We have used Boleyn now for over 10 years as our trusted National recovery and support agent. Fortunately, while our calls to the team are few and far between, the service we receive when we contact is always brilliant. The team in the control room 24h are always very helpful and friendly. The recovery fleet operated by Boleyn themselves is brilliant and they always have a vehicle suitable for the job required along with knowledgeable and helpful recovery drivers. If we are unlucky enough to be further away from their operating base in the UK or beyond, the ops team arrange support and recovery via their national recovery network. The peace of mind is always there for us and our clients that should the worst happen, one phone call is all it takes to be in very good hands to be moving again!
