Breakdown recovery when your vehicle cannot continue safely.
For a breakdown, mechanical failure, tyre damage or a vehicle that needs transporting, our recovery service can move cars and vans from suitable roadside and other locations. Tell us where the vehicle is and where it needs to go.
The information that helps us plan the recovery.
- Vehicle registration, make and model.
- Your exact collection location.
- Whether the vehicle rolls, steers and can be accessed.
- What has happened and any visible damage.
- Your preferred destination, if already known.
Those details help avoid sending unsuitable equipment and give the team a clearer picture before arrival.
Recovery can be the first step, not the last.
If the vehicle needs workshop diagnosis or repair, 247 Auto Centre provides a connected route into servicing, diagnostics and repairs rather than leaving you to arrange everything again.
