Trucks and kit we run

Every vehicle is chosen for what it actually does best. No improvisation, no compromise on safety.

Modern recovery trucks & low-loader transport

Our recovery setup is built for everyday recovery and careful vehicle transport, including low cars, prestige vehicles, non-runners, vans, EVs and accident-damaged vehicles. We use modern trucks, a 3.5t low-loader trailer where needed, winches, soft straps and standard skates to load vehicles safely and correctly.

  • · Modern recovery trucks
  • · 3.5t low-loader trailer
  • · Low loading ramps
  • · Winch + standard skates
  • · Soft wheel straps

EV-ready handling (IVR Module 27b)

Full flatbed transport keeps EVs in correct mode with no driven wheels on the ground. Our EV-trained drivers carry isolation procedure, manufacturer-specific guidance and the right loading method for Tesla, BMW i, Polestar, Mercedes EQ, Audi e-tron, MG, BYD, Hyundai, Kia and the rest.

  • · IVR Module 27b accredited
  • · Full bed lift
  • · Manufacturer procedure
  • · Safe handling for damaged EVs

Recovery rigging — winches, standard skates & soft straps

Recovery is not just about the truck. For non-runners, locked vehicles and vehicles that will not roll freely, we use the right loading approach with winches, standard skates and soft straps. This helps us move vehicles carefully without unnecessary damage.

  • · High-capacity winches
  • · Standard skates
  • · Soft straps only
  • · Careful loading method

Scene-safety and lighting kit

Every truck is fitted with full IVR-compliant warning lights, traffic management cones, and on-scene illumination for night work. We position the vehicle to protect you and the casualty vehicle on the carriageway — standard procedure for live-lane and hard-shoulder work.

  • · IVR-compliant beacons
  • · Traffic management
  • · Hi-vis crew
  • · Scene lighting

Tracked, insured, maintained

Every vehicle is live-tracked, fully insured (£5M Public Liability, £150k Goods in Transit), operated under our O-Licence and serviced on a planned maintenance schedule. No surprises, no excuses.

  • · Live tracking
  • · £5M PL / £150k GIT
  • · Operator Licence
  • · Planned maintenance

Built around safety and the vehicle

Our recovery trucks and low-loader transport are set up so loading is gentle on the vehicle and safe for our crew. Soft straps over wheels, never over bodywork. Low loading ramps and low loading angles for prestige and low cars. Standard skates and winches for non-runners. EV-trained drivers and full IVR-compliant scene safety on every job.
