Excellent service, I had a stuck lock on a roof box and Brandon quickly was able to solve it and open it up. Also, it is very helpful in finding replacement parts. Nice store lots of selection. Look forward to fulfilling my future needs for accessories. read more

These people are experts at any kind of rack system. Great work on installation if you need that. I did appreciate the practical advice on my specific needs. read more

Rack N Road - Seattle - Sporting Goods Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I had gone to Rack N Road a few years ago to get a roof rack installed on my car. My car is older (2013) and hadn't been designed for a roof rack, so they team at Rack N Road had to drill and mount the Thule rack on my car. I was very happy with the workmanship and the rack, and have used it ever since. Last week I decided to get another kayak carrier attached to the rack, since I now have two kayaks. Ferrying them back and forth with one carrier was just too much of a hassle! I went by Rack N Road again, without an appointment, hoping they'd have the right parts and could put one on. It was definitely yes and yes! In less than half-an-hour I not only had purchased the same carrier I already had on my car but the staff at Rack N Road had it installed too! Less than 30 mins after that I was on my way to the lake with both boats loaded! What incredible service!! read more

The staff here were extremely helpful. Our old rack was damaged beyond repair, and I needed to get the key cores swapped into a new rack. They helped me be able to keep using the keys and cores that I had built my setup around. Amazing service A+ and the shop is exactly what you'd want from a rack and hitch store. read more

A Yakima roof rack was super discounted price which I found on Yakima's website and it suggested to buy it here. I drove down here to purchase it and the original person who helped me was great and even said they would honor that price. His boss got involved and said they couldn't match even though it was on Yakima's website suggesting this place to purchase. Real customer service would honor the price and then go after the manufacturer to get the portion of money you lost. Watch out for false advertisement! read more

I've been a long term customer. Always a pleasure dealing with the staff. And their work is top class. Never rushed and the costs are reasonable. You can trust them. read more

Ned was really helpful and knowledgeable, even made a suggestion for safely installing our kayak racks! Highly recommend!!

Great customer service. Went in for a replacement part for an older existing ski rack. They had pre-used ones in stock, and gave the parts to me free!! Nice surprise. I'll be back at this store when I do need a new rack or ski carrier. read more

I had a very good experience with Rack N Road (Green Lake store on Aurora). I went there to ask for advice on a smart cap I was buying used. Even though they were not getting a sale out of it they were very helpful and generous with their advice. Later I had them wire up the brake-lights on the unit and they were able to get that done quickly and efficiently. I will use them in future if I have need for new products or services. read more

The worst customer service I have ever experienced. I ordered a roof rack in June for a trip scheduled in September. I paid in full against my better judgement. After being told repeatedly that the parts were on the way, I scheduled installation when told they had arrived. I was subsequently told that one part had not actually arrived, which was repeated the next two times I inquired, weeks apart. Today, I went off on them when told (again) that they were missing a part. They then called me back to say that upon further review, the part had magically arrived. Please. Do yourselves a favor and find another vendor. These people have no clue. read more

I'm so happy this Rack N Road is still in Seattle. I've been here so many times over the years--bike rack, ski rack, roof box, etc. Each time, the staff was knowledgeable about their products, generous with their time, and just all around awesome. They've also helped me with free replacement parts several times, and solved every rack problem I've ever had over the years. I recently went to buy a bike rack, thinking I knew which one I was going to buy based on internet research. They threw the rack in question onto my car, and we discovered it wouldn't fit my hitch receiver! So much for that plan... Undeterred, they brought out several other racks--including off the their own car--until we found one that worked. They workshopped different possible solutions given my needs, and were super patient the whole time. Some people ask me why they would go to a retailer instead of finding a deal for a rack online. My recent experience is the perfect example why I continue to go to Rack N Road--great service, and saved me a bunch of time, energy, and money in the long run. read more

Having limited knowledge of racks and boxes, I went into Rack N Road with more questions than knowledge. They were awesome! They helped me find the box that was right and made sure we had a competitive price and helped install and walk me through installation. Initially I was comparing racks in stores to marketplace, but our sales guy Brandon was fantastic that they converted me to a buyer with pricing that rivaled 2nd hand. Save the heartache and give them a shot! read more

I only have awesome things to say about this store. I recently had an issue with my Yakima Exo top shelf. They were able to figure it out and were so accommodating! I was missing an essential part and they just gave it to me! I then was going to buy swing arms for my cargo box that had broken. Because Thule has a lifetime warranty, he also gave me the parts for free (even though I bought from REI). read more

I drove up from Las Vegas with 29er e-bike in the back of my Ford Explorer. That is crazy talk I tell you. I called the store to check the inventory for the rack I wanted. They put my name on it. Alan promptly got the rack for me, rang me up, and out the door I went. I am very pleased with my Hollywood bike rack. read more

Awesome selection, awesome customer service. Get there early in the day or risk standing in line. Parking can be a beast, but it's Seattle, so you should be used to that by now. We came in for a roof cargo box for my SUV and they had several to choose from; there was no pressure or upselling, just straight facts and recommendations. Installation was super quick and the Rack N Road team was great about explaining how to remove and re-install. They answered my many many questions and were extremely knowledgeable. read more

-Flat tire, and I've lost the keys to my Yakima rear/spare tire mounted bike rack. I'm screwed. A can of fix-a-flat from a nearby hardware store gets me home, but now what am I going to do about getting the rack off for future needs? TIM TO THE RESCUE! He could not have been more helpful. His customer service demeanor was prompt and professional. In no time at all, we located a matching replacement key, and a whopping 10 minutes later (!) I was on my way. THAT'S the way to run a business. Thank you Tim and Rack N Road! read more

I went to have my bike rack repaired since the locks weren't working. They replaced 2 arms, locks, cores and keys. It seems that Al knows just about everything about bike racks. I walked in without an appointment. He helped me and did all of that at no charge. He also ordered me a sleeve for carbon fibre bike. I was charged for that, but considering all that hat done for me that is way more than fair! I won't go anywhere else in the future GREAT store! read more

Best service ever! The Seattle staff went above and beyond to help me with a wiring issue in my trailer connection. I did not have an appointment, yet they got my issue fixed and me back on the road and the pricing was so, so reasonable. Do not hesitate to shop and do business with these guys. Thank you, Rack N Road ! read more

These guys could not have been more helpful. I had them do warranty work on my Yakima roofbox & after quickly doing it (& being told I'd be claiming back the cost), they comp'd me the cost! Old fashioned fantastic customer service; I'll definitely be returning. read more

I absolutely love this vehicle rack shop and have had multiple amazing 5-star experiences with their service. Most recently, I dropped by with my Thule cargo box rack (that I had purchased there 7 years ago) to have the locks looked at. The recent cold temperature had been causing issues, including one of the locks breaking when I tried to open it yesterday up at the Summit. Upon arrival, Josh & Ned immediately began assessing the damaged locks and informed me that the locks had a lifetime warranty and would submit a claim on my behalf to get them fixed free of charge. Without wasting any time, Ned was taking pictures of the Thule cargo box with locks and was on the phone with the Thule representative to secure me a warranty replacement. As always, I was very pleased with the service I received at Rack N Road. Thank you! read more

Great experience Great customer service friendly an expert. They installed racks for both of my truck. Very happy. read more

Came in looking to see if they possibly had the nuts for a used roof rack system we had bought off someone in the Seattle area. The staff were super helpful in showing us how we could order the parts from the website and then ended up finding us a set of them in the back. Will be recommending this place all our friends. read more

The Yakima lock fails as I am loading for a big weekend. These guys are so great that they fix it quickly and no charge.

We have order two items from this store. They have the best products and excellent customer service. We bought a Thule roof rack which we love for our ski trips and camping. Yesterday I came in to have them install a trailer hitch and my husband ordered a brand new Quat bike rack that they put together for us. Seamless experience. They walked me through how to use the bike rack and even gave me free fender straps for my E bike. Super friendly people here and I trust their quality. read more

I don't usually write reviews but y'all are awesome! I bought a roof rack from my friend and it had a few small parts missing, after stressing all morning we spent about 10 seconds inside before someone was helping us and handing us a whole new clamp and saving the day!! Thank you!! read more

Rack N Road saved our families vacation! I have a Thule roof top box and the night before a two day road trip, I found out that one of the pieces of hardware that secures it to the roof was broken. I called Rack N Road and they had one in stock. Not only did they stay a few minutes after hours, they gave me a replacement for free. I cannot express how amazing these people are for helping a family in need. I will always turn to Rack N Road for my next purchase and will happily recommend to my friends and family. Thank you Rack N Road! read more

Sold used gear ,offered reasonable price Ordered and installed new unit, on schedule Alan Holmberg was super pleasant and helpful read more

Best customer service and quality. These guys get you set up and ready for the adventures same day. Don't go anywhere else.

I purchased a hitch through Rack N Road, and had them install it to my vehicle. The team helped me quickly gain an understand of which product I needed, with low-stress and work on my part. Some confusion occurred in our transaction. Once we both realized the confusion, Rack N Road quickly and professionally resolved the issue. Additionally, they provided some *extra customer services* to help give me a positive feeling about the experience. It's not always about a transaction completing without confusion/error -- I expect these things to happen in Everyday Life. What's more important to me is how it gets resolved! Rack N Road resolved the confusion quickly and professionally -- they also went "the extra mile" to make me happy! Thanks Team! Would visit again! read more

These guys SAVED us. We had a hitch installed at another place, and we only found out the day we were supposed to leave on a three-week trip that the job was done incorrectly. The team at Rack N Road squeezed us in the same day and had us on the road in a matter of hours. They went above and beyond, were accommodating and kind, and had a great attitude. This is our go-to shop from now on! read more

I had placed an order over the phone with Alan Holm for a Yakima Overhaul HD, Tacoma track kit, and 60'' HD Bars, he handled it quickly. I came in the following week to pick it up, and he helped me order the Basline Towers, base clips, and jet stream bars for the cab of the truck. Alan has incredible patience and am happy to have him manage my order. Likely to call back for accessories just cause of his customer service. ​ read more

These guys do everything right. Even when my car dealer could not figure out what was going on these guys took the time to check out my brake control system and make it right All my sport racks are from them and they always take the time to provide excellent customer service read more

After traveling through several states, we realized our car top storage box latches were loose and difficult to operate. Based on past good experiences with Rack n Road stores, we decided to visit the Seattle location. All three employees that we interacted with were professional in all respects. They honored our request to repair the box. The problem was quickly diagnosed and by the time we came back from a walk, the repair was complete--new hardware connectors and lubrication of the moving parts. They were fast, efficient and affordable. It works great! read more

Super helpful staff. Didn't buy anything from them yet but they spent the time to look at my stuck rack and provided advice for removal when ready. read more

The staff was extremely helpful and informative. As the rack was for my wife's car, she had questions which were always answered. We decided getting a rail system and rack installed. The staff was quick and actually completed early. The staff called. Upon pick up, the installer walked us through how the racks worked. Overall, fabulous service and I will recommend them in the future. read more
