In response to a significant reduction in demand for self-service DIY parts, and increased interest in our more convenient off the shelf parts service, we have after over 90 years decided to close the DIY yard at the Poole site. Saturday 29th September will be the last day of opening.
After so many years this will be a very sad day for us but also for the genuine 'DIYers'. Predominantly DIY has always been made up of older vehicles >10 years. We will continue to expand our very successful online business which now accounts for over 90% of our annual part sales - www.trents.co.uk/car-parts - and over time we will introduce older parts available to purchase from your phone, tablet or computer saving you the customer valuable time.
Finally, with so many cherished memories over the years helping many generations we would love for you to share your stories and experiences of past visits on our Facebook Page. If you have any questions we will be more than happy to assist.
Please note: Our front counter at Poole will remain open and continue to offer off the shelf parts, advice & pre-orders. No other CTL site is affected.
