The booking details, access questions and quote checks to settle before the fitter arrives.
A well-prepared mobile tyre visit starts before the appointment. Clear information helps the provider select a suitable tyre, assess the location and explain the work. Use this checklist whether the vehicle is on a driveway or in a workplace car park.
Send the essentials together
Provide the registration, exact location, affected wheel and a contact number. Add a readable photograph of the tyre markings if it is safe to take one. Explain whether the tyre is flat, damaged or simply due for replacement. Continental's size guide shows why the complete marking matters more than wheel diameter alone.
Confirm the working location
Describe the parking space, surface, nearby traffic and any access restrictions. Tell the provider about gates, height barriers or a permit-controlled car park. Ask them to confirm whether the location is suitable; do not assume every parking place can be used safely for fitting.
At work, obtain the relevant parking or site permission before the visit. Agree who will meet the fitter and who can approve any additional work after inspection.
Prepare the useful items
Have the wheel-locking key available if the vehicle uses one. Keep the vehicle keys and relevant handbook information accessible. Tell the provider in advance if something is missing so you can agree the next step before arrival.
Check the complete quote
Request the proposed tyre specification and total fitted price. Ask what is included, whether any additional charges apply and how an unexpected finding will be handled. Agree that you will be told about a changed recommendation before further work proceeds.
Finish with a clear handover
Ask what was fitted, whether any tyre-pressure system action is required and what advice applies to your vehicle afterwards. Keep the receipt and product details. For a Bolton appointment enquiry, use the contact page to send the checklist and confirm availability.
Questions before a mobile fitting visit
What should I have ready?
Vehicle details, a contact number, the agreed location and any locking wheel nut key. Confirm access and who will authorise the work.
Can the fitter work in any car park?
Ask the provider to assess the location, surface, traffic and access restrictions. Obtain workplace or site permission where needed.
How do I compare two quotes fairly?
Compare suitable tyre specifications and complete fitted prices. Ask what is included and how additional work would be agreed.
