Hitch King

Great place, excellent customer service and really nice guys. I will drive out of my way to come back here again.

Traveled from afar and sat in NYC traffic both way, was definitely worth it! Adam, the hitch king certainly knew what he was doing. Fixed the rattling noise and the hitch issue. Thank you guys!

I have used hitch king before. I traveled from Peekskill to Queens to get them to install my hitch. They are quick, efficient, pleasant and I would recommend them to anyone who needs a hitch installed on their car

I’ve used these guys 4x in the last 10 years! They are great! I’ll always go here before uhaul. Check the trailers or trucks for in-​discrepancies usual to work force wear. Not a big deal but the dome lights in the trailer didn’t work.
I’ve rented a truck, Van & 2 trailers.
They are professional & friendly. Most of the time cheaper than uhaul or other bigger companies. But for the service you get I don’t mind the extra bucks if any.
I had bought the wrong size tow hook & they loaned me the correct size needed for the trailer on the house.
They charged me a flat rate, no hidden fees, no bs rates.
Very upfront and honest. Great Customer service. One of the guys working the lot washed my car w/​o being asked, so when I came out the office my truck was shining and ready for the trailer.

I brought my Mazda CX-​7 today to have a hitch installed and I could write a long winded review, but I can sum it up in a few succinct words: A+ for customer service, A+ for pricing, and most of all A+ for workmanship. Thanks again for being so accommodating with my schedule.

I called and spoke with Adam at almost 3pm on a Saturday afternoon. He went over some options and answered every question I had about hitch options, and being interested, I asked when it could be done. He checked his stock and said he had what I wanted, and if I could get there, he would fit me in. I got there, they moved a few vehicles (busy truck rental and snowplow services in addition to hitches) and set my vehicle up. You can just tell they know what they are doing.
Sure enough, just 40 minutes after I arrived, I drove away with a great hitch and proper wiring harness for my car, with more good options for future bike rack and possibly a cargo carrier too.
I am a stubborn diy’er and had researched buying and installing, but would have been crazy going that route, now seeing price, the install they did, and final outcome.
Never met them before today but they have earned my business, thanks.

Writing today to give recognition to excellent customer service and outstanding work. If you own a plow truck and you live in the tri-​state area look no further, Hitch King is at your service. Ask for Adam, he is a plow guru. He has saved my back side many times. Adam and his team have just recently performed a full service on my plow truck; including a new cutting blade, new hydraulic hoses, elbows and fresh fluid. They removed the worn factory bump stops and installed some timbrens (they help prevent the truck from bottoming out under the weight of the plow.) Prior to the timbrens the truck would literally slam into the ground on bumps and dips in the road; but after installation, the truck hasn’t slammed once and is even higher than before. Big thanks to Adam and the team at Hitch King.

These guys are *always* busy but never too busy to help.
They installed a hitch and wire harness for my Mobility lift some years ago on my SUV. Then I had the lift shipped directly to them and they assembled and installed it for me. (Above and beyond the call of duty!) Then, when it was time to replace my vehicle, they installed a new hitch and harness, and moved the lift to the new vehicle. Everything was done in a very agreeable time and at a very fair price.
Also, over the course of the past several years, I rented cargo vans for a day or three at a time. Never any problem with the equipment, and, again, at very fair prices.
I’ve even stopped in for a quick question about a repair on the electrical connection inside the lift mechanism (not related to the installation,) and Adam walked me through it, showing me how easy it would be to do it myself. He could have told me to make an appointment and made some money on the job. Instead, he stopped what he was doing and spent a good 20 minutes with me. To me, that speaks volumes about how he sees his customers.
Rob spent about a half an hour with me one day, brainstorming about my requirements for a utility trailer. He was more interested in the engineering of the thing than making the sale. I know because he said things like, «if we don’t build this for you, make sure the fabricator does… [this or that].»
Two more things I’d like to say: first, contrary to an earlier review, the parking in the area sucks, but that’s life in the big city.
Secondly, I always prefer to give my business to a local business owner than a conglomerate. These guys own and run their shop. They know what they’re talking about. You won’t be dealing with an entry-​level worker who’s trying to learn the business.
Hitch King has my business.

Although I was only able to give them ~20 mins notice before I stopped by, Adam and the team were able to make it happen. I brought my own hitch in and was in and out in about an hour and 30 mins. The entire process was pleasant and professional. During the install, Adam noticed my brake lights were due for replacement, one was already out. Before putting the rear assembly back together, Adam shuttled me to the nearest Subaru dealership and helped me pick up two new bulbs. That is great service. If you need a hitch installed or need assistance picking one out, do not hesitate with Hitch King. Adam has been installing hitches for over 35 years. He is incredibly knowledgeable and helpful.

I purchased a Curt trailer hitch for my 2012 Nissan truck… ad indicated that it fits perfectly. Not True! I spent time trying to contact Amazon… no luck. I called Hitch King and spoke with Adan and WOW what a great guy… knowledgable, patient, and customer focused! He told me a couple of «fixes» I could use… and they worked! I was able to install the unit successfully. Curt should be ashamed of themselves as I read so many reviews that indicated that the customer would have to retrofit the unit and they haven’t changed the manufacturing of the unit despite the many reviews I read. That shouldn’t be. Anyway, Adam saved the day for me and For Sure. If I need to purchase a hitch product I will go to Adam at Hitch King! Thanks, Adam!

I have had then install two hitches on vehicles in the past and both were done professionally, promptly, and reasonably priced.
This time, I needed an enclosed trailer on short notice because a reservation at U-​Haul proved as elusive as a unicorn (they wanted me to travel to Bensonhurst to pick up a trailer three hours later than the one I had reserved in Flushing)
Hitch King to the rescue; One phone call the afternoon before had the trailer waiting for me when they opened the next morning. I switched to a slightly larger one which was also available. It was a thing of beauty. Clean, in great shape, with a fold-​down door that doubled as a loading ramp. The only downside is that I had to return it to the same location but it was cheaper, bigger, and better than the one offered by U-​Haul.
There is a reason this independent, local company has been in business at one location for all these years: they treat their customers well.

I bought a hitch thinking I could install it myself. When I knew I was in over my head I called Hitch King and Adam got me right in that day. The hitch I bought on my own didn’t come with the right parts and Adam took the parts from his inventory and put them on my car at no extra charge and no hassle about it, which was a really classy thing to do. I think we spent more time socializing and talking world news than he spent installing the hitch. Do yourself a favor, if you’re thinking of buying a hitch and trying to install it on your own, step away form Ebay and give Adam a call. It’s worth every penny.

I was in a real bind and needed a hitch installed today. Called Hitch King and he said to come on in. 2 hours later I’m driving away with a new hitch. I’d say «only in New York,» but the truth is I looked everywhere and Hitch King was the only place that would help. For hitches when you’re in a bind, and even when you’re not but you want everything done right and by experts, then «only in Queens.» These guys are what they say they are. A refreshing experience.

Service: Excellent.
Communication: Excellent
Pricing: Excellent
Shop Location: Excellent. Ample parking. Easy to find.
To reduce your wait time, call in advance and schedule your visit. I did and was in and out in less than 30 minutes, from the time I arrived to the time I left.
I dealt with Adam and Dave, both top notch guys. I think the name of the installer was Alex. Great guy too. Knew the car and the installation very well. No nonsense, dedicated guy, clean, very knowledgeable.

I’m an old guy and don’t like BS. Talked to Adam on the phone a few times and went out there from Manhattan, Installed my hitch without a hitch. I am impressed.
I have an 86 Toyota and they took the trouble to find a hitch for me.
I use my trunk as a storeroom and can live out of it as I carry a multitude of things, tools, clothes, blankets, food, water, spare parts etc and it was the first time in a while I got to the spare and I filled it up as it had gone flat.
They quoted me a price and came in at that price.

They installed a bike hitch for me. I liked how they specialize in hitches, and asked me questions regarding what I was going to use my hitch for, and seemed very knowledgeable about installing hitches. The service was very friendly and professional, and they installed the hitch for me in ~30 minutes. The price was also less than a quote that I had received at a car shop, and the service man wasn’t as knowledgable about hitches at the car shop.

I ordered a Hitch from E-​Trailers and received a returned product. It was missing some hardware and had some dents on it. This was all less than a week before I needed to install the hitch and move across country. I knew the dents were cosmetic, but I needed the hardware (two rectangle washers, and two different diameter bolts) to get it set up.
The ship time for E-​trailers was going to be several days, and after a few phone calls I got them to overnight the missing hardware. Upon receiving the hardware, E-​trailer sent me the wrong sizes!
They were going to overnight me more, yet I didn’t feel confident in the request, so I took advantage of networking with local hitch dealers while in NY.
When I went to these guys, they took care of me and got me exactly what I needed. I’m writing this post from the other side of the country, and I wouldn’t have be without Hitch King otherwise.

I was so pleased with the service I received last week at Hitch King. Rob and his brother were both so professional and I really felt comfortable with them installing a hitch on my brand new car. I had priced it with UHaul and though it was about $ 100 cheaper, I do not feel they would have treated me and my car with as much care as Hitch King did. With newer cars, the electrical system is more complex and I did not want to take a chance for UHaul to mess that up! They have been in business for 43 years, so they know exactly what they are doing, and I will always choose to support a family business over a large corporation any day.
I called at 8am, they worked me in for an appt at 9am, and I was on the road by 10am — cannot complain about anything!
As this was my first time driving with a trailer, they went above just installing the hitch and offered several pointers and advice for safety, etc. I really was impressed by this level of service, it is hard to find in NYC!
Thanks guys — I really appreciate all of your help!

Without a doubt this is the best place you could go to if you want a hitch installed. With 43 years of experience they have seen it all. I did not trust Uhaul whatsoever to touch my vehicle. I have a brand new Volvo XC90 that I needed a hitch installed for. They were quick, courteous professional, and reasonably priced. Not all installations are textbook and these guys are able to adjust to any situation your car can throw at them.
They went above and beyond. I had also purchased a rear-​view camera kit. They don’t normally do these installations, but he was gracious enough to do it for me. It was an incredibly complicated installation for what I imagined would be easy. So much for imagination! My car did not fit the kit very well at all (as it was a hatchback and it was designed for a regular truck). The guys there were nimble magicians and did their best to make the wires through a maze of panels and parts, he custom designed a connection to the ignition controlled power (rather than using an unsightly cigarette lighter).
If it were me I’d be dumbstruck by with a pile of car parts strewn around me and I consider myself to be mechanically inclined.
Quite simply this place is magic. Curteous, knowledgeable, capable, and reasonably priced. This is THE place. Look no further.

Recently got a new RAV 4… and wanted to get a hitch for it. so I can carry several bikes. I been to several places and not one of them had a hitch for the new RAV 4 due to the new under carriage. Finally found Hitch King and gave them a call… No problem they had them in stock… didn’t even have to wait for them to order or anything.
This place is great… the guys really know what they are doing… i was in an out within 20 min.
The reason for the 4 and not 5 stars… is the price… They are a bit expensive… but then again… good service usually is. I lease my cars… so I need a new hitch everytime I get a new car… This will be my goto place.
Anyone looking for exceptional expertise and good service… this is the place.
Highly recommended.
