Servicing Stop is a UK-based car servicing and MOT platform that connects drivers with a nationwide network of trusted independent garages. Rather than operating its own physical garages, Servicing Stop acts as a booking broker: you book online, and we liaise with a trusted local garage to carry out the work on our behalf. The service includes free collection from your home or workplace, with your car returned to you the same day once complete.
Booking and getting your car serviced through Servicing Stop is simple:
  1. Get a quote. Enter your vehicle registration and postcode at servicingstop.co.uk to receive an instant, fixed price quote.
  2. Book online. Choose your service type and a date that suits you.
  3. Free collection. A driver collects your car from your home or workplace on the day, typically between 8am and 10am.
  4. Service carried out. Your car is taken to one of our local garages.
  5. Approval for any extras. If anything additional is identified, we will contact you before any further work is carried out.
  6. Payment and return. Once the service is complete, you will be notified, you pay securely online, and your car is returned to you the same day, usually between 4pm and 6pm. Your service book is stamped or your Digital Service Record (DSR) is updated where possible.
