Carbost, in practical terms
Check the fixing before a Carbost visit.
Carbost and the wider Minginish area bring together residential journeys, accommodation stays and visits into the west of Skye. Please distinguish Carbost village from the destination you were travelling towards. If your vehicle is already at a property or car park, send that actual location rather than the nearest familiar landmark.
The approach to your vehicle.
- Include the final approach to your accommodation, especially if the entrance is away from the main road.
- A visitor car park needs the operator's permission and enough space for the fitter to work.
- Tell us if the affected tyre has been driven on while flat; this helps the fitter assess the next step.
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.
