Handy’s Service Station

I went to Handy’s for snow tires this morning and had a good experience. I thought their prices seemed really reasonable, especially compared to going to the dealership. The manager was very knowledgeable and took the time to go through the various options I had for tires. I would highly recommend bringing you car there for service. I plan on using them again in the future.

I’ve gotten my car fixed at Handy’s many times now. First, let me start off by saying I have a pile of junk for a car. It’s an old ’87 VW Cabrio that has been driven back and forth from NJ to VT every couple of months for the past 4 years. Safe to say this car should not still be running at this point.
The staff is super friendly and personable, and honest people compared to other mechanics I’ve had. Their prices are also reasonable enough. They care about their customers, too — They always offer me a ride home in their truck after bringing my car in, and Handy’s even drove me in their tow truck over to my car when I let it run out of gas and went to their place to get a gallon of it. Then the driver put the gas in for me! What a dream for a NJ driver!
Anyway, I’d recommend Handy’s over anywhere else in the area, and with my car, I’d say I’m a fair judge of mechanics. The location is awesome, too. Honest people are hard to come by in the mechanic’s world.

On vacation in Colchester, on Lake Champlain, my battery gave up the ghost. I called my private road service bunch, but they are far too slow.
Handy’s came first for the jump and then for the tow. The shop is adjacent to the wonderful Church St Market, so no tourist time was lost.
