Specifying for high-cycle use
- Charging output is verified under full cabin load, not at idle with everything switched off.
- Accessory load from terminals, cameras and mounts is measured, since permanently-live wiring is common on hire vehicles.
- 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.
The duty cycle behind the failures
Warley sits within easy reach of Oldbury, so local hire drivers cover a wide radius with a lot of short-hop, high-start work.
Locally that means the streets between Warley and Oldbury, with access via M5 J2 and A4123 and a practical radius reaching Oldbury (~1 mi) and Langley (~1 mi).
Private hire questions
Q.Do you cover Warley and the B68 area for this?
Yes. Warley is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via M5 J2, roughly 1 miles from Oldbury. We cover it alongside Oldbury and the surrounding streets.
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.
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.Why does my taxi eat batteries faster than a private car?
Because it cycles far more. Fifty starts a day plus long idles with cabin load is several times the duty a standard battery is designed for.
Q.Is AGM worth the extra for a hire vehicle?
Usually yes. Under high cycling the longer service life normally outweighs the higher purchase price well before the second year.
Q.How fast can you turn a job around?
Hire vehicles are prioritised alongside trade vans. Most Warley jobs are completed within the hour of arrival, often much less.
