Be careful when pre-paying....make sure you a dealing with a REPUTABLE business. This happened to me a few years ago:
I broadsided a drunk driver leaving a college bar. The hit caused $4K damage to my car.
After a couple weeks I received a check from the insurance company to cover repairs. My insurance guy told me to turn the check over to the body shop when I took the car in to be fixed - ie. to pre-pay for the bodywork. The shop had been in business many years and I believed to be trusted.
A week or so later I got a message from the shop my car was ready to be picked up. However when I called back a few hours later to arrange a time for pickup the I was informed phone # was no longer in service(!)
So I drove over to investigate. Discovered the place all locked up with car (and several others) parked inside.
Taped inside the door was a form declaring the property had been seized by the state for non-payment of taxes. It listed a number to call in the state capital for questions.
It took a week of calls to the state tax office, my insurance guy, the state AG's office and finally a "nastygram" from my attorney to get a marshal to unlock the shop so I could retrieve my car.
Bottom line: Beware - even with a "reputable" business!
