3 self-serve vehicle registration kiosks open

Cincinnati drivers can now renew their vehicle registration at self-serve kiosks in three area supermarkets.

The new “BMV4U Self-Service Terminals” allow people to renew noncommercial vehicle registrations using their driver's license information, according to the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles. Users can pay with a debit card, credit card or check.

Six other self-service station have already been activated in Columbus and Cleveland since the system went live in April. The BMV reported that more than 3,500 registration have been processed through the terminals so far

The kiosks in Cincinnati are all at Meijer supermarkets. The newest one was installed Tuesday at the Marburg Avenue store in Oakley.

The new technology is also available to drivers at the Eastgate Meijer and the Loveland Meijer on Ohio 22.

Registrar Don Petit said the kiosks are part of the bureau's effort to makes services available where residents are, without separate trips to BMV locations.
