Purcell Tire & Service in Salt Lake City, UT: Commercial & Consumer

The Purcell store at 1335 W 2100 S runs seventeen services, including mining fleet services, OTR services and state inspections. It is the Salt Lake City location for vehicle repair and for inspections, and the only one of the city's four listings offering either.

Which of the four Salt Lake City listings

The city has more Purcell locations than any other, and they do different jobs:

  • This store, 1335 W 2100 S. Vehicle repair, inspections, mining and OTR work, and the commercial list apart from roadside assistance.
  • Truck Tire Center, 2910 W 2100 S, (801) 907-9477. Fifteen services built around trucks and trailers, including 24-hour roadside assistance, which this store does not offer.
  • Retread plant, 3350 W 2100 S, (801) 907-9500. Casings only.
  • Distribution, 2910 W 2100 S, (801) 797-0960. Tire supply only.

The honest summary: for a unit that has stopped on the road, call the Truck Tire Center. For everything else on a vehicle, call here.

Mining work in the Salt Lake Valley

This is one of 13 Purcell locations running mining fleet services and one of two in Utah, alongside Orem.

A program here means the managed version rather than the one-off: the equipment list, scheduled inspection, change-outs planned around a maintenance window, repair while damage is still repairable, and casings pulled while they are still worth retreading. The plant that retreads them is a few blocks away on the same street.

Inspections

Three Purcell locations in Utah perform state inspections: this one, Ogden and Orem.

Requirements are set by the state and change from time to time, so confirm the current rule for your vehicle when you book. What is always worth doing beforehand is checking the obvious: every light, the wipers, the tires, the horn and mirrors, and any warning lamp on the dash.

Why roadside is handled elsewhere

This store does not list 24-hour roadside assistance, which surprises people, since it offers more services than any other Salt Lake City listing.

The reason is the division of labor across the city. Roadside work runs from the Truck Tire Center on (801) 907-9477, a location built around trucks and trailers and set up to send a technician out. This store covers everything that comes to it.

For a fleet, the practical arrangement is to hold both numbers: this one for planned work, inspections and anything on a car, the Truck Tire Center for a unit that has stopped. Put the second one where drivers can find it at night.
