Free Public COVID-19 Testing in Moorpark

The Ventura County Health Care Agency offers free drive-through testing at Moorpark College and across Ventura County for anyone who lives or works in Ventura County.  You will not be charged for the test, and you don’t need to have health insurance.  You do need to pre-register at www.vccovid.com.

The PCR test is a self-administered nasal swab, and results are sent via E-mail or text message.  The test determines if you currently have COVID-19; it is not an antibody test that determines if you have previously had COVID-19.

The Moorpark testing site is at:

Moorpark College, 7075 Campus Road
Northeast corner of campus, in the Charles Temple Observatory parking lot (approach from the west, from Collins Drive)
Normally Every Day, 10AM - 7PM (check www.venturacountyrecovers.org for daily updates to hours)
Pre-register at www.vccovid.com

If you have questions about your results, please visit the Frequently Asked Questions.  If you have not received your results after five days, please contact the lab.
