Princeton corridor residents no longer need to drive to Downtown Cincinnati or Red Bank Road to handle vehicle titles and driver's license renewals. A combined Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles office and Hamilton County Clerk of Courts Auto Title Office is open at 10400 Reading Road, Suite 105, in Evendale.

It's a one-stop shop.

Hamilton County Clerk of Courts Pavan V. Parikh hosted a ribbon cutting for the co-located office on March 5 and has been promoting the location on social media since. The office pairs BMV services with the Clerk of Courts' title division under one roof, allowing residents to renew a license and pick up a vehicle title in a single trip. The Clerk of Courts called the Evendale office a "convenient option for Hamilton County drivers" in a Tuesday, Aug. 4 social media post.

What you can do there

The BMV side handles driver's license renewals, vehicle registration renewals and other standard BMV services. The Auto Title Office processes titles for cars, motorcycles, mobile homes, travel trailers, boats, ATVs, personal watercraft and jet skis, and issues duplicates for lost or stolen titles.

One caveat: passport services are not available at the Evendale location. Residents needing passport work must still visit the Clerk of Courts offices at Seven Hills, Red Bank Road or Downtown Cincinnati.

Hours and contact

The two offices keep slightly different schedules. According to the Clerk of Courts' official Instagram announcement, the Auto Title Office is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The BMV is open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday, 8 a.m. to noon.

The Hamilton County Clerk of Courts website lists the Evendale office address and phone number: (513) 946-8186.
