What Information Does a Recovery Driver Need?

What Information Does a Recovery Driver Need?

Giving accurate information at the start can make a recovery request much easier to assess.

Your pickup location

Use an exact postcode where possible. For a live breakdown, Onagone can also accept your shared phone location where the browser supports it.

Your destination

Tell us where the vehicle needs to go. The actual road journey is important for route-based pricing.

Vehicle details

Provide the registration and describe the vehicle accurately. If it is unusually large or heavy, or has accident damage, seized wheels or another loading issue, include that information.

What has happened?

A short description such as overheating, non-start, puncture or collision damage helps explain the situation. Do not attempt roadside diagnosis or repairs where doing so would put you at risk.

Need vehicle recovery?

Onagone lets you enter your pickup location and destination online. The route and vehicle details are reviewed before the job is confirmed or payment requested.
