Stockport is seven miles south-east of Manchester city centre, just over a 30-minute drive. Be careful on the M60 slip road; it has been named one of the most dangerous in the UK. Stockport bus station was one of the largest and busiest in Greater Manchester. It was replaced by Stockport interchange in 2024. Keep an eye out for Stockport viaduct while driving through town - it was built in 1840 using 11 million bricks.

A Clean Air Zone (CAZ) operates in Stockport to improve air quality and specifically reduce public exposure to nitrogen dioxide, a pollutant produced by traditional combustion engines. This goal is achieved by encouraging the use of cleaner vehicles, such as EVs, and restricting high-pollution vehicles. Many CAZs charge drivers for entering them, though some are non-charging. Before driving in Stockport, it's worth checking online whether you will have to pay for driving through the zone.

Car accident repair services ensure your car is repaired to the highest standard without compromising safety. Common types of damage following an accident are a missing/damaged bumper, cracked windscreen, car frame damage, scratches and disjointed doors. As such, repairs often include dent removal, body repairs, scratch removal, bumper repair and paintwork.

Minor crash repairs may involve purely cosmetic fixes. On the other hand, if your car sustains severe damage, the repair cost of which your insurance company deems high compared to the value of the vehicle, it may be written off. Category C and D (old salvage code) and N and S (new salvage code) write-offs can still legally be repaired, although the cost of doing so is usually high, and the value of the car will be diminished.

It isn't a good idea to do a car damage repair job if you're not a trained mechanic; instead, it's best to book an authorised car accident repair centre.
