24/7 recovery in and around Ulsta
Ulsta sits in the northern part of Shetland Islands; the nearest sizeable centres are Aberdeen (~234 mi south), Dundee (~286 mi south), Edinburgh (~323 mi south); there is no motorway close by, so we run in on the A-roads and local routes.
Because of its more rural location and distance from the motorway network, a realistic arrival window for Ulsta is ~40–75 min once a truck is dispatched.
We cover Ulsta and the roads out toward Copister (~1 mi south-east), Setter (~1 mi north-west), Hamnavoe (~2 mi east), West Yell (~2 mi north), Houlland (~2 mi east), so help is rarely far from wherever you have stopped — roadside, car park, driveway or private land.
