Sherwood DEQ Test Station

Came in 1/22/26 around 8:45am (15 minute wait with lines halfway to the road-IMPRESSIVELY QUICK) David R. was VERY friendly and super knowledgeable with all the questions I had- (He made my experience at DEQ very personable and all around great!) I’ve been coming here for quite some time now and I always recommend all family/Friends to go to this location in Sherwood not just for the quick turn over time but also for the great staff! Thanks again everyone- See you in 2 years!

I had such a great experience at the DEQ location in Sherwood and wanted to share how smooth and efficient the whole process was. I arrived early, right when they opened, and was the first one in line. From start to finish, the entire visit took about 15 minutes — truly fast and easy! The staff was extremely polite, professional, and welcoming. They explained everything clearly, handled my vehicle quickly, and made the process absolutely stress-free. Not only did I get my emissions test done, but I was also able to take care of my registration and receive my new tags right there on the spot — no trip to the DMV required. That convenience alone deserves five stars! Everyone I interacted with was friendly and courteous, and you can tell this team really values efficiency and customer service

The line was long but moved quickly. I was in and out in ~20 minutes on a Wednesday morning. Got my emissions test and tags. Alex was quick, efficient, friendly, and was listening to KEXP radio in the office - nice! If anything is going to help soften the blow of a $350 vehicle registration renewal fee, it is Cheryl Waters' soothing voice introducing me to cool new indie music.

Not a positive experience, had to drive in a second time immediately after driving out. Edit, second time through, asked for a different lane, same guy. Yeah, zero stars if possible. Edit 2: Went to the Hillsboro DEQ and they did my test. Yeah, this Sherwood one is complete trash.

So much better than Hillsboro! I was there today (Saturday), and there was no wait whatsoever. The people are very nice, even though my car is still "unready" after 3 tests.
