I am looking into starting a new business that will have at least four lifts that will be rented out on and hourly, half-day, full-day, or weekly basis. I am still looking for garages, but it will most likely be in the East Valley somewhere. I will also rent out tools. I will have an large air compressor that you will be able to hook up your own air tools to.

I plan to have the garage open 7 days a week from 7 to 6. This may change depending on the needs.

This is going to give all of you guys that want to do your own work on your cars the chance to do so with the right equipment.

I would like any input that you guys have.

 

It sucks that you are all the way in Az! Argh! Sounds like a great idea. Make sure you have insurance to cover yourself. Good luck!

 

Anyone know of something like this around here in So Cal?

dude, you live in diamond bar?? i live in fullerton, i go to church in diamond bar blvd every sunday

 

Hey, you go to St. Dennis? or the other one? I always see tons & tons of cars parked along the stree by St. Dennis, never knew people came from that far away!

 

Don't tell me we are going to have a burnout party infront of the church...

 

Great idea, hope its in Gilbert! I live at Val Vista and Elliot. Probably have seen me driving my Teal Z28 around.

 

Thats a sweet idea. I Live in Tucson, but would actually drive to phoenix if something like that was available.

 

It is a great idea if he covers his a$$ with insurance.

 

you are right about the insurance. no one knows how to write this policy.

 

Well, I am finally opening the shop. It will be open the first week in september. It is called Gearhead Garage. I have a 5 bay shop with two 4 post lifts and two 2 post lifts. I also have tools that you can rent out or you can bring your own. The bays will rent out for $25 per hour during the week and $30 per hour during the weekend. The hours are:
Sunday 7am - 6pm
Monday- Thrusday: 7am - 8pm
Friday- Saturday: 7 am - 12am
The address is 1021 N Gilbert Rd Suite 104, Gilbert, AZ 85234
Phone: 480-497-8811

 

We do this already here in Vegas.
Are those rates a day or hourly?
And yes, Liability ins. covers the *** question.
Good luck with it, it is a great thing to do for those who do not have access to tools and lifts.
Before you know it you will be working on their cars, and then possibly rolling into another prominent f-bod/vette/Impala shop.

 

I'm glad you were able to get this going. It's quite a hike from So Cal but if business takes off... perhaps you could consider branching out.

 

You should give board members a discount

 

I believe AZFBA members might be getting a discount...huh Matt, think you can hook us up
