The Pickering Brothers

Brandon Pickering (Left) & Trent Pickering (Right) Meet the owners of Pickering’s Auto Service, Brandon and Trent Pickering. The brothers recently took full ownership of this family business January 1, 2021 with Brandon in control of the Finances and Trent overseeing the operations. This truly is nothing new to them as they have been running all of the day to day operations for the past few years allowing their father Randy Pickering to transition into semi-retirement smoothly. Brandon has been on staff full time since 2007 and Trent since 2009 but they grew up in the shop from the time they were little boys. From playing with wheel weights and scrap parts out back as kids, to the teenage summer job donig property maintenance, oil changes, tires etc.., the boys have been around the shop their whole life. They are now ready to take the family business to the next level as the 5th generation in the automotive industry.

ASE Certifications 

Automotive Service of Excellence or ASE is an independent non-profit organization that has worked to improve the quality of vehicle repair and service by testing and certifying automotive professionals since 1972.

ASE | Pickering's Auto Service

ASE certifies automotive technicians and service professionals, not the auto shops. They serve as a way to certify the automotive technician professional so they can offer tangible proof of their technical knowledge. ASE Certification testing means peace of mind for auto service managers and customers. The tests are challenging, and to remain ASE certified, professionals must retest every five years to keep up with the ever-advancing automotive technology. Learn more about ASE here and the certification levels here.
