About this data

Where the list comes from and what it does and does not say
37in the directory
37in the state register
27rated
4.5average score
31stby size in this category

Kinston, North Carolina has 37 stations across 4 ZIP codes, which is 1% of everything listed for North Carolina.

All of them sit in Lenoir County.

These 37 entries come from a register that publishes no license dates at all. They were on the register when it was last refreshed, on September 27, 2026.

5 of the 37 (14%) hold more than one class of license. Across this page the classes held include safety (37), emissions (5).

11 have a website.

This list publishes no phone numbers, so no listing drawn from it shows one. That is how the source publishes it, not a gap in this record.

4 of the 37 entries 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 4 of those are currently on the register. They are listed and searchable here by name, city and county, but not on the map.

27 of the 37 have a Google rating, averaging 4.5 across 4422 reviews. Scores run from 3.9 to 5.0.

Kinston, North Carolina ranks 31st of the 583 cities covered in this category, holding 1% of the listings, ahead of 552 others.

Every record on this page comes from Inspection station locator, published by North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles on ncdot.gov as dataset dmv/emissions.

What the rules require

Kinston: questions

Where can I find stations in Kinston, NC?
37 stations in Kinston are on the official list: Massey Motor CO INC at 4760 Hwy 70 West; Davis Wholesale Tire CO. at 1601 W New Bern Rd.; BMW of Kinston at 1063 US 258 N, and 34 more listed above.
What is the nearest option outside Kinston?
Kings Automotive Repair in Kingston, about 4.7 miles away in a straight line. Open the listing for directions.
How many stations are there in Lenoir county?
46 in Lenoir county and 5,880 across North Carolina.
Are these stations currently licensed?
The state register these records come from publishes no license dates. Each of these 37 facilities appeared in the register when it was last refreshed, on September 27, 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 license, not a business. 5 of the 37 entries on this page hold more than one class of license at the same address. They are merged into a single entry here, keyed on the place rather than on the license, so one business is one listing and every class it holds is shown in its record detail.
How many are rated?
27 of 37 have a Google rating, averaging 4.5 across 4422 reviews.
Why are some entries missing from the map?
4 of these 37 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.

A listing closed, moved or missing? It gets checked against the source

Something wrong on this page?

These records come from state registers and the registers are not perfect. If a listing is closed, has moved, or the license details do not match what the state told you, say so and it gets checked against the source.
