04

Road-ready

Final check, paperwork, and you're back on Dixie Trail with a clear explanation of what was done.

Community & Sustainability

Part of the neighborhood, not just parked in it.

ACTS was built to serve the people around Dixie Trail — that means fair pricing, real conversations about your car, and a shop that shows up for the community and the environment.

  • 100% of used oil, coolant, and old tires recycled or responsibly disposed of, never landfilled.
  • Standing discount for teachers, first responders, and active military and veterans.
  • New Driver's Vehicle Guide — a free walkthrough for teens and new drivers covering fluid checks, tire pressure, and how to change a spare tire.
  • Sponsor of Feeding Our Neighbors, and school supply drives for Lacy Elementary and Martin Middle School.
