What is a bay rental?

You rent a professional bay with a lift, tools and space, and do the work on your own car yourself. There are no shop labor rates and no waiting for a mechanic. We're at 320 W Alexis Rd, Toledo, OH 43612.

Do I need to bring my own tools?

No. A 298-piece mechanics set, air impact, floor jack and stands, strut compressor, shop press, drain equipment and work lights come with every bay. You can bring your own tools too.

I've never used a car lift. Is that okay?

Yes. Coopers staff raise and lower your car, give you a quick safety walkthrough on your first visit, and are around for advice. They don't do the work for you.

How do I book, and what is the deposit?

Book online by the hour, day or 6-day week. A $10 deposit holds your spot ($50 for a week) and comes off your bill. It's refunded if you cancel 24 or more hours ahead.

Open Wednesday through Monday, 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM. We're closed Tuesdays. All bays must be cleared by closing time unless we've arranged staffed extended hours ($30 an hour, 2-hour minimum).

The balance is due when you finish: cash or Zelle with no fee, or card with a 3% processing fee.

Can I rent a bay for a full day or a week?

Yes. A day is a full open day (10:00 AM to 6:00 PM) in one bay. A week is six open days in a row at one flat price, with Tuesdays skipped.
