Dead Car At Work in Marston Green? On-Site van jumpstart
Employer-arranged van jumpstart across Marston Green. Fast on-site attendance so staff are not stranded after a shift. 24/7 dispatch.
Employers increasingly arrange these callouts directly. It costs very little, resolves in under an hour and avoids an employee waiting three hours for a breakdown provider after a twelve-hour shift.
A dead Transit, Sprinter, Vivaro or Crafter on a B37 driveway usually isn't a garage job. A proper mobile jumpstart with a 2000A+ pack gets you running in minutes without a recovery truck.
Village suburb next to Birmingham Airport and the NEC. — that means a mix of tight residential streets and industrial estates, and we're set up to work in both without needing a low-loader.
Employers and staff we help

Access, timing and payment
- Payment can be taken from the employee by card or invoiced to the employer, decided at booking.
- Work is carried out in the bay with portable equipment, so vehicles do not need moving or towing.
- Battery registration/coding done on the OBD for vans that need it (Sprinter, Crafter, T6, Custom)
- Every van jumpstart finishes with a charging-system reading, so the same fault does not reappear next week.

Workplace callout questions
Q.What if the van battery keeps going flat every week?
That's parasitic drain — usually a dashcam, tracker or aftermarket electrics wired to permanent live. We do a milliamp draw test and identify the circuit.
Q.Can you invoice a fleet directly?
Yes — 30-day account terms and single monthly invoice for multi-vehicle operators. Just send us the fleet list.
Q.Can the employer pay rather than the employee?
Yes. Tell us at booking and we invoice the business rather than taking a card at the vehicle.
Q.Do you need a site induction?
For most car parks, no. For secure or industrial sites we will follow whatever access process you have — just tell us in advance.
Q.Can you attend at shift changeover?
Yes, including evening and overnight handovers. That is when most of these calls come in.
Q.Do you cover Marston Green and the B37 area for this?
Yes. Marston Green is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M42 J4/J5, roughly 3 miles from Solihull. We cover it alongside Solihull and the surrounding streets.
