Norwood & Asphodel-Norwood
Work truck and fleet service for Norwood and Asphodel-Norwood businesses
Roughly 25 minutes west of Norwood along Highway 7
Norwood and the surrounding Asphodel-Norwood township run on working vehicles: contractor pickups, service vans, farm half-tons and equipment haulers that move gravel, tools and livestock down Highway 7 and the concession roads every day. When one of them is off the road, someone is not earning.
That changes how the work should be planned. A loaded three-quarter-ton doing 200 km a day on rural roads does not follow the same service interval as a commuter car, and the failures are different too: leaf spring and u-bolt corrosion, wheel bearings loaded by trailer tongue weight, brake wear front-biased by heavy loads, and driveline vibration from gravel-road use.
4 Aces Auto Center is roughly twenty-five minutes west along Highway 7 at 485 Parkhill Rd E, and we schedule township customers so they are not left short a working vehicle mid-week. That usually means booking the vehicle for the quiet end of your week, ordering parts before it arrives, and calling you with the findings before anything beyond the agreed work happens.
What this work covers
- Scheduled maintenance programmes built around your duty cycle rather than a generic mileage sticker
- Brake, suspension, steering and driveline repair on half-ton through one-ton pickups and service vans
- Ontario Safety Standards Certificate inspections for vehicle transfers and plate renewals
- Pre-season inspections before spring and fall work peaks, so failures happen on our schedule and not yours
- Tyre, alignment and load-rating advice for vehicles that carry weight every day
- One record per vehicle so you can see cost per unit rather than a pile of invoices

What Norwood customers ask about this work
- How many vehicles do I need before it counts as a fleet?
- Two. If you run a couple of trucks for a trade or a farm we will set them up on a schedule the same way we do for a ten-vehicle operation. There is no minimum and no contract.
- Can you keep my trucks on the road during the busy season?
- That is the point of scheduling. We book Norwood work vehicles for planned service in the shoulder seasons and hold slots for the ones we know will need brakes or tyres before the next peak. Call (705) 748-4223 and we will build the calendar with you.
- Do you do annual inspections for commercial plates?
- We are a licensed Motor Vehicle Inspection Station and issue Ontario Safety Standards Certificates for light commercial vehicles. Heavy commercial annual inspections under the CVOR programme are a different class of facility — tell us the plate and gross weight and we will confirm whether it fits here before you drive in.
- Will you invoice the business rather than the driver?
- Yes. We bill the business, keep a record per vehicle and unit number, and can summarise what each vehicle has cost you over the year when you need it for planning.
- Do you work on diesels?
- We service light-duty diesel pickups for maintenance, brakes, suspension, electrical and general repair. For major engine internals or emissions-system rebuilds on heavy diesels we will point you to a specialist rather than learn on your truck.

“I have been very pleased with the service I have received at 4 Aces Automotive Centre. They have solved problems that other facilities were not able to do. The pricing seems fair—certainly comparable to other centres. And they seem very friendly, knowledgable, efficient, and skilled. Once, when they had my car up on the hoist—performing a repair— they detected an additional—and serious—problem. Rather than just telling me what they had found, they took me out into the garage to show me the issue and suggested that I have an auto body expert look at the problem to determine if it could be safely resolved before I had 4 Aces proceed with some additional repairs. I trust their work and they seem to genuinely care about the safety of my vehicle.”
