DOVER, Del. — Drivers who open a new E-ZPass Delaware account during the month of August will receive a transponder at no cost, the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and E-ZPass Delaware announced. This offer runs from August 1 through August 31, 2025, and is not applicable to commercial accounts. The transponder is a small electronic device that mounts on the vehicle’s windshield and allows users to pay tolls automatically through a prepaid account on Delaware’s toll roads, bridges, and tunnels.
This promotion comes ahead of scheduled toll increases set to take effect on August 15 on major routes including Interstate 95 in Newark, Route 301 Mainline, and Route 1 at Biddles Corner and Dover. Interested drivers can register for a new E-ZPass account online at ezpassde.com, by calling 1-888-397-2773, or by visiting any of the designated E-ZPass locations throughout Delaware. These locations include the E-ZPass Service Center at 22-24 West Lookerman Street in Dover, as well as the toll plazas at Dover, Biddles Corner in Middletown, and Newark. Walk-in assistance at toll plazas is available around the clock. The Delaware Department of Transportation hopes this initiative will encourage more drivers to take advantage of seamless toll payments before the toll rate increases take effect.
