For residents who live in and around Ocoee, Florida, as well as folks who reside within Orange County, one of the closest DMV offices that you can make an appointment at is located within the West Oaks Mall. While the mall itself is way past its heyday when it comes to shopping, the Ocoee Wek Oaks Mall DMV office is a pretty busy place, so making an appointment is a must!
With that in mind, here’s everything you need to know about every driving and license-related service that you could get at the DMV Ocoee West Oaks Mall, including vehicle registrations or renewing your driver’s license, and more! And, we’ll also discuss how you can contact them, as well as visiting the office in person, or the process for trying to make an appointment:
1) Contact Information

- Fax Number: (407) 440-1913
- Address: 9401 W Colonial Dr, Suite 360, Ocoee, FL 34761
Unfortunately, compared to most other DMV offices that I came across in the past, the Ocoee West Oaks Mall DMV office has very limited contact options, with the only option being to call them, usually reserved for general inquiries. Speaking of, your phone calls are usually handled by an automated answering machine, but you can then speak to a human representative.
Otherwise, if you have other general DMV-related inquiries, you could also directly contact the Florida Highway Safety & Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV). Alternatively, you can also try contacting the Orange County Tax Collector’s office, as they are active on social media – this includes their social media handles on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

If you’re trying to visit or fulfill your appointment at the Ocoee West Oaks Mall DMV office, the best times that I’d recommend you visit are in the early mornings, typically around 8:30 AM to 10:00 AM. These hours are generally less busy, so you should expect shorter wait times as well as shorter queues.
On the other hand, I’d advise that you avoid visiting them during lunchtimes (about 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM) and on late afternoons (3:00 PM to 5:00 PM). These are generally the Ocoee West Oak Mall DMV office’s busiest hours, so you ought to expect longer wait times.
As such, to avoid long waits or even lengthier delays to get your work done over at the Ocoee West Oaks Mall DMV office, you should make an appointment earlier on, which you could do via the FLHSMV’s online appointment scheduling system.

- Directions: The Ocoee West Oaks Mall DMV office is located inside the West Oaks Mall. For easier and more specific guidance, you can use the mall’s main entrance, and follow the signs to the DMV office in Suite 360.
The upside to having a DMV office located within a fairly large mall is the ample availability of parking spaces, including those reserved just for visitors going to the DMV office. Additionally, there are also plenty of disabled parking spaces, and wheelchair accessibility is available.

So, remember to schedule an appointment ahead of time, prior to your intended visit.
If you aren’t able to make an appointment (or are hoping that you could make it past without one), walk-ins are accepted for most services at this DMV office. However, be aware that wait times can be far longer without an appointment, and walk-ins are generally only accepted on a ‘first come, first serve’ basis only.

There’s a lot of flexibility with choosing the booking time too, as you can book appointments a few days or up to a week in advance, prior to your visit. As always, I highly recommend that you check the availability of time slots for your appointment as early as possible.
