Accident & Collision Recovery Across the UK

Post-collision recovery handled calmly — vehicle cleared, debris swept, your car taken where it needs to go.

Damaged vehicle being recovered after a collision

What it is

After a collision the priority is getting people and vehicles out of danger. We clear the carriageway, sweep loose debris, and recover damaged and non-rolling vehicles onto the flatbed using winch and skates as needed. We can deliver to your insurer's approved repairer, your own bodyshop, or store the vehicle securely while you sort the claim.

What you get

  • Non-runners and locked-wheel vehicles winched on
  • Debris cleared from the carriageway
  • Delivery to your repairer or insurer's bodyshop
  • Secure storage available

Worth knowing: We are a recovery operator, not an accident management company. We will not sign you up to a credit hire agreement or take a referral fee for pointing you at a solicitor.

When you need it

Four situationsthis covers

If one of these sounds like your afternoon, this is the right page. If none of them do, ring anyway — we will work it out with you.

  1. The vehicle is blocking the road

    Getting the carriageway clear is the first priority, for you and for everyone behind you. We clear the vehicle, sweep the loose debris and get traffic moving.

  2. It will not roll or steer

    Bent steering, a collapsed wheel, damage that has locked something solid. Winch and skates deal with vehicles that no longer behave like vehicles.

  3. Your insurer needs it somewhere specific

    We can deliver straight to the approved repairer and invoice the insurer directly. Give us the claim reference on the call.

  4. You need time to think

    Secure storage while the claim is opened and the engineer decides. Terms agreed up front, not sprung on you later as a daily rate.

What it costs

One fixed price, agreed on the call

Priced on distance, time of day, whether the vehicle rolls and how accessible it is. No call-out fee and no hourly meter — and if the job turns out different from the description, we ring you before anything changes.

Questions about this job

Should I call you or the police first?

Emergency services first if anyone is hurt, the road is blocked, or a driver has left the scene. Then us. If the vehicle is safely off the carriageway and nobody is injured, ring us straight away.

Can you invoice my insurer instead of me?

Yes, for accident recovery. We will need the claim reference and the name of the appointed repairer. If the claim is still being opened, we can store the vehicle in the meantime.

Do you clear up the mess?

Loose debris, glass and trim, yes. Significant fluid spills we contain with granules and report — a large diesel or coolant spill on a live carriageway is a highways matter, not something to brush aside.

What if the car is a write-off?

It still needs moving, and it still needs to go where the insurer wants it. We can deliver to a salvage agent or hold it until they nominate somewhere.

More general questions are on the FAQ page.
