NEW JERSEY — New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission facilities and U.S. Postal Service locations will be closed Wednesday, Nov. 11, in observance of Veterans Day.
All NJMVC facilities, including motor vehicle agencies, road test sites and inspection stations, will be closed for the state holiday. Facilities will operate during normal business hours for the remainder of the week.
The NJMVC website, NJMVC.gov, will remain available 24 hours a day, allowing residents to access more than 25 online services, schedule appointments, check required documents and find answers to common questions.
According to the commission, most motor vehicle transactions can be completed online without visiting an agency. Nearly all in-person services, including permits, driver testing, document renewals, REAL IDs, new titles and vehicle registrations, require an appointment scheduled through the NJMVC website.
The U.S. Postal Service will also observe Veterans Day on Wednesday, closing all post office locations nationwide. Regular mail delivery and retail services will resume Thursday, Nov. 12, according to USPS.
Although post offices will be closed, customers can continue using USPS.com to purchase stamps, order free shipping boxes and access services such as Hold Mail, Change of Address, PO Box rentals and renewals, and Click-N-Ship for printing prepaid shipping labels.
Self-service kiosks will also remain available in select post office lobbies, with many accessible 24 hours a day. The kiosks allow customers to purchase stamps, print postage for Priority Mail, Priority Mail Express and international shipments, weigh and mail packages, and access package tracking information.
As part of its ongoing retail modernization efforts, USPS is expanding self-service options at additional locations. Those services may include Rapid Dropoff Stations for customers with prepaid shipping labels, the ability to print shipping labels using merchant-provided QR codes and USPS Smart Lockers for package drop-offs and pickups.
Residents who need motor vehicle or postal services during the holiday can use the agencies’ online resources. Additional information about motor vehicle services is available at NJMVC.gov, while postal services and self-service options can be found at USPS.com.
