Scrap Car Disposal
Urban Recovery provides a nationwide free car disposal service if you no longer require your vehicle either because it is uneconomical to repair following an accident or due to MOT failure. Urban Recovery provides this service for free to enable customers to disposal of their unwanted vehicles in a cheap and a environmentally friendly manner. Urban Recovery will collect your vehicle at a convenient time and ensure the vehicle is depolluted (hazardous parts are removed for reuse, recycling or disposal) before the vehicle is scrapped. Call our free phone number 0800 84 96 711 to arrange for your vehicle to be collected.
Storage
Urban Recovery operates from a 24 hour manned secure compound. We typically store cars for parties pending the agreement of insurance claims, if required we can bill insurance companies direct for our services.
Should we provide an accident recovery service for a customer then, if required, we will provide 48 hours storage free. Note: The free storage is only for customers who have been involved in accidents.
Maintenance
Urban Recovery transport cars and light commercial vehicles for private and trade customers, our primary concern is that the vehicle being transported is delivered promptly and in the same condition as it was received.
To this end all our vehicles are kept in a roadworthy condition at all times. All our transporters are subjected to a daily walk-around check to ensure that the day to day running of our vehicles goes smoothly, any defects are reported and rectified immediately. Over and above our daily inspection we also subject all our vehicles to a 6 weekly inspection by a qualified independent workshop, these inspections are effectively a six weekly MOT and this ensures any potential defects are caught and rectified at an early stage.
Our vigorous inspections schedule ensures that all our vehicles are maintained to the highest of standards and helps us to provide the level of service to our customers that they expect.
Driver training.
Although our drivers are experienced and trained in vehicle recovery/transport we continually monitor their performance and give additional training or refreshers if and when required. When our drivers are on the roads we are not only representing ourselves but also our customers, we therefore ensure that our drivers possess the relevant people skills to maintain the level of professionalism that we all expect when dealing with the general public or third party customers.
