Adjusters, Body Shops Busy With Winter Fender Benders

A slow Winter is starting to ramp up at local body shops who are taking in dozens of damaged cars. "Right now we’re taking in between 50 and 60 a week. This week things are picking up for sure," Don Miller Body Shop Manager Byron Kershaw says. Most body shops saw an up tick in business last November with the early Winter snowfall. That unusual rush started to slow down in December with milder temps and little to no snowfall. Now, in the first few days of January, several body shops have waiting lists for service.
