Need Accident Recovery in Selly Oak? We're on the Way
In Selly Oak we mostly help private motorists, insurers, accident management firms, working around student housing and Victorian terraces.
Around Selly Oak we're mostly working with private motorists and insurers, and most calls happen at either end of the working day. The accident recovery we do here isn't quite the same as what we do in an outer suburb — you're closer to the M5 J4 and traffic behaves differently around the Queen Elizabeth Hospital at peak. We plan the route accordingly.
How we handle accident recovery here
Accident Recovery in Selly Oak usually means one of a few things. The equipment on the truck matters: we bring tilt-and-slide beds with low approach angles and sweeping kit for glass and debris, and we plan access around student housing which are common here. Worth knowing: leaking fluids need soakage down before loading.
