can be handled in one appointment or one pick-up run instead of separate trips.

03Pick-up and mobile

Farther out, so we come to you.

The services we suggest first for El Dorado Hills.

El Dorado Hills sits along Highway 50 in El Dorado County, a commuter community where many households keep more than one vehicle, and often an RV or a trailer as well. A trip to our Citrus Heights counter is a real drive, so for El Dorado Hills we usually start with two options:

  • Paperwork pick-up and drop-off: we collect your renewal notice, title or transfer documents, process them at our counter and bring back the finished registration, sticker or plates. We can also pick up a vehicle and return it for things like a smog check or VIN verification.
  • Mobile VIN verification: a vehicle last registered in another state, an RV, a trailer or a car that is not yet registered can be verified in your driveway, at your workplace or where the RV is parked.

Availability depends on our schedule, and the mobile cost depends on distance and time of service. We quote it before we go, so there is no surprise on the day.

04Getting here

Highway 50 west, then north.

If you prefer to come in, the usual route is Highway 50 west to Hazel Avenue or Sunrise Blvd, north to Greenback Lane, then Greenback into Citrus Heights until you reach Auburn Blvd. Our office is at 6381 Auburn Blvd, Suite A, in the Auburn Blvd shopping area near Walmart, Costco and Sam's Club. Allow about 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic and where in El Dorado Hills you start.

Walk-ins and appointments are both welcome, and an appointment guarantees your time. Check the what to bring list before you leave so nothing is missing.

05Services

Services for El Dorado Hills residents.

El Dorado County registration works the same as anywhere else in California, and we process it the same way. Buying a used car? Our sister dealership, Trusted Quality Auto Sales, is at the same address, and the title and registration are handled at our counter afterward.

06DMV alternative

A DMV alternative for El Dorado Hills drivers.

Most El Dorado Hills residents use the DMV's Folsom field office on East Bidwell Street or the Placerville field office on Cold Springs Road. The DMV lists its field offices as open on weekdays and closed on weekends.

Registration Leaders is open seven days a week, and walk-ins and appointments are both welcome: Monday to Friday, 10am to 9pm, Saturday, 10am to 4pm, and Sunday, 12pm to 4pm, so El Dorado Hills drivers can handle a title transfer, registration renewal or VIN verification on a weekday evening or a weekend afternoon instead of taking time off work.

We are a private business contracted through the DMV Business Partner Automation program, not the DMV: our service fee is charged in addition to DMV fees, and driver's licenses, ID cards and driving tests still happen at a DMV office.

07Questions

Common questions from El Dorado Hills.

Which DMV office do El Dorado Hills residents usually use?

Most people go to the Folsom field office on East Bidwell Street or the Placerville field office on Cold Springs Road. The DMV lists both as open on weekdays only and closed on weekends. We are an alternative when you want a weekend or evening appointment, or when you would rather not drive at all.

Do you offer pick-up and drop-off or mobile VIN verification in El Dorado Hills?

Yes. Because El Dorado Hills is farther from our office, pick-up and drop-off of paperwork and mobile VIN verification are the services we suggest first. Availability depends on our schedule, and the mobile cost depends on distance and time of service; we quote it before we go. Call (916) 595-8128 to arrange.

What is the best route from El Dorado Hills to your office?

Highway 50 west, then Hazel Avenue or Sunrise Blvd north to Greenback Lane, and Greenback to Auburn Blvd. Allow about 30 to 45 minutes depending on traffic and where in El Dorado Hills you start.

Does El Dorado County registration work differently?

No. California vehicle registration, titling and VIN verification work the same statewide, and a vehicle registered to an El Dorado Hills address is processed the same way at our Citrus Heights counter. Registration Leaders is a private business contracted through the DMV Business Partner Automation program, not the DMV, and our service fee is added to DMV fees.
