Prices vary by exact model, year, and whether you have a working spare. Mileage adjustments apply outside Auburn — quoted upfront. Call (253) 796-8550 for an exact quote on your specific Toyota.
Step 1: Call us with your VIN. Year, make, and model help, but the VIN tells us exactly what key technology your specific Toyota uses and whether we can handle it on-site. We verify upfront so you don't waste a service call.
Step 2: Flat-rate quote. Based on your VIN and key situation, we quote a flat-rate price over the phone. The number you hear is the number you pay.
Step 3: Mobile service to your location. We come to wherever your Toyota is parked — your driveway, work parking lot, the side of the road. No towing required.
Step 4: ID verification. We verify proof of ownership (registration, title, or insurance + photo ID). This is required for everyone — it's how we protect your vehicle from theft via fake locksmith calls.
Step 5: Cut and program the key. Most Toyota keys take 20-60 minutes. All-keys-lost programming can take longer due to security timer delays built into the vehicle.
Step 6: Test and go. We confirm everything works — door locks, ignition/start, remote functions if applicable — then you drive away with a fully working key.
Yes — for the vast majority of Toyota models from 1998 to current. We carry blanks, transponders, and smart key fobs for the Toyota lineup including Camry, Corolla, RAV4, Highlander, Tacoma, Tundra, 4Runner, Sienna, and Prius. Some 2018+ specialty Lexus models with advanced security require dealer programming — we verify upfront via your VIN.
Standard Toyota transponder keys (older Camry, Corolla) run $135-$235. Remote head keys (newer non-smart-key models) run $185-$285. Smart proximity keys for push-to-start Toyotas run $285-$485. Pricing depends on your specific year/model and whether you have a working spare. All quotes flat-rate before dispatch.
Yes — for most Toyota models we can program an all-keys-lost replacement on-site. The car connects to our programmer via the OBD-II diagnostic port. Some newer high-security Toyota and Lexus models have all-keys-lost timer delays of 16-30 minutes or sometimes require dealer programming. We check via VIN before dispatching.
Standard transponder Toyota keys: 20-30 minutes including cutting and programming. Toyota smart proximity keys: 30-60 minutes for most. All-keys-lost programming can take 45-90 minutes due to Toyota's built-in security timer.
Yes. Push-to-start Toyota smart keys are common in our work. We cut the emergency blade and program the proximity functions in the same visit. You leave with a fully working smart key, not just a backup blade.
Yes — we serve Toyota drivers throughout all of King and Pierce counties. Our mobile service comes to your home, work, or wherever your Toyota is parked. We're typically significantly less than Toyota of Auburn, Toyota of Renton, Toyota of Tacoma, or Larson Toyota in Fife dealer pricing plus you skip the tow.
