After the work
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
Before you drop the car off
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
