Mobile Tyre Fitting & Emergency Roadside

Mobile Tyre Fitting & Emergency Roadside in Southampton

Tyres on the motorway approaches into Southampton face higher speeds and more traffic than most of our coverage, which makes sidewall and shoulder damage more common and less forgiving. A sidewall blowout at those speeds is not something to drive away from. If you are stopped in a live lane we will talk you through moving to safety first and talk you through it while we travel — the repair comes second to that.

QUESTIONS

Questions about tyres & roadside in Southampton

Do you carry tyres on the van in Southampton?

We carry a selection of common sizes. For anything less common we confirm availability from your registration or the sidewall size before we set off, so you are not left waiting.

Can you fit tyres at my house or work?

Yes. Fitting at your home, workplace or car park is the most common job we do — there is no need to book into a garage.

What if I break down on a motorway?

Move as far off the carriageway as you safely can, switch on hazard lights and call us with your location. We will guide you while we travel.

THE SITUATION

A burst tyre on the M27 approach

The vehicle had a tyre destroyed on the motorway approach, which is the place where a call takes longest and matters most. The driver had done the right thing and pulled into the hard shoulder rather than driving on, and we said so on the call because most people do not. We asked him to move to the nearest emergency area rather than the exact spot, so the van could work somewhere with room and lighting, and that single piece of advice shortened the job considerably. The tyre had come apart on the carriageway, so there was debris to clear as well as a wheel to change. We replaced it, checked the rim, and looked at the other three because a burst that severe is rarely the first sign. The driver got back onto the motorway in good time, which was the outcome that mattered.

LOCAL ADVICE

Practical advice for Southampton

  • If you burst on a motorway, pull into the emergency area rather than stopping on the hard shoulder. A shoulder is not a place to work.
  • Tread debris from a burst tyre is a hazard behind you. Tell us if there is any and we will clear it before we leave.
  • Give us the street rather than the postcode. Controlled parking zones vary and the vehicle may need moving before a van can get to it, which is worth sorting on the phone.
