MIDHURST ENGINEERING & MOTOR CO.LTD

We work as part of the network of breakdown specialists to almost all of the motoring clubs and insurance companies in the UK and also to Sussex Police under contract through AADL. We have invested heavily in technology to ensure first-class communication channels are available to rapidly deploy rescue vehicles to the scene of any incident. Operating a complete range of modern recovery vehicles from bases in Midhurst and Petersfield, our fleet currently includes tilt and slide bed transporters, spectacle lifts and a fully equipped accident recovery unit complete with 16.5 tonne metre lorry loader crane and damage free lifting cradle. Six vehicles of our recovery fleet are fitted with satellite navigation equipment and in-cab computer terminals synchronized with control room information to avoid distracting voice messages to the driver. Midhurst Engineering is committed to the highest standards of service and customer satisfaction with feedback indicating these goals are being achieved.

The company is ISO 9001-2000 compliant and PAS 43 certified. We continue to strive to implement best practice and to adhere to recovery industry guidelines, both legal and advisory. This is a continuing process with the company currently holding a number of accreditations and affiliations. We have successfully retained our contract to supply services to Sussex Police for the immediate future and consequently upgraded our front line Accident Unit.

The Company provides to the Police force separate exclusive under cover facilities for forensic vehicle examination and crash investigations. We were able to take the Industry forward, by sponsoring and participating in the filming of a roadside and recovery safe working procedures video, "Life On The Edge 6", produced in 2003 by the Institute of Vehicle Recovery in conjunction with all the main Motoring Organisations. The film is now used as part of structured training sessions and we are proud of our contribution to this worthy project.
