The Forrest Shop crew in front of a truck

Built by people who ran trucks

After over 10 years of managing trucks, we decided to open our own shop. We had seen first-hand what it's like to pay high prices for work that didn't meet expectations. Forrest Shop is about something different: quality work at fair prices, with honesty you can check.
