Book a Service
How long will my vehicle service take?
Please plan to leave your vehicle with us for the full day. Most services take a few hours, but the exact time depends on the service package you choose. We don’t offer timed service slots - instead, you’ll need to drop your vehicle at your chosen Halfords garage at 8:30am or 11:30am. We’ll call you as soon as your car is ready to collect.
Can I book an MOT and Service together?
Yes, you can book an MOT and service at the same time. Our combined MOT and service packages make it easy to keep your car running smoothly. You can also get up to £44 off when you join Halfords Motoring Club for free. Browse our MOT and service options and book online.
Why MOT and service together?
Booking both at the same time means fewer trips and less hassle. We complete your MOT and service during the same appointment, helping you stay on top of essential maintenance. Plus, you can save up to £44 when you join Halfords Motoring Club for free.
Can I leave my car at the garage the day before my MOT and Service?
You can leave your car in the car park, but it’s at your own risk. Halfords Autocentres do not own the car parks, so we cannot control security or parking restrictions.
Which service does my car need?
You can find guidance on choosing the right service package for your vehicle here. This will help you understand the differences between Interim, Full and Major services so you can book the one that suits your car’s needs.
