We Built This Because Shops Waste Your Time

Ditch The Shop started with a simple frustration: why does getting your brakes done require losing an entire day? Drive there, drop it off, wait, hope they don't upsell you. We thought there had to be a better way. There is.

Who We Are

The Short Version

We're a mobile mechanic service. We come to your driveway, your office, your apartment lot -- wherever your car is -- and fix it there. Brakes, oil changes, batteries, starters, alternators, diagnostics, spark plugs. The stuff that keeps your car running and safe.

We're based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota and currently serve the Sioux Falls metro and surrounding areas. We're expanding -- more cities, more states, more mechanics. But we're doing it right, not fast.

Why We Exist

The auto repair industry hasn't changed in 50 years

You still have to drive your car to a shop, hand over your keys to a stranger, sit in a waiting room, and hope for the best. The pricing is a mystery until you get the bill. The timeline is "we'll call you." The whole experience is designed around the shop's convenience, not yours.

We flipped that. Your time matters more than our overhead. We don't have a building because you don't need us to have one. We don't have a waiting room because you shouldn't have to wait. We show you the price before we start because that's how buying things should work.

We're not a backyard mechanic with a toolbox.

We're building a company that changes how people think about car repair. Professional service, real parts, real warranty -- just without the building you never needed to visit.

What We Stand For

Four things. Non-negotiable.

Your Time Comes First

Every decision starts with: does this save the customer time? No drop-offs, no waiting rooms, no "we'll call you back."

Honest, Always

If your pads are fine and rotors just need cleaning, that's what we tell you. We'd rather earn your trust than squeeze extra dollars.

Price Before We Start

You see the exact number before we touch your car. Parts, labor, everything. The price we quote is the price you pay.

Stand Behind the Work

12-month / 12,000-mile warranty. If something goes wrong, we come back and fix it. No arguments, no fine print.

Where We're Going

Sioux Falls first. Then everywhere.

Right now we're in Sioux Falls and the surrounding area. That's where we started, that's where we're proving the model. But this isn't a one-city thing.

The plan is simple: build something that works so well in one place that it's obvious it should exist everywhere. Get the service right. Get the experience right. Get the people right. Then grow.

We're not trying to be the biggest overnight. We're trying to be the best first. The kind of service where you text a friend "just use these guys" without thinking twice. That's the bar.

How It Works

Simple enough to explain in 30 seconds

You request a quote. We text you exact pricing within 10 minutes. You pick a time and place. Our mechanic shows up with the right parts and tools for your specific vehicle. We do the work, send you before-and-after photos, and you pay when it's done.

That's it. No account to create. No app to download. No subscription. Just car repair that respects your time.
