Wish I could rate them a 10.0. Very nice people and so accommodating. My vehicle ended up needing a jump start after the inspection due to dead battery and they did that too!This is absolutely the place to go for an inspection.

Real glad I went here for our state vehicle inspection. I can trust these guys. Last month, I went to Valvoline on 17th Street for an inspection on our other car. They broke the car's computer, and the car began to stall while driving, immediately after they touched it. It took a week to fix it, and cost me over $200. Don't go there for anything. Only go to Strickland's for your inspection. Too bad they don't do oil changes.

The service bays are kinda hidden in between an army/ navy store and an antiquity shop down a single in/out drive. I was coming of course for a vehicle inspection to qualify to renew my dmv registration on my corolla. Brooks helped me and was very calm and friendly even when I had to make several trips back to correct a couple of issues. Thanks brooks

So happy this place was recommended to us. BEST customer service I have received in a very long time. The owner and his son are so personable. It was quick and no appointment was needed. Was in and out in 20 minutes. Will get all of our vehicles inspected here.

I always have a pleasant experience here. My uncle was the person who told me to go to them and I haven't been anywhere else since! Great people, easy going and kind and even if they are busy it still doesn't take long at all.

These men were very helpful. The man inspecting my car was very educational, telling me what he was doing whilst inspecting my car, you know as a woman. . . I'll speak for myself, I dont know anything about a car cept how to drive it. Felt like I could inspect a car, myself, after leaving him, but I'll let him do it lol. It was quick and I learn several new things.

Absolutely wonderful and welcoming people! I will never take my car anywhere else to get inspected. If you give these people a hard time or if you are rude to them, you are literal garbage. They are some of the kindest people I've ever met.

So welcoming. I only waited about 10 mins and they kept me in the loop every step of the way. Starting from the wait time to what and how they do things. I will definitely be back and I'll be sending them more business.

They are the best car inspection business in Wilmington. Bar none. Family owned with warm welcome every time my family goes there. One of the best businesses in Wilmington frankly. 5 out of 5 every time we go there. Plus the army store out front have the coolest knifes army gear you can ask for.

This is the best place to get a vehicle inspection!! Your short wait will be so pleasant in rocking chairs in the firefighter memorabilia filled waiting room. The people are so nice there too. Why go anywhere else?

You would be nuts to take your vehicle anywhere else. They looked over my vehicle very carefully and pointed out several maintenance items that I should consider taking care of. These weren't even inspection items, they just wanted me to know about them.
