Buying a used car and need a smog check and a title transfer? Drive up to 548 S Boulder Hwy with no appointment, or call (702) 568-7600.
Mon–Fri 8am–6pm · Sat 8am–4pm
Buying a used car and the title still has to get into your name? Pull into the AutoZone parking lot at 548 S Boulder Hwy in Henderson, adjacent to Watermill Express, for a smog check and title transfer paperwork in one visit. Most smog checks take 15 minutes or less, with no appointment needed. The Nevada DMV mails the title itself, which can take about six weeks. Submitting your paperwork now starts that process sooner. Drive up now or call (702) 568-7600.
A used car sale does not need to wait for a DMV office appointment. Drive up to the Boulder Hwy hut and your title transfer paperwork can be submitted to the Nevada DMV without an appointment. Not sure what to bring? Call (702) 568-7600 before you make the trip.
Most private sales happen on a weekend, and you should not have to hold the paperwork until Monday. This hut is open Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 6 PM and Saturday from 8 AM to 4 PM. Henderson Plaza, Basic Road, downtown Henderson, and the neighborhoods east of I-515 are all a short drive away.
Handing someone your title and paperwork takes trust. Smog Busters has been family-owned since 1988, has completed more than 2 million checks, and is licensed, bonded, and authorized by the State of Nevada. If something looks off on your paperwork, you will know before you leave.
Boulder Hwy is one of Henderson’s original corridors, and our hut at 548 S Boulder Hwy sits right on it. If you live in Cinnamon Ridge, Copper Canyon, Fiesta Park, Indigo Run, Lakeside Highlands, River Landing, or the Black Mountain area, your smog check is a quick stop on a road you already drive. Buying or selling a used car? Bring the title along and handle the transfer paperwork in the same visit.
If you drive a diesel or need repairs after a failed test, call (702) 568-7600 and we’ll point you to the right Smog Busters location.
