We know it is often a time of panic and anger when you are stuck with a broken down vehicle. Here’s a couple of things to have handy when you call us for vehicle towing:
- Your location. If you are not sure of your exact location, check for landmarks around you or you can say something like “I am about five-minutes north of the milk factory heading to Timbuctoo”.
- A contact number for our drivers to call you on.
