A Look Back: The History Of UWrenchIt!

Do you ever have a moment where you suddenly think to yourself, “how did I get this far”? We’ll that’s exactly how we’re feeling. Someone in our store pointed out that we’ve been in the community for over 43 YEARS. That’s a long time, and it’s amazing to look back and see where we were then and who we are today! As a business that’s been in the community for so long, we feel it’s our duty to “tell our story” if you will. So here’s where we came from and where we are now!

When did UWrenchIt open?

UWrenchIt has existed by name for the past 6 or so years; however, we have been a part of this great Norcross community since 1973! During those years we were known as R&R Auto Parts.

What was our purpose? 

Our main premise was to provide for all of the hard working families in our area that may not want to/cannot buy new parts.  We wanted to offer quality parts for a great and accessible price to everyone.  I think everyone can remember a time or two they were charged to the moon for something as simple as an oil change!

What’s our mission statement? 

Who are we? We are easy to do business with. We have the best people. We have been a part of this community for 45 years.  We strive to be YOUR number 1 used auto parts dealer in Gwinnett County!  We want to have the best employees that are well trained to provide the greatest and most accurate service every time. Having been here for 45 years, we hope to show that we are dedicated to our customers and our community and will continue to be.

What have we accomplished over the years? 

We have gone through many renovations and names, but our core values have not changed.  We have always been a staple in the Norcross automotive community and no one can say they haven’t seen “Charlie the Rat” waving at them from the roadside!  The vast number of dedicated customers we have is such an awesome thing to see and their business, along with our newer customers, makes us strive to be better everyday!

How can you benefit from UWrenchIt? 

The benefits abound here at U Wrench It!  We can help you find that tricky part you need, watch out for a car that has been eluding you for months, even help you locate another yard if we do not have the parts you need.  Our number one goal is customer service and satisfaction.  Being the best is just a plus!

We’ve loved serving you and our community for so many years, and if you haven’t stopped by already, we hope we see you soon. Thank you for being such great supporters over the years and shaping us into who we are today!
