Houston CDL and public office directory
Houston Gessner is a DPS commercial testing site on South Gessner Road. Someone registering a vehicle in Harris County instead starts with the county tax office. If your Houston mailing address falls in another county, use that county’s motor vehicle office. Bring your DPS appointment confirmation when you call about a rental so the truck can be matched to the test.
Use your appointment notice for the exact testing site or court. Check the official office page for hours, eligibility and precinct boundaries. These addresses belong to the listed organizations.
