Sorted in Mere Green: loaded van handled 24/7
If you are dealing with loaded van anywhere in Mere Green, we are roughly 13 miles away in Oldbury and come in via M6 Toll T4. That matters because it decides whether this is a short local job or a relay — for Mere Green it is almost always the former. Keys, locking wheel nut and paperwork sort out ninety per cent of delays on a Mere Green collection. Landmarks we use for Mere Green directions: Sutton Park and Mere Green shopping centre. You deal with the same operation from the first call to the drop-off. Access notes get saved against your address, so the second Mere Green callout is faster than the first.

We recover loaded vans across Birmingham, Solihull, Sandwell and the Black Country with attention to securing the load properly for the journey, and we're happy to work around your schedule if you need to get to a job or make arrangements for the contents.
Why it happens
If you need access to your tools before recovery
If you need to grab specific tools or stock before the van's recovered — for instance if you're heading to a job with a different vehicle — let us know and we'll work around this where it's safe and practical to do so before loading.
- Flag any particularly heavy or valuable items on board when you call
- Let us know if you need access to specific items before we load the van
- Consider whether stock needs temperature control or careful handling
- We can take the van to your workshop, home, or a garage as needed
Where the van goes from here
We can recover your van to your regular garage, a fleet maintenance provider, your business premises, or your home — whatever makes most sense given the load and your plans for the rest of the day.
Keeping your load secure
Once your van is loaded onto our recovery vehicle, we make sure the contents inside remain secure for the journey — this is worth flagging to us if you've got particularly heavy, valuable, or awkwardly shaped equipment on board, so we can plan appropriately.

Parked-both-sides streets around shopfront parades are the usual constraint rather than distance. Units around Mere Green Road retail parades are the busiest commercial pickup points on this patch.

Recap for B75
In Mere Green the deciding factors are access off A5127 and where the vehicle can legally be loaded. Get those clear on the call and loaded van is straightforward from B75. Mere Green sits roughly 9 miles out from the city centre, so we rarely route through town to reach you. Nothing gets sub-contracted out of the Birmingham City Council area.

Mere Green questions
Do you charge differently for a loaded van versus an empty one in Mere Green?
Get in touch with the details of your situation and we'll talk you through it — the main thing is making sure your load and the van are both handled properly.
Will my tools and stock be safe during recovery in Mere Green?
Yes, we take care to secure the load for the journey, and it helps if you flag anything particularly heavy or valuable when you call.
Do I need to be with the vehicle in Mere Green?
Not always. For collections from shopfront parades or a unit near Mere Green Road retail parades we can work with a key safe or a nominated contact, provided we have written authority and someone to receive the vehicle at the other end.
What if the vehicle is blocking A453?
Say so immediately — that changes the priority. A vehicle on a live carriageway near Sutton Park is treated as urgent, and we will talk you through where to stand while you wait.
Can I take some of my tools out before you recover the van in Mere Green?
Yes, if it's safe and practical, let us know in advance and we'll work around getting you what you need before loading.
Can you take the vehicle to a garage outside Mere Green?
Yes. Most drops go to a garage in Mere Green itself or in Four Oaks, but we will run further if that is where your repairer is. Give us the destination on the call so it is inside the quoted price.
We are 13 miles away. Shall we come?
Tell the dispatcher whether you are on shopfront parades, in a yard, or on the carriageway near Sutton Park — that decides the truck.
