Do you think they will turn me down?

I tried calling our counties safe kids program to find out when/where car seat inspection locations were.  I must have called Tues or Wed of last week.  I haven't yet received a call back from the one person the website gives a name and number for and the program for the county doesn't have a website so it is just a national website, it only gives a name and phone of this one guy, who apparently doesn't answer or return phone calls.

The next county near us is actually in NC but is only 30-45 minutes away but it is still a different state.  They have an actual website with a calendar of inspection times and dates.  DH and I were wanting to have the car seat installed the end of next month and checked by this program.  I want to go to the NC one but am not sure they would let us since we live in a different state.  It is free and you don't need an appointment, you just have to get there early. 

Do you think they would have an issue with inspecting our car seat with us not being from either the county or even the state that the inspection center is in?

I don't think it matters if you're not from there.. And if they ask, say you just moved there and haven't gotten new license plates yet.

Are the requirements per state/county different? Id imagine they would all have the same standards for something like this.

I am really not sure, I didn't even think about the requirements being different!  I wouldn't think they are different though.

I dont think so. I had it done for dd's seat a while ago. But when I had it done they told me if I needed it redone to just call my local police station and they could help out too. You could try that, might save you a 45 minute trip.

I will have to call the police station, I went on the website for both the local police and fire stations but it doesn't mention anything about car seat inspections on either website.
