What to know
Membership vs pay-on-use
National clubs and insurer extras cover many call-outs. Pay-on-use local recovery in Tenby can be faster for short tows — get the total price, not only the call-out.
What to tell them
Exact location, vehicle size (EV? van?), whether it rolls, and whether you need a garage door appointment. EVs may need specialist kit.
