The economics change with volume. Testing thirty vehicles in one visit and replacing the four that are marginal is far cheaper than four separate emergency callouts across the following month.

Late shift, night out, early flight — batteries pick the worst moments to die. If you're stranded anywhere from B90 to the M42 J4/J5 we're on it round the clock.

Emergency calls are logged, timestamped and priced up-front. What you pay at 4am is what you'd pay at 4pm — no exploitation.

Depot patterns we see

Shirley's aerospace and airport services activity means depots, yards and shared compounds where several vehicles sit unused over weekends.

Locally that means the streets between Shirley and Solihull, with access via M42 J4/J5 and A34 Stratford Road and a practical radius reaching Solihull (~2 mi) and Shirley (~2 mi).

Batch testing and grading

  • Vehicles are graded — healthy, monitor, replace — so replacement spend can be planned rather than reacted to.
  • Batch testing produces a per-vehicle state-of-health record with rated versus measured cold cranking amps.
  • Card, contactless, Apple Pay and Google Pay accepted on the driveway — no cash-only surprise
  • Every emergency jumpstart finishes with a charging-system reading, so the same fault does not reappear next week.

Operators we support

aerospace operators with more vehicles than spare time.

Commercially, Shirley leans toward aerospace and airport services, which is where most of this work comes from locally.

Recent fleet work nearby

Recent job nearby: a 26-vehicle depot near Shirley batch tested in one evening. Five batteries graded "replace" and swapped before Monday, with no morning no-starts that quarter.
Recent job nearby: a courier operator off M42 J4/J5 with recurring Monday failures — traced to weekend tracker drain across the fleet rather than battery age.

Fleet and account questions

Q.Is there a night surcharge?

No. Same price at 3am as at 3pm. We think surcharging people who are already stranded is bad business.

Q.I'm on my own and don't feel safe — can you stay on the phone?

Yes — we do this all the time. We'll stay on the line until we arrive, and you can share your live location if that helps.

Q.Can you test a whole fleet in one visit?

Yes. Batch testing is quick per vehicle and produces a written grading for each one, so replacements can be planned across a budget cycle.

Q.Do you offer account terms?

Yes — account invoicing, consolidated monthly billing and named contact dispatch for fleet customers.

Q.Can you attend outside operating hours?

Overnight and weekend depot visits are standard for fleet work, precisely so vehicles are not pulled out of service.

Q.Do you cover Shirley and the B90 area for this?

Yes. Shirley is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M42 J4/J5, roughly 2 miles from Solihull. We cover it alongside Solihull and the surrounding streets.

Depot coverage

Working out from B90, the practical radius for a emergency jumpstart takes in Solihull, Shirley, Olton and Knowle — all within a few minutes of M42 J4/J5.

Why this is safe to book

  • Written per-vehicle reporting that a transport manager can file and act on.
  • Old batteries removed and recycled on every emergency jumpstart.

The short version

For a fleet, the useful metric is vehicles available at 6am. Batch testing, grading and planned replacement in Shirley moves that number without inflating spend. For emergency jumpstart specifically, that means one dispatcher, one van, one price — no third-party contractor markup like breakdown clubs use
