Central Collision Center Opens Rapid Repair Center

Illinois-based Central Collision Center has opened Central Express in Oak Forest, Illinois. The new facility specializes in same day and 24-hour turnaround collision repair service for light to moderate size repairs.

The opening of Central Express signifies Central Collision Center’s progressive efforts to give consumers another alternative to have minor and moderate hits, dents, dings, and scratches repaired quickly with guaranteed quality. The repair facility incorporates lean production principles with a linear workflow and is equipped with state-of-the-art equipment. It is also one of the first repair facilities using strictly waterborne paint on all vehicles, making the facility environmentally friendly.

According to Michael Caruso, founder and CEO of Central Collision Centers, “We are taking a proactive approach to protecting the environment and want to be ahead of this industry transformation.”

Caruso explained his guarantee. “If Central Express confirms an estimate to be $1,500 or less, needing up to 12 hours of labor, the correct parts are available, and there is no frame or mechanical damage, Central Express will repair the vehicle the same day.”

Founded in 1981, with headquarters in Mokena, Illinois, Central Collision Centers operates several collision repair facilities in Illinois.
