On-the-Go Auto Glass Service You Can Count On
Whether you’re commuting across the Bay Bridge, working on a construction site in Alameda, or parked curbside in Fruitvale, modern life in Oakland means you don’t always have time to visit a shop. That’s where mobile auto glass repair in Oakland, CA comes in. At Auto Glass on the Move, we bring professional-grade tools, certified technicians, and 45+ years of East Bay experience directly to your driveway, office, or job site.

Mobile Glass Repair vs. In-Shop Service: Which Is Better for Your Vehicle?
Choosing between mobile and in-shop auto glass repair depends on your vehicle, location, and schedule.
Here’s how both stack up:
In-Shop Glass Repair
For complex issues like heavy body damage or rare vehicle glass that requires specialty calibration, our Oakland facility is fully equipped to handle the job. We offer in-house ADAS recalibration, classic car glass fabrication, and full diagnostic support.
In-shop appointments are best when:
- Your vehicle needs additional bodywork or frame alignment
- You’re repairing rare or discontinued glass
- You prefer a controlled shop environment
Mobile Auto Glass Repair
When your schedule is tight or your car is stuck, mobile auto glass replacement in Oakland, CA, is a flexible, fast solution. Our technicians come fully prepared with tools, adhesives, and vehicle-specific glass.
Mobile services are ideal for:
- Windshield cracks, chips, or full replacements
- Door or rear glass damage
- Power window malfunctions
- Fleet vehicle glass work on-site
- Heavy equipment or job-site service needs
With technicians dispatched from multiple warehouses in Oakland, Walnut Creek, and Hayward, we’re often able to offer same-day mobile windshield replacement in Oakland, CA and nearby cities like San Leandro, San Ramon, and Berkeley.
How Mobile Techs Prepare for On-Site Glass Replacement
Each technician is trained and certified to meet manufacturer specs and national safety standards (AGRSS, Auto Glass Safety Council, etc.). Our mobile units are stocked with premium OEM and OEM-equivalent glass, calibrated tools, and adhesives designed for fast, secure curing, even in fluctuating East Bay weather.
We can handle modern glass systems with heads-up displays, antennas, heating elements, and ADAS safety cameras. Our on-site ADAS recalibration services are a major benefit, helping drivers avoid second trips to a dealership or calibration shop. Whether you drive a Ford with rain sensors or a BMW with a forward collision camera, we complete the job in one stop, one visit.
Frequently Asked Questions About Our Services
Is mobile service recommended for ADAS-equipped windshields, or should recalibration be done in-shop?
Both options are available. What makes Auto Glass on the Move unique is that we offer mobile auto glass replacement in Oakland, CA, and mobile ADAS recalibration, a rare combo. If weather and vehicle conditions permit, we can do both on-site. If not, we’ll schedule an in-shop recalibration immediately after install.
Are SDATs (Safe Drive-Away Times) longer in cold mornings around Walnut Creek or San Ramon?
Yes, temperature and humidity affect adhesive cure times. We use high-performance adhesives suited for Bay Area conditions and follow OEM guidelines carefully. Your tech will give you a precise SDAT before you drive.
How do I prep my driveway or workspace for a mobile installer?
A flat, shaded area with room to work around the glass is ideal. We ask that you remove valuables from the dash and clear any debris around the workspace. No power or water hookup is needed, since our mobile units are fully self-contained.
