Vehicle Repair Request
The majority of our time is spent repairing vehicles, and we love it! If you or someone you know is in need of vehicle repairs, please fill out our online application. One of our team members will connect with you about eligibility and timelines.
Donate A Vehicle
We accept vehicle donations and can provide you with a tax-deductable receipt for your gift. We then determine how to do the most good with the donated vehicle, whether to give it away to someone in need, or sell it and use the income to repair more vehicles.

SHIFT GARAGE partners with local organizations to assist those we serve through simple budgeting and vehicle maintenance classes. One of our SHIFT GARAGE team members would love to connect with you!
Serve With Us
You do not need to be a “Master Mechanic” to join us on the SHIFT GARAGE TEAM! If all you can do is dust a dashboard and vacuum carpets, we would love to have you!
ABOUT SHIFT GARAGE
The SHIFT GARAGE TEAM exists to help those we serve fully realize the plan Jesus Christ has for their lives.
Our board reviews every application to determine which applicants have a legitimate need. If a need is discovered, we offer deeply discounted repair services.
We accomplish this through partnerships with parts suppliers that share our vision. Volunteers also play a key role and serve weekly to help repair vehicles.
Because of that we offer vehicle repairs for just the price of parts with no labor costs and no markup on parts.
Applicants, once approved, will come to the SHIFT GARAGE SHOP for a free estimate. We will perform a walkaround with the owner of the vehicle and inspect the parts of the vehicle that affect safety, legality, and reliability. Once we have a full picture of the issues with vehicle, we will discuss which repairs are the most urgent.
Then an invoice is generated at the discounted rate. Once that invoice has been paid, the work is performed and the applicant receives their repaired vehicle. We believe this model allows our applicants to share in the responsibility of owning a vehicle and retain dignity in their situation.
