Retail and hospital car parks generate a steady share of our callouts simply because that is where cars sit with the ignition on, the boot open and the radio playing while people load up.

Fleets working out of the B90 area — courier, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roofing, letting agents — call us daily. We know your vans, we know your yard, we know when your first drop is.

We invoice monthly with full PDF breakdown per vehicle — clean for accounts to file, VAT-compliant, no per-job card fiddling.

Recent car park callouts

Recent job nearby: a hatchback on the third deck of a town-centre multi-storey near Solihull. Height barrier blocked the van, engineer walked up with a lithium pack — car running in under six minutes.
Recent job nearby: a car in a retail park off M42 J4/J5 with the boot light left on all afternoon. Boosted, tested, no battery needed.

Working where a recovery truck cannot

  • Portable lithium boost packs let us work in bays a van cannot physically reach, including upper multi-storey decks.
  • Card and contactless payment is taken at the vehicle, which matters when you cannot leave the bay.
  • On-site fleet audits available — we check the whole yard once a quarter and flag ageing batteries before they fail
  • Every fleet jumpstart finishes with a charging-system reading, so the same fault does not reappear next week.

Car parks we get called to

Access is the real variable here: some B90 decks take a van, some do not, and we plan for both before setting off.

Locally that means Solihull itself plus the neighbourhoods that feed into it, with access via M42 J4/J5 and A34 Stratford Road and a practical radius reaching Shirley (~2 mi) and Olton (~2 mi).

Car park callout questions

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.

Q.Can you reach a car on the top deck of a multi-storey?

Yes. If the height barrier stops the van, the engineer walks the boost pack and test kit to the bay — it is a two-minute walk, not a problem.

Q.Do I need permission from the car park operator?

Generally no for a boost or a battery swap in your own bay. If a barrier needs opening for the van we will talk it through with you on the phone first.

Q.What if I have already overstayed?

Get us moving first. Most operators will consider an appeal with evidence of a breakdown, and the quicker the car leaves the bay the stronger that case is.

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

Yes. Solihull is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M42 J4/J5, roughly 8 miles from Birmingham. We also cover the surrounding neighbourhoods on the same run.

Q.Can drivers call directly?

Yes — we tag your account against your fleet's registered numbers so drivers don't need to authorise every call, and admin still sees one invoice.

Who this helps

Shoppers, hospital visitors and commuters caught out mid-errand across Solihull.

Domestically, interwar detached houses and executive new-builds dominate around here, which shapes how these jobs are accessed and worked.

Stuck in a bay right now?

Tell us the car park and the deck. Most Solihull car park jobs are cleared before a recovery truck would have been assigned. Same fixed pricing whether it is a fleet jumpstart at 9am or 3am, anywhere in Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council.

How the visit runs

  1. 1

    Onboard the fleet

    One call, one fleet list, account live the same day for first callouts.

  2. 2

    Driver calls in

    Driver quotes the fleet reference; no card payment, no per-job admin.

  3. 3

    Priority dispatch

    Account jobs go ahead of retail callouts, typical arrival 30–45 minutes.

  4. 4

    Working where a recovery truck cannot

    Testing is done in the bay — resting voltage, load test and charging output — so you are not sent away with the same fault.

Other areas we cover

As a district hub, Solihull is covered alongside its surrounding neighbourhoods, so a stranded in a car park call from any of them routes to the same engineer.

The short version

The clock is the problem in a car park, so the answer is the fastest competent fix — test, boost, verify, and get you out through the barrier. That is the whole job: diagnose it properly, fix it once, and explain what caused it.
