The state publishes the Albion week as Monday to Friday 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM, and those are the counter hours rather than the hours of the building around it.
Albion is shut at the weekend, so a Saturday errand means one of the 14 New York offices that does open on a Saturday.
The next closing the state names for Albion is Veterans' Day, November 11, 2026.
What Albion handles
The state lists 9 transactions for Albion by name:
- Take a Car or Motorcycle Permit Test 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM
- Knowledge Test Oral By Appointment
- Enforcement 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM
- Knowledge Test Escort 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM
- Take a CDL Test 8:30 AM - 1:30 PM
- Dealer Transporter

- Dealer Motorcycle
- Upgrade to Real ID or EDL
A transaction that is not on that list is not done at 14016 Route 31W, which is the point of the list: the state publishes it office by office rather than claiming every counter does everything.
As a county office, Albion works under section 205 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law, which has the county clerk act as the agent of the Commissioner of Motor Vehicles in registering vehicles, issuing non-driver identification cards and drivers' licenses on an inspector's certification, receiving certificate of title papers and handling motor vehicle enforcement transactions.
What the transactions on the Albion list actually require is set out guide by guide: New York permit test and road test guide, New York motorcycle license guide, New York commercial driver license guide and New York REAL ID and Enhanced license guide.
Who runs Albion
Albion is run by the county clerk as an agent of the state DMV.
That is why the hours above are set in Orleans rather than in Albany, and why the clerk keeps 10.75 percent of the gross receipts from the motor vehicle work done at 14016 Route 31W, the retention percentage written into section 205.
Orleans County, where Albion sits, is one of the 51 New York counties whose clerk holds that agency, while the 11 the statute excepts by name, Albany, Bronx, Kings, Nassau, New York, Onondaga, Queens, Richmond, Rockland, Suffolk and Westchester, have state run district offices instead.
The notice the state is showing for Albion
The notice the state is carrying against Albion reads: Need to be in line by 3:45 PM to be served.
It is the office's own wording out of the state's table, and it sits on top of the hours and the transaction list for Albion.
Appointments and what you can do online
On its office locator the DMV says it "strongly encourage[s] making a reservation" at offices such as Albion, and that when waits are long only people holding one are let in. The same page says booking is "not available for all DMV office locations", so whether Albion takes a reservation is settled on that locator and not here.
Anything that can be finished online does not need Albion at all, and the New York online services guide sets out which transactions those are.
Other DMV offices in Orleans County
The state lists Albion as the only DMV listing in the whole of Orleans County, so the next nearest counter is across a county line.
Every one of the 142 New York listings, Albion among them, is on the New York DMV office list, and the public records for this county are on the Orleans County page.
Before you go to Albion
Call (585) 589-3214 before setting out for 14016 Route 31W if your transaction is at all unusual, because the state files that number as the public line for Albion itself rather than as a statewide queue.
Take to Albion the documents the transaction needs rather than the ones you happen to have: what counts for a New York license or ID is listed in the REAL ID and Enhanced license guide, and what a registration needs is in the registration guide. A second trip to Albion costs more than the reading does.
What you pay is set statewide rather than at the Albion counter, and the current schedule is in the New York DMV fee guide.
