When you're a courier, a breakdown isn't just about the van – it's about the parcels sat in the back with someone waiting on them, and a schedule that doesn't stop just because you have. We try to keep that in mind every time we take a call from a delivery driver stuck at the roadside.
How the service works for you
Support for delivery firms
If you manage a small fleet of delivery vans, we can be the number your drivers call whenever something goes wrong, rather than each driver searching for help independently.
- 24/7 availability for early starts and late finishes
- Careful handling of vans with loads on board
- Recovery to a garage or depot of your choice
- Cover across Birmingham, Sandwell and the Black Country
Getting back on the road
Once the immediate issue is dealt with, we'll help however we can with getting you or a replacement van moving again, so the rest of the round isn't lost entirely.
Protecting the delivery
If your van can't be fixed roadside, we'll talk through options for the load itself, whether that's transferring items to another vehicle or making sure everything travels safely with the van to its next stop.
Why a Four Oaks account differs from a citywide one
A generic Birmingham arrangement treats every postcode the same. Yours does not work that way: your drivers use the same few roads out of Four Oaks every day, so the routing, the storage point and the authorised-caller list can all be set up once and reused. The quickest way in is M6 Toll T4, then down towards Four Oaks Park. Gated yards at Mere Green retail parades often have a height barrier; a gate code saves ten minutes. Common collection points: Mere Green retail parades, the parking by Four Oaks Park, and leafy avenues. Nothing gets sub-contracted out of the Birmingham City Council area.
- Standing route plan in via M6 Toll T4 then A5127
- Named default garage or depot in the B74 area
- Agreed authorisation rules so drivers are not left waiting
- Consolidated monthly invoicing across West Midlands jobs
