Profitable Truck Repair Business For Sale

Lake Orion, Michigan, US
Asking Price:
$3,499,999 Furniture / Fixtures and Inventory / Stock included
Sales Revenue:
$1,504,578
Cash Flow:
$215,061

THE BUSINESS
Founded in 2011, this profitable, owner-operated heavy truck repair and fleet service business has spent more than 15 years earning the trust of commercial fleet customers in Lake Orion, Michigan. The Company operates out of a fully-equipped 9,210 sq ft facility with six (6) service bays, including TWO dedicated crane service bays — a capability very few independent shops in the region can match.

This business is anchored by recurring revenue from its fleet customer base which creates steady cash flow.

The business is genuinely one-stop: truck and trailer diagnostics, preventative maintenance, DOT inspections, drivetrain and differential service, alignment (on an in-house Hunter alignment machine), welding and fabrication, hydraulic hose fabrication (Gates crimper on-site), crane truck service. Fleet managers return because they can solve every problem in one place — with technicians who actually know diesel.

The owners will sell the business separate from the building.

THE NUMBERS

  • 3-year average gross revenue: $1,504,578
  • 3-year average Seller's Discretionary Earnings (SDE): $213,712
  • 2025 SDE: $240,664 (+30% YoY)
  • Asking: $753,000 (3.5x 3-yr avg SDE + $5,000 inventory)
  • Includes $60,000+ of shop tools, diagnostic equipment, welders, and a fork truck


WHY IT STANDS OUT

  • 15+ year operating history; diversified B2B fleet customer base
  • Dedicated crane service bays (Bays 4 & 5) — hard and expensive to replicate
  • Hunter alignment, 100-ton pneumatic press, Lincoln & Millermatic welders, plasma cutter, Snap-On Solus scan tool, 10 major engine diagnostic programs on-site
  • Trained diesel technician team in place — an increasingly scarce asset industry-wide
  • SBA 7(a) pre-qualifiable at asking price; seller will consider a carry-back note for qualified buyers
  • Owner retiring; 30 days of paid transition training + post-close paid consulting

GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES
Formalizing fleet maintenance agreements with top accounts • Adding a second shift to increase bay utilization • Selling annual DOT inspection packages • Expanding mobile/field service at premium pricing • Extending into light-duty fleet (box trucks, vans, step vans) • Bundled tire and alignment packages leveraging the Hunter rack • Local SEO, Google Business optimization, and fleet-manager outreach

TRANSACTION
Asset Sale structure. Cash, A/R, and A/P retained by seller. Inventory target at closing: $5,000. Standard non-compete and training/transition package included. Full data room released post-NDA.

Business Operation

Management type:
This business is owner operated.
Expansion Potential:

Multiple untapped growth vectors: (1) Formalize fleet maintenance agreements with top accounts; (2) Add a second shift to increase bay utilization; (3) Sell annual DOT inspection packages; (4) Expand mobile/field service at premium pricing; (5) Extend into light-duty fleet (box trucks, vans, step vans); (6) Bundled tire + alignment packages leveraging the Hunter rack; (7) Local SEO, Google Business, and fleet-manager outreach. The current owner grew the business through relationships — sales and marketing are essentially untapped.

Competition / Market:

Heavy-truck repair service capacity in the GM Orion corridor is chronically constrained. Major national operators (Penske, Ryder) run at over-capacity and outsource overflow Class-8 service. Competing independent crane-served shops are rare — the 7.5-ton crane configuration cannot be permitted and built in under 12 months today, creating a durable competitive moat.

Reasons for selling:

Retirement after 15 years of successful ownership. Owner is committed to a smooth transition with 30 days of buyer paid training and post-close paid consulting.

Trading hours:

Monday-Friday regular business hours

Years established:
2011

Other Information

Support & training:

30 days of buyer paid training. Post-training paid consulting available from the owner to ensure continuity of operations and customer relationships.
