Frequently Asked Questions

How do I tell you my exact location on the motorway?
You can give us the numbers from the nearest blue driver location signs / marker posts on the verge, mention the junction numbers you are between, or send your live WhatsApp / what3words location directly to our team.
What happens if my electric vehicle (EV) runs out of battery on the motorway?
We use full flatbed tilt-and-slide recovery trucks. EVs cannot be towed with wheels rolling without motor damage, so we lift the entire vehicle onto the flatbed and transport it safely to the nearest charging station or your home.
Can you recover commercial vans with tools or cargo on board?
Yes, our heavy-duty recovery trucks easily handle loaded light commercial vans (up to 3.5 tonnes) and transport them securely without requiring you to unload cargo.
