I went there to get my emissions tested. Fast service, very friendly. Everything you would want in an emissions testing center. They even have a nice little waiting room just for emissions where you can watch your car being tested. No one necessary paperwork. If you're in Wallingford, this is the place to go.

I’ve lived in CT for 6 years and was still taking my car back to my hometown in NYS for repairs because I couldn’t find a place I trusted. Nelson’s is AWESOME, though. Kayla was so easy to work with and the communication was great. She even stayed a bit late so I could still pick up my car after getting stuck in rush hour traffic. The prices were incredibly fair and the service overall was just the best. 15/10 would recommend. I will certainly be back for future service and repairs.

6/24/21 Easy and quick to do emissions. 20 bucks cash. Outdoor sitting area with a tent for shade while you wait. Can't speak to any of the other services they provide. Had PP stuff and chair and steering wheel covers for the tech. Seemed like it might be overkill at this point but appreciate that they had the supplies and were making the effort to do right by their employees.

Great place to get emissions done! There were two people ahead of me and it still only took 30 minutes. I appreciated the option to sit inside or outside to wait (beautiful day to sit outside!). Also the test was done with all safety precautions imaginable (masks, gloves, seat and steering wheel covers, windows open). It's still a bit uncomfortable to have a stranger in your car, so I really appreciated this. Thank you! I will be back when my car needs service.
