IMPORTANT - As of 6/6/2017 we have replaced our old lift with a new one, and some features are different. For that reason, anyone who wants to use the lift needs to be re-trained. We’ll be holding classes as often as possible, check our Eventbrite page to sign up. This is FREE for everyone who has previously been trained on the old lift. If you try to use the lift prior to being trained, you will be disappointed, and we will be unsympathetic.
Reserving the lift area to work on your vehicle without using the lift itself is fine.
Thanks!
Reservations are made in blocks of 1 hour each. The automotive PC has tools for estimating the length of time required for certain jobs. Reserve 150% of the time you expect to need for a job. For large jobs that may require a day or more of uninterrupted lift time, please contact the RM before scheduling.
Scheduling of use can be found on the Member Site.
IMPORTANT - As of 6/19/2026 Due to the High demand for the access of the lift, it is now mandatory to make a reservation. You can have anything on the title, as long as you have all of the following:
[name],[vehicle make and model], [brief job description].
If you're planning on working 2 vehicles, please indicate by makes only.
[name] [make 1, make 2] [brief work description]
It doesn't have to be in that order, but having this information will help the resource managers get caught up to speed in the event of a bailout request from the impending repair failure and help us understand what you were trying to achieve in the event of an emergency. Failure schedule in that format may result having your reservation canceled. Member may be asked further information in regards to inproportinate work to time ratio. This information will also help us with the demographics.
I.E 7 hours, [name][make model][oil change]. That will recieve an audit.
Anything above 8 hours requires RM approval.
Thanks!
