Local knowledge

Good to know in Arnold & Mapperley

  • Steep roads and electric handbrakes

    A car with an electric handbrake or locked wheels can't just be rolled onto a trailer, especially on a slope. We carry recovery skates that take the weight of locked wheels, so the car comes away cleanly without damage.

  • Frosty mornings

    The high ground around Mapperley Plains is often the first place to freeze. Cold mornings are when tired batteries finally give up, and we can test and replace them right there on the street or drive.

  • Mansfield Road and the A614

    The A60 gets heavy at peak times, and the A614 north of Arnold is fast. If you've stopped on either, hazards on, get out on the side away from traffic, and send us a pin so we can find you straight away.

Can you recover a car that's stuck on a steep driveway?

Usually. Tell us the slope and whether the wheels turn. With skates and a winch we can move most cars safely, and we'll tell you honestly on the phone if a job needs anything extra.
