Where the
vans go

Everything is measured from the unit in Bulwell. Most of the city is twenty minutes, the far edges about half an hour, and none of it changes what you pay.

How dispatch works

The nearer van comes

There are two vans and they are rarely both at the unit. When you ring, we check where each one is and send whichever reaches you sooner.

That is why the arrival times on this page are typical rather than promised. A job in Carlton might be twenty-five minutes from the unit and ten from wherever the second van has just finished. We tell you the real figure on the phone, not the one printed here.

It is also why the price does not change with distance. Charging more for Bingham than Arnold would mean charging people for where our van happened to be parked, which is not something they chose.

If you are just outside the towns below, ring anyway. Ruddington, Calverton, Stapleford and Radcliffe on Trent come up most weeks and are usually a yes.

What changes by area is access and parking, not price. Each page covers what we have learned about working there.

Worth knowing

What decides how fast we arrive

Where the vans are

Not where the unit is. A van finishing a job near you can be with you in ten minutes, wherever you are on the patch.

Time of day

The ring road at half five is a different journey from the ring road at eight. Evening callouts often arrive faster than lunchtime ones.

Not the distance charge

There is not one. The furthest town on this page costs exactly what the nearest one does.

Not how urgent it sounds

Everybody is urgent. A car on a motorway hard shoulder or a child locked in goes first; everyone else is taken in order.

Coverage questions

Common questions

If your town is not on this page, ring before assuming it is a no. The eight here are where we go every week, not a fence.

Call 0115 960 4128
Do you charge more for coming further out?

No. Every town on this page is the same price, including coming out to you. Outside the patch we may add something, and you will hear the figure before we set off.

How accurate are the arrival times?

They are typical, from the unit, at a normal time of day. The real figure depends on where the vans are when you ring, and we give you that on the phone rather than the printed one.

Can you come to a motorway or a main road?

Yes, where it is safe to work. On a hard shoulder, get behind the barrier and ring us rather than waiting in or beside the car. Some locations need recovery first, and we will tell you if yours does.

I am just outside the list. Is that a no?

Usually not. Ruddington, Calverton, Stapleford and Radcliffe on Trent come up regularly. Send the postcode and you will get a straight answer the same day.

On a map

Roughly half an hour in every direction from Bulwell, stretched along the A52 and the M1 because that is where the roads take the vans.
