Mobile tyre fitting
in Caddington.

A fitter at your car
in Caddington.

Caddington has no A or B road through its middle, so the damage here generally comes from elsewhere: a screw collected on the M1, debris picked up on the way into Luton, or a kerb clipped on the run out to Slip End. The owner finds out afterwards, from a slow hiss on the drive or a soft tyre at breakfast. That suits mobile work, since the car can stay at home while the tyre comes to it. Pass on the tyre size plus the whole postcode, and the fitter sets off prepared.

Drives, bays and car parks.

Off the road is the answer in Caddington nearly every time. A drive with room on both sides is ideal, and a wide residential road will do where there is space for traffic to pass the open van. Narrow lanes without verges are a poor choice, as the car ends up tilted with a wheel on soft ground. If the car can still be driven, the bays at Laporte Retail Park or Hatters Way Retail Park in Luton offer a hard, level alternative with room to work.

Most calls come from homes in the village itself and from the small settlements around it, with Aley Green, Woodside, Farleygreen and Chaul End all within about a mile and a half. The postcode deserves care: part of Caddington is LU1, a Luton district, and part is AL3, which belongs to St Albans, so neighbouring houses can sit in different postal towns. Read it from a letter or a parcel label when booking. With no rail station in Caddington and nowhere public to park, the fitter usually works on a private drive. The Co-operative Food store has customer parking, which exists for shoppers and is not something to plan a fit around. Business yards are fine with the owner's permission.
