Text photos to (602) 935-6008, any hour. We’ll tell you whether it looks like Tuesday’s hail and what it likely runs. If it’s worth repairing, we pick the car up in Mesa, Gilbert or Chandler for free and bring it back done. Text Damage Photos Call (602) 935-6008 Call Now, 24/7 After Dark ## FOUND THE DENTS WEDNESDAY? THE DATE IS STILL TUESDAY A storm at 10 PM on a weeknight means most cars were in driveways and apartment lots, and most owners were inside. Many drivers found out the next morning, walking out to a hood that looked like a golf ball. Write down the right date when you call your carrier. The date of loss is when the hail fell, Tuesday, October 20, 2026, not when you noticed it. Getting the date right matters more than usual this week, because a second storm hit the other side of the Valley the next afternoon. An adjuster who sees a Mesa address and a Wednesday date may check it against the wrong storm. Put October 20 on the claim, and if you’re not sure which night your car was hit, tell the carrier exactly where it was parked each night. Night hail also hides itself. In headlights or a porch light, shallow dents vanish into the reflection. Check again in early morning light, looking down the hood and roof from a low angle, or text us photos and we’ll tell you what we see. East Valley Commuters ## HIT IN MESA TUESDAY, AT WORK IN NORTH PHOENIX WEDNESDAY? A lot of East Valley drivers commute across the Valley. A car parked at home in Mesa on Tuesday night may have been in a lot along I-17 on Wednesday afternoon, when the north Phoenix storm hit between 3:25 and 4:05 PM. That car could have been hailed twice, on two different dates. If that’s you, tell your carrier about both dates and where the car was each time. How your policy treats two storms, including whether it counts as one claim or two, is the carrier’s call, and policies differ. What we can do is document the damage carefully and keep the paperwork straight for the adjuster. Our [north Phoenix page](https://dgcollision.com/hail-damage-repair-north-phoenix/) maps the Wednesday reports.

The National Weather Service logged hail in Mesa between 10:10 and 10:25 PM on Tuesday, October 20, 2026: quarter-size near Baseline and Dobson, then a measured 1-inch stone and a pile of stones up to about 2 inches in northeast Mesa. **Q: I found the dents Wednesday morning. What date do I put on the claim?** A: October 20, 2026. The date of loss is when the hail fell, not when you noticed it. The East Valley storm hit Tuesday night between 10:05 and 10:25 PM. **Q: Where in Mesa was the hail biggest?** A: Northeast Mesa. The 2-inch report, logged as 3 ENE Mesa at 10:25 PM, sits roughly near Gilbert Road and Brown Road. The coordinates are rounded to about half a mile, so treat that as the neighborhood, not the exact corner. **Q: Did Chandler and Gilbert get hail too?** A: Yes. West Chandler logged half-inch to 0.88-inch hail at 10:05 and 10:06 PM; a spotter said it “rapidly accumulated.” At 10:10 PM a spotter reported dime to quarter-size hail at Arizona Avenue and Elliot Road, logged as 3 W Gilbert. **Q: Does half-inch hail damage a car?** A: Usually not much. Pea to half-inch hail rarely dents modern panels. Quarter-size hail can leave shallow dents on hoods, roofs and trunk lids, so check in low morning light if you were near the 1-inch reports. **Q: Your shop is in north Phoenix. Isn’t that far from Mesa?** A: It’s across the Valley, which is why pickup and drop-off are free for Mesa, Gilbert and Chandler. We pick the car up from your home or work and bring it back when it’s done. **Q: My car might have been hit Tuesday in Mesa and Wednesday at work. Is that two claims?** A: It may be. October 20 and October 21 were separate storms. Tell your carrier both dates and where the car was each time. How your policy handles it is the carrier’s decision. We document the damage so the adjuster has clear records either way. **Q: ¿Recogen carros en Mesa? ¿Hablan español?** A: Sí a las dos. Recogemos y regresamos su carro sin costo en Mesa, Gilbert y Chandler, y hablamos español en la línea (602) 935-6008, las 24 horas.
