"DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU ARE A YOUNG WOMAN"
"I came into the shop to get quotes on some leaks on my van, told the guy it was coming from the water pump, told him my tie rods and idler arms were going bad"
"Green Drop Garage has been super helpful for all my car needs"
"I took my car in a couple of days ago to get a flat looked at and ended up needing a handful of other services as well"
"If I am ever in the area and in need of car maintenance I’ll be going back to these folks"
DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU ARE A YOUNG WOMAN. I went to Green Drop Garage to get a tire patched after realizing that one of my tires had a nail lodged into it. I went in expecting to pay $40 for a tire patch, but after inspecting the tire, the man working told me that he wasn't sure that the repair would hold because of the location of the nail, and recommended I replace the tire. He said "If it were me and my car, I would rather spend $120 to replace the tire and be sure I won't have any problems down the road." In the moment, I really thought this guy was looking out for me and had the best interest of my vehicle in mind. So sure, I spent the extra $80 to just replace the tire. I had no idea that it is absolutely NOT RECOMMENDED to replace just one tire because the myriad of issues different tread depths can cause down the line. The worker NEVER mentioned this to me, while every mechanic I have spoken to since has told me that they would NEVER EVER try to sell someone just one tire. Especially someone who drives a 4 wheel drive vehicle like mine. I feel like the worker knew that I would've just risked the tire patch if the alternative was to replace all four tires, so he put my vehicle at risk to try to sell me one tire. Could I have done some research before making the purchase? Sure. But I really didn't expect to be recommended something that could have long term negative effects on my vehicle. Never coming here again.
I came into the shop to get quotes on some leaks on my van, told the guy it was coming from the water pump, told him my tie rods and idler arms were going bad. Basically that I needed to get it road worthy to drive 2k miles because of a family emergency. They looked at my van for 20 minutes and charged me 80$ to tell me what I already told them, and over quoted me on every single diagnostic. Idler arms take 20 minutes to replace, and each one is 30-50$, I know because I swapped them out 4 years ago myself. And I told him I had before, the labor quote was 300$. The parts 120$. He told me his mechanics make 150$ an hour. 2 hours to swap 2 idler arms, for 4 bolts and 2 nuts. Not even gonna get into the other quotes because they’re all as steep as the first example. Eric who runs the shop seems nice, but is a shark. Save yourself the time and money and go anywhere but here. Also if you’re high risk, go somewhere else because these guys are walking around the shop interacting without masks on until someone enters the shop. Response: Good on you for paying your people and doing right by them, doesn’t change that the quote is ridiculous/not accurate, not even close and doesn’t do the customer right. As someone with long haulers, and is high risk, it’s embarrassing that you blatantly lie about the state of “precautions” your shop is taking. I was just there. Be good.
Green Drop Garage has been super helpful for all my car needs. It was very easy to schedule an appointment and there was a quick turnaround for an oil change and tire rotation on my first visit. I chose to be a member for $21 a month since I was driving to work more. When I got my first flat tire, the membership was well worth it. I was able to drop off my car in the morning without needing to make an appointment and picked up my car by the end of the day with four new tires and changed transmission and differential fluid. Michael and the team were a great help, and he kept in touch throughout the day about the best tires for year-round driving at the best price. They also paid for my Lyft to and from work! I’m not a “car guy” so it was very helpful that Michael was able to explain the work that was being done and reviewed my options with me. I felt in good hands the whole time and recommend Green Drop Garage to anyone with a car.
I took my car in a couple of days ago to get a flat looked at and ended up needing a handful of other services as well. The customer service here is excellent. Michael, at the front desk, is clearly extremely knowledgeable and went above and beyond to answer my questions and try to fix problems I didn't even ask him to fix. Give that man a raise! I also spoke with another mechanic over the phone, whose name I regretfully did not catch, but he was super knowledgeable as well and did not rush through answering my questions. I really appreciate their willingness to spend time talking through the issues with me, as someone who is not particularly knowledgeable about car maintenance. The service was pretty fast too. I will 100% be a return customer and will recommend them to my friends.
If I am ever in the area and in need of car maintenance I’ll be going back to these folks. I walked in with my car having an issue, unable to get me home, 2 hours away from home, and these guys were booked out a whole week, but asked me what was happening. When I explained I was told to grab my car so they can check to see whats going on, they found the issue and even though I didn’t have an appointment they were able to fit me in to help me get home. Of course always make an appointment and wait your turn, but these guys were super professional, helpful, fast, and helped me out of a really really hard situation when they didn’t have too. Everything about this awful experience was made better when I walked in this garage, I cannot recommend enough.
I've been a member of the oil change service for a little over a year and it has been worth every penny. This location is convenient for my work commute, but have had similar experiences at two of the other locations. I have a 2002 VW which has needed its fair share of maintenance recently. I can't speak highly enough of the staff, especially Eric and Joe at Uptown. They helped me prioritize maintenance needs and were thorough in explaining problems, symptoms, and creative ways to fix mission critical pieces. I feel confident that my car will not only get me where I need to go, but have also felt drastic improvements in performance. I highly recommend Green Drop Garage, especially this location and the people that work here. Thanks!
I have had the GreenDrop Membership for about a year now and I am more that pleased. The reminders make staying on top of your car maintenance a breeze. The website istreamlines appointments with your desired time and offers several locations around the Portland metro area to chose from. I’ve been to three, and they all have the same top notch service. The owner cares about his customers and his employees. I was happy to learn that he makes sure they make a living wage, while also maintaining competitive prices for customers. I will continue my membership for the foreseeable future. I recommend everyone come to Green Drop for service and any repairs you may need. Fantastic people!
This is apparently a new additional location for the Green Drop team which is really convenient for us due to being close to work. Big bonus for being next to Fred Meyer too because we were able to get some shopping done while waiting. Shop is super clean and friendly staff! What I love about these guys is their entire concept ... keep things "green" (environmentally friendly). Totally Portland ... Kombucha, Friendly smiles, Helpful and just all around cool. If you are still looking for "that" shop that is honest with your money, give these guys a shot!
I’ve been a car care member here for something close to 5+ years and they’ve been amazing the entire time. Appointments are super easy to schedule online, and I love that their estimates and recommendations are all done online as well so that I have time to look it over and make the best decision in the moment. They’re honest and upfront about what my car needs and what can be pushed until the next visit. Everyone in the shop is always pleasant to interact with. I know when I make an appointment here my car is in good hands!
In full rain on a busy street, my tire went completely flat. After calling two nearby services I was discouraged by attitudes and the proposed over $200 pricing for a simple tire change. Then, I found Jake at Green Drop. He arrived and rescued me, took my tire, repaired it, put it back on in their impeccable shop, and charged me only for the flat repair. He GAVE me the rescue part and said to "pass it on." Imagine, in this era of minimal community, this classy young man felt like family. He made my day. Wonderful.
I went here this weekend (Saturday) to get an oil change. On the fly I asked if they could also replace my back windshield wiper and fill up my tires because they were a little low. I left my car in their care and came back about two hours later--they text you when you're ready. I thought they did a great job and will try going here again for any future matter! I was also really happy they could get me in on a Saturday. Everywhere else was booked for the weekends which is hard when you work.
Skylar is an absolute treasure and so great at what he does. He fit me in last minute when I had an issue with my tires I couldn’t figure out, was so kind, and resolved my issue so quickly he didn’t even charge me. As a woman, I’ve had other mechanics at other shops try to take advantage of me, which is always disheartening. So finding a shop that 1. Is great at what they do 2. Has kind and trustworthy mechanics is EVERYTHING. 10/10 recommend
I've decided to enroll in their monthly basic service plan, and I'm glad I've given them my business. I had left my lights on and had a dead battery. My jumper cables were not long enough for my new car, and Joe took time off of his day and drove me back to my car to give me a jump. They got me to work on time, and were super positive and not demeaning about the whole experience and did this free of charge for being a member.
If you are looking for honest, friendly mechanics this is the shop for you. I went in and got an oil change and found out about their membership they offer. What a great service, takes all the worry away. I was able to walk around and do shopping while I wait. It's in a great location. Very clean shop. I would recommend them. I will definitely have them take care of all my car needs.
I would most definitely recommend going to this shop! The communication is 100% on point. I even received a picture of what the issue was. The shop is clean and when I asked car questions they were answered in a way that could be understood by a person who doesn’t know much of the car language. Thank you for being an honest shop!
They helped a lot with finding where mice had been nesting in my car! I came in for an oil change, left with the the knowledge that mice were building nests in my cabin filter. They vacuumed the whole area and advised me of some tips to help deter the mice. Green Drop Garage has always been awesome, over delivering every time!
These guys are amazing!! I was driving around town with the loudest, craziest noise coming out of my car. I was in a hurry and popped into their shop. They helped me get the rock stuck under my car out in under 15 minutes and even changed a brake light! The two guys were so nice and helpful. Thank You Green Drop Garage.
Jake has helped me so much. I’m a single woman with no family in the state and am always nervous when bringing my car anywhere for repairs. Jake has helped guide me with fair pricing and unlimited support. If I could give him 10 stars I would. Thank you again Jake I’ll never go anywhere else!
Friendly and courteous service. Great location across the street from Stadium Fred Meyers. Clean and well lit work area and open waiting area where you can watch your car being repaired. First time there and I think I will become a regular.
The fellas working in this garage were knowledgeable, efficient, and courteous! I appreciated their insight and ended up signing up for their monthly membership. Very glad I decided to get my oil change, check up, & DEQ test through them.
These folks have been really great every time I've gone in. Their online system makes it easy to review their recommended work and approve (which is an issue I've had with other garages who give you a hand-written form then stare at you
Great mechanic. I've had trouble finding a quality mechanic that isn't in a wildly inconvenient location. Green Drop checked all the boxes - fast, honest, and reasonably priced. Will be coming here regularly.
Excellent service and a very convenient location. They didn't try to upsell anything. The mechanic did a great job informing me. My car is now running smooth. Thanks guys! I'll be back.
Was able to get winter tires mounted and balanced, as well as brakes serviced in under 24 hours during the busy winter season, I would take my vehicle here again.
Kyle helped me out so much at Green Drop. I liked the clear way he communicated, how efficient he was, and how thoughtfully he fixed my car! Highly recommend.
I have used Green Drop Garage since 2017 for all repairs and services of my Subaru cars. Personnel are very friendly, their work is prompt and good.
Green drop has always been great to me. It's handy and helpful to have the services they offer available to me at a reasonable cost. Check them out.
Made a same-day reservation to patch a tire with a nail in it. Dropped it off in the morning, picked it up in the afternoon. Great price. Nice guy.
Friendly staff, fast service, clean shop. There is still a small waiting area in the corner for 1 to 2 people to stay safe.
It was a great visit, and does a great job, they do handle they're business very professional
I subscribe to their maintenance membership for free oil changes and more.
The other green drops are much faster and more efficient then this one.
Kyle was very quick and fair with a fix I needed to have done.
Nice people. A little pricey but they do good work.
Tried to oversell us on a couple things
The best way to get your oil changed.
Quick and thorough. Great service.
Friendly and knowledgeable
Great as always !
