free pick up & car collection by cross lane garage wakefield

Take Advantage Of Our Free Pick Up & Drop Off

One thing we like to be is extra helpful. And what could be more useful than making your annual trip to the garage easier? Well, ordinary it would be to collect and drop off your car for FREE. However, we’ve had to update this service due to Covid-19. So sadly, for now, we’re not offering this service unless it is an absolute emergency.

It will be back – Car Collection in Wakefield

Are you based in the Wakefield area? If yes, I promise we will return to this service once we feel it is safe to do so. But for now, please use your other half or another somewhat reliable driver to travel with you in convoy. Alternatively, we are on the main Dewsbury Road bus routes, or we can help arrange a taxi if you need. Or pop across the road to McDonald’s or Morrison’s while we complete your works.

You Can Always Wait If You Want?

However, if you’d prefer to bring your car yourself and wait, that’s ok too. That’s because “While You Wait MOTs” are something we can turn around very quickly. We are even in the process of a waiting area makeover to make this more comfortable for you. However, for now, we’d recommend McDonald’s just across the road, so you can seek refreshments while you wait from the ‘golden arches.’
