About Us
This is a family business that has been owned & operated by the Prado family for over 75 years. We serve the South Fork from Montauk to Bridgehampton.
Our father, Marshall Prado Sr moved to Montauk in the 1920's as Carl Fischer's personal driver. After marrying Ellie, he began Marshall's, as a taxi stand. Soon he joined the Fire Department, added the gas station to the business, and the couple had 4 children. The boys worked alongside their father in town. Both Bobby & Eddie joined the Fire Department.
The boys bought the business from their father and expanded it to include fuel oil delivery, and a vehicle maintenance garage. Today, the business has grown to include beach towing, HVAC, plumbing & a convenience store. The family values that our parents held are still the main values driving us as we operate. Marshall Sr. was the type of man who was always opening up his home to others and providing a reliable place to call on when help was needed.
Marshall and his brothers continue to support local organizations & charities. They are often among the first responders to accidents in the area. We proudly continue to support the Montauk Fire Department, Chamber of Commerce, Friends of Erin, Music for Montauk, East End Young Arts Initiative, Little Flower School, Montauk Community Garden, and many others. We do things right, we are there for you when you need us, and we take care of your investments as we would our own, whether they be a beat-up old car you drive around town occasionally, or a sprawling estate on the cliffs. We are discreet and professional, and are a trusted source for advice & knowledge. The next generation has been working alongside Marshall, Bob and Ed for the past few years, and is in training to continue to provide the same service that has always been synonymous with our name. Payment plans are available to locals experiencing hard times. Call us next time you need help.
