At the car
Found it flat in Hertford? Leave it where it is.
A Hertford flat can show up at the end of the day. Commuters off the Liverpool Street service find a front corner sitting on the rim at Hertford East, rail users at Hertford North come back to a soft rear tyre, and residents in Bengeo notice a car leaning on the drive. Driving the short way home on it feels harmless, yet the sidewall is being chewed up from inside.
Ring with the station, the car park area or the house number, plus the size if it is readable. When the van reaches Hertford the wheel comes away, and inside the tyre the fitter looks for the grey powder and creases that mean it was driven flat. A clean hole in the tread gets a patch-plug; anything else gets a replacement, and the cost of each is given on the call.
On run-flat tyres? They behave differently once deflated, so check the handbook's limits and read our page on run-flat tyres; we fit replacement run-flat tyres at the car in Hertford as well.
