Getting an MOT in Staffordshire

Test centres in Staffordshire are spread across 13 postcode districts (B77, B78, B79, DE14, ST13, ST14 and more), so there's usually one within a short drive wherever you are in town. 2 of the 18 stations here also appear in our rated garage directory, so you can see customer ratings before you book.

You can book an MOT up to a month (minus a day) before your current certificate runs out and keep the same renewal date, so booking ahead costs you nothing. Bring nothing but the car — the tester looks it up by registration. If it fails, you're entitled to a free retest at the same station within 10 working days for most repairs. Run through our pre-test checklist first: lights, tyres and wipers alone cause a huge share of avoidable failures.
