Why this page is specific to you
What California callers actually ring about
Every call answered while the whole crew stays on the vehicles. That flow runs for every California location you add, without rebuilding it per city.
Where you're covered in CA
Run Los Angeles, San Diego, San Jose and San Francisco from a single dashboard — separate local numbers and hours per city, one bill at the end of the month.
Local codes, not a call centre
213, 310, 323, 424, 562, 626, 747, 818, 619 and 858 and 6 more codes are all available as local California numbers — and porting or forwarding an existing line takes minutes, so auto repair shops keep the number customers already know.
After hours in CA
Everything clock-driven — opening hours, reminder sends, outbound windows — follows Pacific time, so a late CA caller gets your after-hours flow rather than a voicemail beep.
Intake, not advice
The Bureau of Automotive Repair (California Department of Consumer Affairs) governs auto repair shops in California. The agent books, qualifies and routes; anything that needs a licence goes to your staff.
Numbers & carriers
US local numbers can be provisioned self-serve through supported carriers, and toll-free numbers are also available. Carrier rules may require business verification for some number types, and A2P registration applies to business text messaging campaigns.
