How it works
Choose where you work and what jobs you want. LeadHunter keeps watch and sends the right matches to your phone.
Pick the cities and neighborhoods you actually serve, plus the nearby areas you would still drive to.
Focus on no-starts, batteries, brakes, diagnostics, inspections, maintenance, and the work you actually take.
When a matching homeowner request appears, your phone gets an alert so you can reach out quickly.
Lead examples
The defining feature of these posts is that the car cannot be driven anywhere — which is exactly why they are asking neighbors instead of searching for a shop.
"Clicks but does not start. Cannot get it to a shop. Anyone who comes out to you?"
"Metal on metal sound when I stop. Do not want to drive it far. Someone who can do it here?"
"Light came on and it is idling badly. Want someone to read the code and tell me honestly."
"Meeting the seller Saturday. Anyone do pre-purchase inspections where the car is?"
"Third jump this week. New battery already. Something is draining it and I cannot find it."
"Small business, two vans, tired of losing a day at the shop. Want someone who comes to us."
Why it is different
Homeowners often ask for help once, then hire whoever makes them feel confident first. LeadHunter helps you spot local requests faster, without sitting on your phone all day.
On a marketplace like Angi, Thumbtack, or HomeAdvisor you pay for each lead and share it with the other pros who bought it. Here you pay one flat monthly price, the leads are yours alone, and there is no per-lead charge.
Built around real local homeowner language.
Every other trade on this site is asked for by somebody who could, in principle, have gone somewhere else. A mobile mechanic exists because the car will not move. That single fact changes where the request appears: a stranded driver does not search for a garage, because a garage is no use to them — they ask the people physically nearest, which is a neighborhood group.
It also means the geography is unusually literal. A post from four streets away is a job you can take before lunch; the same post from the other side of the metro is not worth the drive. The lead being local is not a nice-to-have, it is the margin.
Mobile mechanics have no published cost-per-lead figure in the datasets that price the home trades, which is a fair reflection of the fact that the category barely exists on those platforms. The demand is real and growing — people are keeping cars longer and value the day they do not lose at a shop — it simply gets asked for by description rather than by category.
There is no published cost-per-lead figure for mobile mechanic work. You can see what a lead costs in the 21 trades that are measured — roofing runs $101.15, landscaping $29.05 — for a sense of what the trades either side of yours are paying.
The same neighborhood post often mentions more than one trade.
