Frame Repair for Lewis County & the I-5 Corridor
Chehalis sits at a critical junction along the I-5 corridor between Portland and Seattle, making it a hub for both local commuters and long-distance travelers. The twin cities of Chehalis and Centralia see steady traffic from residents, through-travelers, and the commercial vehicles that support Lewis County's agricultural, forestry, and manufacturing economy.
Our N Market Blvd location also serves drivers from Olympia and Tumwater to the north—communities that are closer to our Chehalis shop than any other Five Star location. Whether frame damage happens on I-5, the rural highways connecting smaller Lewis County communities, or in the parking lots of the Centralia Factory Outlets, our certified technicians provide the same computerized measuring and manufacturer-approved repair procedures used across all Five Star locations.
Lewis County's mix of highway driving, rural roads, and seasonal weather creates varied collision scenarios. From deer strikes on Highway 6 to rear-end collisions in I-5 construction zones, we see frame damage from every type of impact and restore each vehicle to factory structural specifications.

Pe Ell & Highway 6 Corridor

Driving Conditions in Lewis County
Local factors that lead to frame damage for Chehalis-area drivers
I-5 Corridor Through Lewis County
The I-5 stretch through Lewis County transitions between 70 mph highway and reduced-speed zones near Chehalis and Centralia exits. Speed differentials, semi-truck traffic, and the volume of Portland-Seattle travelers create conditions for high-impact collisions—particularly during holiday travel weekends and severe weather events.
Rural Highway Network
Lewis County's rural highways—including Highway 6 to the coast, Highway 12 toward White Pass, and Highway 508—feature curves, limited shoulders, and wildlife crossings. Deer strikes are particularly common during fall and winter months, and the resulting impacts frequently cause structural frame damage.
Seasonal Weather Extremes
Lewis County experiences more weather variation than coastal or urban areas. Heavy rain and flooding in the Chehalis River valley, ice on rural roads during winter cold snaps, and fog in low-lying areas all reduce visibility and traction. The infamous Chehalis River flooding zone near I-5 creates additional hazards during storm events.
Agricultural & Commercial Traffic
Lewis County's agricultural economy means farm equipment, timber trucks, and commercial vehicles share roads with passenger cars. Slow-moving equipment on two-lane roads and the transition between farm access roads and state highways create collision scenarios where speed and mass differentials cause significant structural damage.
