About this data

Where the list comes from and what it does and does not say
3in the directory
3in the state register
1rated
4.2average score
4thby size in this category

Portsmouth, Virginia has 3 schools across 2 ZIP codes, which is 4% of everything listed for Virginia.

All of them sit in Portsmouth County.

These 3 entries come from a register that publishes no registration dates at all. They were on the register when it was last refreshed, on September 22, 2026.

All 3 hold the same class of registration: FMCSA-registered ELDT training provider.

3 of the 3 (100%) hold more than one class of registration. Across this page the classes held include Class B (3), Class A (2), Hazardous Materials (2), Passenger (1), School Bus (1).

By what they actually deliver: 3 offer behind-the-wheel training on public roads, 3 offer behind-the-wheel training on a range and 3 offer classroom or online theory instruction. 3 of the 3 can deliver both the range and the public-road portions, which matters because 49 CFR 380.707(c) allows the theory and behind-the-wheel portions to come from different providers but requires both behind-the-wheel portions to come from the same one.

2 of 3 publish a phone number and 1 has a website.

The Training Provider Registry publishes a phone number and a website for some providers and not for others, so the coverage below varies by place.

1 of the 3 entry could not be placed on a map: the register gives a PO box, a bare route number or a road junction rather than a street address, and 1 of those is currently on the register. They are listed and searchable here by name, city and county, but not on the map.

1 of the 3 have a Google rating, averaging 4.2 across 5 reviews.

Portsmouth, Virginia ranks 4th of the 66 cities covered in this category, holding 4% of the listings, ahead of 62 others.

Every record on this page comes from Training Provider Registry, published by Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration on tpr.fmcsa.dot.gov as dataset training-provider-registry.

What the rules require

Portsmouth: questions

Where can I find schools in Portsmouth, VA?
3 schools in Portsmouth are on the official list: Gilco Transport Services at 2413 Wesley St; City of Portsmouth Public Utilities at 430 Meander Rd; Portsmouth Public Schools. 2 of them publish a phone number.
What is the nearest option outside Portsmouth?
160 Driving Academy - Norfolk - Classroom and Yard in Norfolk, about 3.5 miles away in a straight line. Open the listing for directions.
How many schools are there in Portsmouth county?
3 in Portsmouth county and 85 across Virginia.
Are these schools currently licensed?
The state register these records come from publishes no registration dates. Each of these 3 facilities appeared in the register when it was last refreshed, on September 22, 2026. Confirm the current position with the facility or the issuing authority before relying on it.
Why does one address hold several licenses?
Because a row in the source register is a registration, not a business. 3 of the 3 entries on this page hold more than one class of registration at the same address. They are merged into a single entry here, keyed on the place rather than on the registration, so one business is one listing and every class it holds is shown in its record detail.
Which of these can do the behind-the-wheel training?
3 of the 3 are registered for both the range and the public-road portions. The distinction matters: 49 CFR 380.707(c) permits the theory and behind-the-wheel portions to be delivered by separate providers, but requires both behind-the-wheel portions, range and public road, to come from the same provider. Breakdown here: behind-the-wheel public-road training 3, behind-the-wheel range training 3, theory instruction 3.
How many are rated?
1 of 3 have a Google rating, averaging 4.2 across 5 reviews.
Why are some entries missing from the map?
1 of these 3 records give a PO box, a bare route number or a road junction instead of a street address, so no coordinate could be derived for them. They are still listed and searchable by name, city and county, and they are left out of the map and the "nearest to me" results. Placing a PO box at a plausible-looking point would make the map look complete and be wrong.
