About
We were incorporated in 1958 as T&W Contractors, Inc. by partners Claude Tozier II and Dr. Lawrence Willett (T & W). Initially operating as a trucking and an earthing company, Claude bought Willett’s share of the business not long after it was formed.
Claude operated a fleet of 11 trucks until the late 1960s when he bought land on Elm Street in Newport and built a new garage. Originally, the garage was used to maintain company trucks. Over time, the garage became the “go to” place for truck repairs.
In 1971 the company no longer owned a fleet of trucks, and since then, the garage has been servicing the public. In addition to the repair shop, T&W had a towing operation from the mid-70’s through 2024.
Over the decades our family business has transitioned from one generation to another. With dedicated staff members and hard work, our small-town repair shop has continued to carry on the tradition of honest and professional repairs.
At T&W Garage we are committed to providing the best automotive repair, truck repair and fleet maintenance services for our customers while simultaneously fostering a healthy work environment for our valued employees.
We look forward to serving our community for generations to come!
