First Job Of The Day — Oldbury Van fleet jumpstart
Oldbury trade van callouts — Transit, Sprinter, Vivaro and Crafter. On-site Fleet & Business Jumpstart with same-visit battery fitting and VAT invoices.
Trade vehicles live a hard life electrically: tail lifts, inverters, tracking units, beacons and heated screens all pull from the same battery, often with the engine off while somebody is on site.
Business account jumpstart and battery replacement across Oldbury — priority response, single monthly invoice, no per-job admin, no chasing drivers for card payments.
Account customers get priority slots ahead of retail callouts, so a fleet job on your yard in Oldbury won't sit behind three domestic driveway jobs.

Why working vans fail overnight
Oldbury has a strong chemicals presence, so a decent share of our morning callouts are working vehicles parked overnight on residential streets and at yards.
Locally that means Oldbury itself plus the neighbourhoods that feed into it, with access via M5 J2 and A4123 and a practical radius reaching Langley (~1 mi) and Warley (~1 mi).
Kit that copes with diesel cranking
- Dual-battery and auxiliary systems on converted vans are tested separately, since a healthy starter battery can sit next to a dead leisure battery.
- Heavy-duty boost packs rated for diesel cranking are used, not car-grade units that sag under load.
- Bulk battery pricing — replacement AGM/EFB batteries at trade rates, not retail
- Every fleet jumpstart finishes with a charging-system reading, so the same fault does not reappear next week.

Recent job nearby: a Transit in Oldbury loaded for a 7:30am start, dead flat after a weekend of tracker drain. Boosted and battery replaced on the kerb by 7:10am.
Recent job nearby: a Sprinter at a yard off M5 J2 with a healthy starter battery but a collapsed auxiliary — found because both were tested separately.

Trade van questions
Q.Can you invoice the business rather than take a card?
Yes. VAT invoices and account terms are available for trade customers, and repeat callers get set up once.
Q.Will a normal jump pack start a 2.2 diesel van?
Often not when it is genuinely flat. Diesel starters can draw 700–900 amps cold, which is why we carry commercial-grade packs.
Q.How early can you get to a van in Oldbury?
We run overnight, so a 5am or 6am call is normal. Trade jobs before the first appointment are prioritised.
Q.Do you cover Oldbury and the B68 area for this?
Yes. Oldbury is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M5 J2, roughly 6 miles from Birmingham. We also cover the surrounding neighbourhoods on the same run.
Q.Can you supply and fit batteries at trade price?
Yes — Yuasa, Varta, Bosch and Exide at proper trade rates for account customers, fitted on your yard with OBD coding included.
Q.What if a driver is stranded outside our depot?
That's what account customers get priority for — one call from the driver, we handle it and bill your account, no card payment at the roadside.
