For Public Agencies

Municipal & Transit Fleet Services

Transit districts, cities, school districts, police and fire — painting, repair, fabrication and maintenance under one roof.

We work with public agencies. Transit districts, cities, school districts, police and fire departments across Southern California use us for painting, collision repair, fabrication and scheduled maintenance on their fleets.

Public fleet work has requirements a general body shop doesn't deal with: agency color and graphics standards, DOT and compliance markings, documented estimates and supplements, vehicles that can't all be down at once, and paperwork that has to hold up. We're set up for it.
