Broadford, in practical terms
A missing key changes the Broadford visit.
Broadford sits on the main route between the Skye Bridge and Portree. A useful booking starts with the exact place your car is parked: Broadford village, accommodation in the surrounding area, or a roadside location on your onward journey. A vehicle registration helps identify the car, but the tyre size still needs to be checked.
The approach to your vehicle.
- On the A87, give your direction of travel rather than simply saying you are near Broadford.
- If you are heading towards Torrin or Elgol, tell us how far along that route you have travelled.
- For a business or accommodation car park, provide permission and explain any height or access restrictions.
What this service involves.
A missing locking wheel nut key can prevent a tyre change from going ahead. Let the booking team know before a fitter travels. Photos of the wheel, locking nut and any damaged key help assess whether assistance can be arranged. Availability of equipment and the condition of the wheel fixing determine the next step; removal is not promised for every vehicle.

No. The vehicle, nut design, condition and available equipment must be assessed. The team will explain whether assistance can be offered and any limitations before agreeing the job.
Is locking wheel nut assistance included in fitting?
It should not be assumed to be included. Tell the team before booking so any additional work, availability and price can be discussed.
