The Cranford Police Department's partnership with the NJMVC continues in 2023 on April 20th. A limited number of Real ID reservations are open, but other MVC business can be conducted that date. To reserve your place, residents are asked to download the free Cranford PD App today. This is the department's first NJMVC Mobile event for this calendar year, but more dates will be announced for 2023 in the future.

The Cranford Police Department's goal is to bring this mobile unit to Cranford to help those with limited mobility or access to a traditional MVC Center.  The Mobile Unit can serve up to 40 customers, with an additional 10 customers to be placed on a standby list.

Here are some services that the Mobile Unit may provide:

• Driver License renewals can be processed within six (6) months of expiration and upgrading to the REAL ID driver license.

• Registration renewals, Veteran Handicap and Purple Heart recipients’ placards.

• Permits and Non-Driver ID.

• License plate drop-offs are also allowed and do not count against the number of customers we can serve during the event.

• REQUIRED: Six (6) points of ID is required and a social security card. Those who do not possess a social security card or an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) may submit an affidavit form which can be found on the MVC website www.njmvc.gov. In place of a social security card, a customer can present a W2 from the past tax year (2020), a current pay stub (number cannot be redacted), or a 1099 form. Only listed can be used as replacements for a social security card.

• Hours of Operation: 10:00 am to 2:00 pm

THE FOLLOWING TRANSACTIONS CANNOT BE PERFORMED AT THE MOBILE UNIT(S)

• Business vehicle registrations

• CDL’s

• Endorsements (aside from boats & motorcycles)

• Knowledge tests

• Out of State License Transfers

• Permit tests (we only issue permits)

• New Titles/Registrations (in-state or out of state)
