To our amazing customers — thank you for your patience during one of the busiest seasons we’ve ever experienced at Albertsons Engine Service.
First and foremost, this post is NOT meant to scare anyone away from bringing equipment to us. We truly appreciate every customer who supports our small business, and we are continuing to accept repairs and do everything we can to help our community.
We simply want to be honest and transparent about current turnaround times so customers know what to expect before dropping equipment off.
Right now we are receiving a high amount of pieces of equipment dropped off every single day, on top of the large amount already here waiting for service. With several small engine shops in our area closing over the last few years, we are doing our absolute best to help everyone who calls or walks through our doors.
At the moment, repair wait times are running approximately 3–4+ weeks before equipment can even be looked at. We completely understand how frustrating that is when the grass is growing fast and everyone needs their equipment running NOW.
Please know:
• We are not ignoring your machine
• We are not “holding” equipment on purpose
• We are working as fast as humanly possible every day
Currently, our shop is operating with a very small staff while still trying to keep up with overwhelming demand. Skilled small engine mechanics have become extremely hard to find, and trust us, we’ve been searching.
We truly appreciate every customer who continues to support us, recommend us, and remain patient while we work through this season. Your kindness means more than you know.
We promise we are here, we are working hard, and we are doing everything we can to keep South Jersey mowing, trimming, cutting, and running.
