FAQs — Van recovery in Hall Green
Do you charge extra for van vs car recovery?
The rate reflects the truck used. Van recoveries need our 3.5t flatbed so the base rate is higher than a small car, but there are no surprises - flat quote up front.
Do you have a flatbed big enough for a LWB Sprinter in Hall Green?
Yes - our extended-deck 3.5t flatbed carries LWB Sprinter, Transit L4 and Boxer L4 without overhang. Confirm the model on the call so we send the right truck first time.
Can you recover a loaded van from Hall Green?
Up to the plated weight - yes. If the combined weight puts us over legal limits we do a partial transfer to another van first. We will not risk a VOSA stop with an overweight recovery.
Fleet contract recoveries in Hall Green?
Yes. Ring the office in normal hours and we set up an account with agreed fixed rates for your postcodes.
What about refrigerated vans in Hall Green?
We recover them but the fridge unit gets powered down first. Perishable loads should transfer to another chilled vehicle - we can help arrange that.
