Arrival times
Why we quote a rangeand not a promise
A recovery ETA depends on three things nobody can see from a desk: where the nearest available truck actually is, what the traffic is doing between there and you, and whether the job before yours runs over. Anyone quoting an exact minute is guessing.
So we tell you the range we believe, and we ring you if it changes. If the nearest unit is already out on a long run and we genuinely cannot reach you quickly, we say so on the call — you deserve the chance to try someone else rather than wait on a maybe.
Live carriageway and hard shoulder jobs are prioritised over driveway and car park jobs. That is not favouritism; it is where the actual danger is.
Not on the list?
Call anyway. 109 cities and counties are listed here, but the country does not stop at a list — we quote booked transport anywhere in the UK, and recovery wherever a unit is free. The worst that happens is we point you at someone closer.
