What are the advantages of calling a mobile truck service?

You don’t waste cash on towing

A tow in Germany will hit you for €300-€1,000, not counting the time you lose. We fix most issues right where the truck stopped. You only pay for the service call and the mechanic’s labor.

Quick parts delivery when you need it

You don’t need to look for a parts store in a foreign country. We keep the most common truck parts in stock (belts, airbags, filters, fittings). If something rare is needed, we find it and deliver it express.

Support during police and BAG inspections

If the road police (Polizei) or transport inspectors stop by, our mechanic will help communicate in German and confirm that the repair is already underway.

Transparent pricing for truck services — no hidden charges, no last-minute add-ons.

You get the call-out rate right over the phone. We lock in the labor cost before we start. Cards, cash, or bank transfer – whatever works for you.

Service anywhere in Europe

We cover Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Austria – and pretty much the rest of the EU.

Our Services

Truck breakdowns are common-especially during long-distance routes. Even on Germany's well-maintained highways, drivers often need roadside support: a blown tire, an electronic fault, or a transport inspection detecting a violation and issuing a stop order.

Computer diagnostics for trucks (LKW)

Dealer-level scanners for MAN, DAF, Volvo, Scania, Mercedes, Iveco, and Renault. We read and clear fault codes and perform component adaptations.

Mobile truck electrician

We track down wiring breaks, fix control modules, and replace starters and alternators. We restore lighting on both the trailer and the truck. We also install new 24V batteries.

Suspension and pneumatic system repair

Replacement of air springs, brake chambers, and leveling valves. Repair of air lines (Voss, Raufoss fittings). Replacement of hub bearings and complete hub assemblies.

Brake system repair

We free up and fix stuck calipers – Knorr-Bremse, Meritor, Wabco, Haldex. We swap brake chambers, rotors, and pads right where your truck is parked.

Emergency trailer repair

Maintenance of SAF, BPW, Schmitz, and Krone axles. Repair of sliding roofs, doors, landing legs, and lifting mechanisms.

Engine and fuel system repair

On-road diagnostics and repair of diesel truck engines. We fix issues with the fuel system, injectors, and high-pressure pumps. We work with MAN, DAF, Volvo, Scania, Mercedes, Renault, and Iveco.

Mobile tire service for trucks

We replace and repair truck and trailer tires right on the spot. We handle inflation, balancing, and mounting spare tires.

Engine and auxiliary components repair

Replacement of drive belts and tensioners. Fixing coolant and oil leaks, replacing hoses. Fuel filter replacement and fuel system bleeding when air is present.

Don’t jump straight to a tow! It might be a quick fix – a mobile tech can have you back on the road way faster.

When a mobile truck tech is the right call

Critical breakdowns on the road

Truck lost power, dropped on the airbags, or won't fire up after a break? We don't waste time guessing - we fix the problem right where you're parked.
We repair:
• Air system (air leaks, valves, airbags).
• Suspension & brakes (stuck calipers, hubs).
• Electrical issues (broken wiring, starters, alternators, ECU faults).

Accident recovery and repairs

Hit a guardrail or another trailer?
Damage often looks worse than it is — most issues can be repaired right on the spot without towing.
Our mobile mechanics will:

• Restore the lighting (headlights, tail lights).
• Secure loose bumpers and body parts.
• Repair damaged lines and pipelines.

Clearing stop orders from BAG or Polizei

Received a Weiterfahrverbot (driving prohibition) during an inspection?
German inspectors will not release a truck with worn tires, faulty AdBlue, a cracked wheel, or a torn curtain.

• We respond immediately and arrive at the inspection site.
• We fix all issues strictly according to the inspector’s protocol.
• We demonstrate the repaired condition to the officers so your documents are returned.

Mobile Truck Repair Service in Herten – wherever your truck breaks down

Herten carries more freight traffic than most people realise. The A43 and A2 are the main motorways serving Herten. The A42 also feeds into the network. The B225 runs through the city. On any given day, that’s thousands of trucks — and when one breaks down, it’s usually on one of those routes. We respond at Herten, Recklinghausen-Süd, Westerholt, Langenbochum, Scherlebeck, and Gelsenkirchen-Buer. In the city itself: Herten freight centre, Ewald-Gewerbepark, Herten-Süd, Scherlebeck, and Zeche Schlägel & Eisen Gelände.

What does mobile roadside assistance cost in Herten?

The final price depends on the distance, the type of vehicle and the time of service (day/night/weekend).

From real-world experience

It was just past midnight when a Scania R 450 pulled into a loading bay near Herten and simply refused to restart. The driver, hauling automotive parts for a logistics firm out of Dortmund, called LKWHelp24 and described the dead-crank situation. A mobile mechanic was on-site within 47 minutes. Diagnosis pointed straight to a failed starter motor solenoid. The mechanic carried a compatible unit in the van, which made the difference between a two-hour fix and a full overnight wait. With the replacement installed and the charging circuit tested, the Scania fired up cleanly. Herten sits at the heart of the Ruhr freight belt in North Rhine-Westphalia, surrounded by heavy industrial traffic from Recklinghausen, Marl and Herne. Breakdowns here can block loading schedules for several operators at once, so fast mobile response is not a luxury. The driver was back on the road before 03:00, delivery intact.

How quickly can a mobile mechanic reach me in Herten?+

In most cases the mechanic arrives within 45 to 60 minutes of your call. Herten is well-positioned in the Ruhr network, so response times are generally short. Call +49 160 575 3826 and the dispatcher will give you a firm ETA immediately.

What does a roadside call-out cost?+

Pricing depends on the fault, parts needed and time of call. LKWHelp24 gives you a clear estimate before work starts so there are no surprises. Night and weekend rates apply but there is no hidden surcharge for remote locations within the service area.

Which faults can be fixed without towing?+

Most common roadside faults are solvable on-site: starter and alternator replacement, air system leaks, AdBlue and SCR faults, EBS or ABS warning resets, coolant leaks, sensor replacements, fuel system issues and minor electrical faults including blown fuses and relay failures.

Which truck makes do you work on?+

LKWHelp24 covers all major European heavy trucks: MAN, Mercedes-Benz Actros, Scania R and S series, Volvo FH, DAF XF, Iveco S-Way and Renault T. Older fleet vehicles are also handled where parts are available.

Does the coverage extend to Recklinghausen and Marl?+

Yes. Recklinghausen, Marl, Herne, Gelsenkirchen, Gladbeck and Castrop-Rauxel are all within the regular service area around Herten. No extra zone fee applies within this radius.

Do you carry spare parts in the van?+

The mobile unit carries a stock of the most frequently needed parts: starters, alternators, air fittings, SCR sensors, fuses, relays and common belts. If a part is not on board, the mechanic sources it locally and returns quickly.

What payment methods are accepted?+

Bank transfer, major credit cards and cash are all accepted. Invoice customers with an account can be billed directly. Payment terms are confirmed before work begins.

Is the service available on nights and weekends?+
