The first minutes after an accident matter most. Make sure everyone is unhurt, then get yourself and any passengers to a safe spot away from moving traffic. Switch on your hazard lights, and if it is safe to do so, set out a warning triangle. Swap names, numbers and insurance details with any other driver involved, and take a few photos of the vehicles and the scene while it is fresh. Then call us — we will talk you through the rest and be on our way with a fixed quote and a realistic ETA.

When we arrive we deal with the vehicle so you do not have to. Damaged and immobile cars need a gentler touch than a straightforward breakdown: where the wheels will not turn or the vehicle is on its side, we winch it carefully onto the truck rather than dragging it, load it securely, and sweep up any glass or debris left on the road. Our aim is always to limit further damage and clear the scene safely.

We can also work with your insurer. Keep your policy details handy when you call and we will provide clear paperwork for your claim, then deliver the vehicle to your chosen garage, approved repairer or home. Above all, we know you are not having a good day — so we are patient, straightforward and here to make the next step as easy as possible.

What this covers

  • Single-vehicle and multi-vehicle collisions
  • Cars, vans and motorcycles
  • Non-drivable and immobile vehicles, including seized wheels and rollovers
  • Careful winching, secure loading and debris clearance at the scene
  • Secure storage if your vehicle needs somewhere safe to go [CONFIRM]
  • Insurer liaison and clear paperwork for your claim

Accident Recovery — questions

What should I do at the scene before you arrive?
Check everyone is unhurt first, then get yourself and any passengers to a safe spot away from traffic. Switch on your hazard lights and, if it is safe, set out a warning triangle. Swap names, numbers and insurance details with any other driver, and take a few photos of the vehicles and the scene. Call us and we will talk you through the rest and give you a fixed quote and an ETA.
Do you work with insurance companies?
Yes. We can recover your vehicle following an accident and liaise with your insurer where needed, so keep your policy details to hand when you call. We provide clear paperwork for your claim and can deliver the vehicle to your chosen garage, repairer or home.
Can you recover a car that's badly damaged and won't roll?
Yes. Where a vehicle is seized, on its side or the wheels will not turn, we use a winch to load it carefully onto the truck rather than forcing it. We take our time to avoid causing further damage, clear any debris from the road and get the vehicle safely away.
