After a loved one’s passing, you may need to deal with items such as driver’s licenses, license plates, and handicap placards that have specific rules governing how they are discarded. Because some of these items can be used toward identity theft, it is important you follow these rules. 

When dealing with a driver’s license or handicap placard, mail them to the following Driver Control Section address below with a note explaining the situation. 

Colorado Division of Motor Vehicles

For license plates, contact your local county motor vehicle office as each county processes license plates separately.
