We needed a hitch installed. The whole process from order to install was a couple of days. Very friendly and competitively priced.

5 Stars Unbelievable service from Valley Truck and Trailer! Even though they're primarily a repair shop, they went way out of their way to help me find the right parts. They were incredibly knowledgeable and even refused to charge me for some of the items. I can't recommend them highly enough for their expertise and generosity. read more

Travel trailer needed wheel bearing service. Called ahead, Eric and Brian very polite and helpful. Drove and dropped off travel trailer. It was ready earlier than estimated and lower cost.

I am very fortunate to take my trailer for repairs at Valley Truck and Trailer! My trailer was broken down with the drilling equipment on it. Eric calmly helped me out out of a difficult situation and came up with the best possible solution. He utilized his network of vendors, and took the time to understand our needs. In the end we choose the 7,000 lb axles and now it tows better than ever. read more

I needed someone to install a trailer hitch on my new electric car so I could get my bike rack on it. Shopped around online and found this place with tons and tons of experience mounting hitches. Drove over there and they were delightful. they drove me to a Starbucks nearby so I could wait comfortably while they put my hitch on and there happen to be a Manny Petty place next-door so I got a pedicure while I was waiting. They pick me up about 45 minutes to an hour later, and Phil, the guy at the front desk, had printed out all sorts of information for me about the hitch and the alarm when my bike rack was on there for backing up. Not only were they so customer oriented, but their price was better than any place else around. Highly recommend this place.!!! read more

As a construction business owner, when we have a piece of equipment down, we are under pressure to get it fixed and back on the jobsite. Eric and Phil were able to help us out when one of our trailers threw a spindle and needed to be replaced to make it usable. They had it swapped out and repaired within 4 hours and we were able to get back out on the job in order to meet our customers needs! We would recommend Valley for any of your trailer needs. Thanks guys! read more

This review is for my dad since he doesn't have yelp. Eric the owner helped me today. He was very honest with pricing, quick and experienced at his craft. Diagnosed the problem with my truck and was finished same day. I will return for any issues with my vehicles. read more

They helped me with an issue and were happy to answer all questions. Patient, good people. Recommended.

Installed Firestone suspension air bags- apart from the overpriced service, the bolts broke off after 6 months. This is literally what it looks like after I removed the tire. Can't trust them to remove or fix the air bags, so I'm doing it myself- 2015 F15. Definitely can't recommend. read more

It really seems customer service and fair pricing seem to be a dying trend in the age of Covid. But not with Valley Truck. Called to get a quote for an install I needed done, using a companies authorized installers. Got a quote and worked out a date. Smooth. No hassle at all. I called 3 other outfits before my install to price shop (I was always taught to get 3-4 quotes), it seemed the more reviews each place had the higher and higher their prices were. Comical at best for the last quote. Stuck with my initial gut and went with Valley. Couldn't be happier. Stand up guys, polite and fun to talk with. Not to mention all the nostalgia items around the shop that were awesome to look at. Highly recommend. read more

Your basic know what they are doing and calmly competent folks. Done two hitches for me and they did a great job both times. Second install went with blue tooth trailer brakes. Everything works fine read more

great service. they set up my brand new Ford Maverick to be towed behind my RV and installed a supplemental braking system. very happy with the work and Eric was super to work with. read more

The guys at Valley Truck went above and beyond to help me get a last-minute hitch installed on my SUV. Communication was great and they were super kind. The hitch is exactly how we wanted it installed. read more

The lock of the trunk was broken,Eric repaired it for free so nice and good heart. Appreciate

I had them replace all four spring hangers under my camper's frame, they did a great job and even left it up on the hoist so that I could inspect the work easily. Nice folks to deal with. Btw- they do have a useful selection of trailer tires on the premises :-) read more

I have worked with Eric for many years storing my RV and have him work on my vehicles. One day I walk into Eric's shop. Tell him what I am experiencing with my Suburban and I need to get it fixed. He said that he thinks it is front end suspension damage and would cost around $400.00. I said alright, go with it. I got a call from Valley Truck saying that my truck was done. He told me that my suspension was messed up and they fixed it and it would cost me 60 bucks He could have told me anything, I don't know he is a good dude. read more

Phil and his team were great. They know their stuff. Did a great install on my Rav 4 hybrid! Got the car and the next day they did the install so we could take it on vacation. Can't say enough about this shop! read more

My overall experience was great, the price are fair, The guys install side bar on my truck and I was happy with the results. read more

I would NEVER go back to this place! It was 3:30 today, and we called to see if Valley Truck had a part we needed, they said yes. We were coming from San Ramon so we said we will be there real close to 4 p.m. ,which is when they close. The guy said, not a problem I will stay open knowing you are going to come. We get there at 3:58. CLOSED! GATES SHUT! HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!! read more

I have been coming to Eric for awhile now. He has worked on my K2500 suburban, my civic and my 72' k5. Well today he worked on my integra. I had him install a hitch for my car so I can pull my seadoo. We ran into some minor problems with the hitch itself (manufacturing defect) but Eric was able to fix it and get it on perfectly. He was a little busy today. He and a mechanic were the only ones there, but they were able to help everyone. read more

I went in to get my tires that I got for the Ford Ranger rotated. Eric wasn't there, but when it was done, the nice lady with the long hair asked me whether I bought the tires there, I said yes, and she said no charge. I knew that, and I know other places offer that, too, the free rotation, after purchase, but they check if you indeed got the tires there; she didn't. I appreciate that, but they could've checked and found out that I did buy them there. Anyway, good service as usual, and the mechanic, who has been with them over twenty years, she said, looks more like an accountant or professor, clean cut, with glasses. He also filled a dolly tire that went flat for free. read more

At one time this place used to be my go to place. NO MORE! Service has fallen. Used to work with Eric but now some younger kid (son?) has some things to learn about customer service !!! After spending over $5000 on my truck there in the past I wish I went elsewhere and now I will! read more

I'm writing this review and giving ZERO stars. my gf and I came in because we had an apt for a rental truck. The acne ridden little cowboy that works there [ assuming it's the owner's son] was extremely rude the whole time. He acted like he was too good for our time, extremely unwelcoming, and rude to my gf in front of me. Avoid this place at all cost. read more

Valley truck gets my vote for a first class operation! Eric the owner is very knowledgeable and a very fair business man. 5 stars is hard goal to hit, but when a business come through with SUPERB customer service... that is when you get my vote! Eric came through for me and I will recommend him to my friends and associates. Keep up the good work guys! Castro Valley appreciates it! read more

I have a food truck, and this place is my commissary. My truck is really old, and with that come constant little things that need to be fixed, or I can't operate. Eric and his team are always so helpful, and fair. They really take good care of us. And they have propane services too! read more

The owner Eric is a great guy. He's honest and will give you a good deals. So if u need any parts, service for your truck or car just call him, they also have truck rentals (uhaul). He's open 7 days, check it out. read more

This is the first time I have come to Valley Truck. I had them install new air bags (air lifts) under my Tacoma truck. I spent half a day calling all over town trying to find a local place that knew how to install them. Valley Truck was the only place I called that said they would install them. It turned out that my truck needed and unusually small size that they had to special order. The got them over night and expedited the installation as I was waiting there. They are VERY down to earth friendly helpful people and have wonderful customer service. As a woman I appreciate that in dealing with any auto repair service. I would not hesitate to recommend them. NOTE: Their actual address is NOT as stated above on YELP. It is 20630 John Drive, Castro Valley (less than 1/4 mile from the address listed for them on yelp). This maybe why one of the reviews said they were "CLOSED" when they got there. read more

This is the first review I've ever posted on Yelp but felt compelled to do so because of the great experiences I had at Valley Truck. I have taken several projects to Valley and have received great service and results. And always at a fair price. Valley setup my Ford truck for 5th wheel towing including hitch install, shocks, and air bags. Later I went back and they transferred and setup the hitch in my Chevy. Eric and the entire staff have been extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and especialy patient with all my projects. Again, just a great experience knowing these projects are getting done correctly for a fair price. It is like working with trusted friends. read more

I have been to different mechanics in the east bay, hands down, Eric and the guys at Valley truck are the best around. Honest and reliable. Great work. Always busy but always ready to help. Eric is always looking out for his customers best interest! That's huge! -brian read more

If I could give negative stars I would. Do NOT give them your business - unless you want to receive extremely poor customer service and no support of their product once they have your money. We've been burned twice now by them - lesson learned. Hope that this post will spare you. read more

I rented a flat bed car trailer, they had an employee hook it up to my truck and then when we loaded the car the trailer came unhook due to being poorly hooked up!!! It damaged my tail gate and bumper!!!!! When I returned the trailer I made them aware of the problem instead of apologizing they basically blamed me!!! Terrible customer service!!! So if you rent anything from this place it's at your own risk because they don't guarantee or stand behind their work or employee's skills!!!!!!! read more
