The Meade County Clerk's office is hands down the best DMV I've dealt with. Every worker has always been nice, helpful and quick to lend a hand with all my motor vehicle registration/taxes, voter registration, and marriage license needs throughout the eleven years I have lived in Meade County. Thank you, ladies!!

Our family has been using the Meade County offices for 2 years, primarily for car registrations - new, old, transfers, titling, etc.. Always polite and knowledgeable, the ladies in the DMV are always spot on.

Been living in Meade co over 20 years been dealing with Meade Co dmv for multiple years, they have always been kind to us and service has been pretty fast unless you go close to Holidays it can get busy. The only thing now is the state has done away with getting an ID/permit/license in county which is a huge inconvenience for a lot of folks especially people who don’t like to leave county or can’t leave county not sure who made this decision but it wasn’t the best choice to make in my opinion because Elizabethtown is booked solid for several months. I do hope they bring it back to the local courts.

I wish the Clerks office would post a calendar of closures to keep people from getting off work to show up and see a pink paper that says "Sorry we closed today at 1130 for training". That can be an inconvenience for people that have a hard time getting there during regular hours. Just my 2 cents.
