Drivers can drastically minimise downtime for mobile truck repairs by carrying out the steps below. Being proactive ensures that our technicians arrive with the correct equipment and are more informed about your situation, therefore speeding up the repair process.
If you are on a local road, turn on your hazard lights and set up warning triangles 45m behind your vehicle. If you are on the motorway, pull over at the next junction or into the hard shoulder, angling your wheels away from traffic. In both cases, exit from the left of the vehicle for safety.
Note the exact road, direction of travel and nearest mile marker or exit. Or use map applications to find the coordinates so our vehicle recovery company knows exactly where in Portsmouth to bring our mobile truck repairs, heavy vehicle recovery or car recovery services.
Before calling for help, gather specific details so our technicians can ensure we are dispatching the correct van, equipment and driver. Note the dashboard warning lights, such as the check engine and ABS lights. Listen for noises and check for leaks such as oil, coolant or air and identify any blown tyres.
Keep your vehicle registration, warranty information and fleet maintenance account details in an easy-to-reach spot so our specialists can get straight to work upon arrival with a solid understanding of your vehicle. We can work with cars, commercial and industrial vehicles and can provide our solutions roadside. So, whether you need our commercial vehicle breakdown assistance service with HGV diagnostics and trailer repairs or our car repairs, we are here to help 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Once a member of our team arrives on site, we can provide comprehensive mobile truck repairs to get you back on the road or arrange vehicle recovery, depending on your situation. Our vehicle recovery company offers the following services in Portsmouth and across the Southeast:
