Breakdown Recovery & Jump Start Services When You Need Help Getting Back on the Road
Broken down and unable to continue? We provide breakdown recovery, vehicle recovery and mobile jump start services for cars, vans and light commercial vehicles. We can collect vehicles from homes, workplaces, car parks, roadsides and safe locations and transport them to a garage, home, dealership or another agreed destination.
If your vehicle has a flat battery and can safely be started on site, we can provide a professional mobile jump start. If the problem cannot be resolved at the roadside, our vehicle recovery service can arrange transport instead.
Breakdown recovery when your vehicle cannot continue
A breakdown can happen anywhere — at home, outside work, in a car park or while travelling between towns. Our breakdown recovery service is designed to move your vehicle safely when a jump start or roadside solution is not enough.
We recover cars, vans and light commercial vehicles and can transport vehicles to garages, homes, dealerships, bodyshops, storage locations and other agreed destinations.
We also handle arranged vehicle collections and deliveries, including vehicles purchased through Copart, BCA and other vehicle remarketing or auction services.
Breakdown recovery services
We provide recovery for a range of roadside and vehicle transport situations, from a car that has stopped running to vehicles that need collecting and delivering after purchase, repair or breakdown.
Breakdown Recovery
Vehicle recovery when your car or van cannot continue safely or under its own power.
Roadside Recovery
Recovery from homes, workplaces, car parks and safe roadside locations.
Motorway Recovery
Recovery from suitable safe locations around major routes including the M1 and M25.
Garage Recovery
Move your vehicle from the breakdown location to a local or preferred garage.
Copart Recovery
Vehicle collection and transport from Copart locations to homes, garages, bodyshops and other destinations.
BCA Collection & Delivery
Collection and delivery of vehicles purchased through BCA, including running and non-running vehicles where suitable.
Jump start or full vehicle recovery?
Not every breakdown requires a recovery truck. If your vehicle has simply suffered a flat 12V battery and is suitable for a roadside boost, our mobile jump start service may get you moving again.
If the vehicle has a mechanical fault, electrical problem, damaged wheel, accident damage or another issue that prevents it from continuing, breakdown recovery may be the appropriate option.
- Flat battery and vehicle will not start
- Engine or mechanical failure
- Electrical or starting problems
- Vehicle unable to continue after a breakdown
- Recovery to a garage or home
- Copart and BCA vehicle collection
- Vehicle transport between agreed locations
Vehicle recovery from homes, roadsides, car parks and workplaces
Your vehicle does not have to be on a driveway to arrange recovery. We can discuss recovery from a range of locations where access and safety allow.
Home
Recover a vehicle from your driveway or residential location when it cannot be driven.
Workplace
Vehicle stopped at work? We can discuss collection and transport to an agreed destination.
Car Parks
Recovery from supermarkets, retail parks, station car parks and other accessible locations.
Roadside
Recovery from a safe roadside location where access is suitable for the recovery vehicle.
Garage Drop-Off
Transport your vehicle to a garage, mechanic, dealership or bodyshop.
Home Delivery
Arrange vehicle transport from an auction, collection point, garage or other agreed location.
Copart, BCA and vehicle collection & delivery
We also provide arranged vehicle collection and delivery for customers who need a vehicle transported rather than recovered from a live breakdown.
This can include vehicles purchased through Copart, BCA and other vehicle sources. Depending on the vehicle and collection location, we can discuss transport for running cars, non-runners, damaged vehicles and project vehicles.
Vehicles can be delivered to a home, garage, dealership, bodyshop, storage facility or another agreed destination.
How our breakdown recovery service works
- Call or WhatsApp your current location and vehicle details.
- Tell us what has happened and whether the vehicle can move under its own power.
- Provide the destination, such as a garage, home, dealership or other agreed location.
- We discuss availability, recovery requirements and the price before arranging collection.
- We attend the agreed location and load or recover the vehicle where access and safety allow.
- Your vehicle is transported to the agreed destination.
When a mobile jump start may be enough
If your vehicle will not start because of a flat or weak 12V battery, a professional jump start service may get you moving without needing full recovery.
- Rapid clicking when attempting to start
- Dim dashboard or interior lights
- Vehicle has been left unused and the battery has gone flat
- Battery is too weak to crank the engine
- Hybrid or EV showing a suitable 12V battery warning
- Vehicle starts with a professional boost and is otherwise suitable to drive
If the vehicle still will not start after a suitable battery boost, or there is another mechanical or electrical fault, we can discuss vehicle recovery to a suitable destination.
Common questions about breakdown recovery
Can you recover my car to a garage?
Yes. We can discuss recovery from your breakdown location to a garage, home, dealership, bodyshop or another agreed destination.
Do you provide motorway breakdown recovery?
We can discuss recovery from suitable safe locations around major routes including the M1 and M25. If you are in immediate danger on a live carriageway, contact emergency services or National Highways first.
Can you collect vehicles from Copart?
Yes. We provide arranged Copart vehicle collection and transport to homes, garages, bodyshops, dealerships and other agreed destinations, subject to access and vehicle condition.
Do you collect vehicles from BCA?
Yes. We can discuss BCA collection and delivery for suitable running, non-running or damaged vehicles. Tell us the collection centre, vehicle condition and delivery address when requesting a quote.
Can you recover a non-running vehicle?
We can discuss recovery of non-running vehicles. Tell us whether the vehicle rolls, steers and can be accessed by the recovery vehicle so we can assess the collection requirements.
Do you also provide jump starts?
Yes. Jump starts remain part of our mobile roadside assistance service. If a flat battery is the problem and the vehicle is suitable for a boost, we can attempt to get it started on site.
What information should I send on WhatsApp?
Send your live location or postcode, vehicle make and model, registration if available, what has happened, whether the vehicle starts or moves, and where you need it recovered to.
Breakdown recovery and jump start safety
If you break down on a dangerous or high-speed road, safety comes first. Move to a safe location if possible, switch on hazard lights and keep passengers away from moving traffic.
