We’re available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, so there’s always a real person ready to take your call and send help straight to you. One quick phone call is all it takes – tell us where you are and what’s happened, and we’ll dispatch the nearest available recovery team right away.
How to Reach Us Fast
The quickest, most reliable way to get help is to phone us directly. We answer day and night, and there’s no automated queue to sit through – just speak to us, give us your location and we’ll be on our way. Whether you’ve broken down on a quiet residential street, in a multi-storey car park or on a busy stretch of the M25, we’ll come to you.
What to Tell Us When You Call
The more you can tell us up front, the faster we can find you and send the right help. When you call, please have the following ready:
- Your exact location – the street name and postcode, the nearest junction or landmark, or your what3words location if you have the app. On a motorway, read out the nearest marker post number.
- Your vehicle make, model and colour – so our driver can spot you quickly when they arrive.
- What happened – a flat battery, a puncture, an accident, a warning light, the engine cutting out, or simply “it won’t start”.
- Whether the car starts or can roll – this tells us what equipment to bring and how we’ll load it.
- Whether you’re somewhere safe – let us know if you’re in a live traffic lane or anywhere that feels unsafe, so we can prioritise reaching you.

Where We Operate
We cover the whole of Greater London and the surrounding motorway network. That means West, North, East, South and Central London, every London borough, and the full M25 orbital. Wherever you’ve come to a stop – a side street in Camden, a car park in Croydon, the A406 North Circular or a slip road off the M25 – we’ll find you and get you moving again.
Waiting Safely at the Roadside
While you wait for us to arrive, your safety comes first. A few simple steps keep you out of harm’s way:
- Switch on your hazard warning lights so other drivers can see you clearly, especially in poor light or bad weather.
- Get to a safe place – if you can, move away from moving traffic rather than staying in the car.
- On a motorway, stand behind the safety barrier and well away from the carriageway while you wait. Take any passengers and pets with you.
- Never stop in a hard shoulder lane showing a red X on a smart motorway – that lane is closed and is no longer a safe place to be.
When you’re safe, call us on 0750 880 0905 and stay on the line if you need to – we’ll talk you through what to do until our recovery team reaches you.
