Peterborough is where most of our jobs start. The parkways move fast and have few safe places to stop, the A1(M) runs past the west of the city, and the A47 Soke Parkway carries traffic from the A1 out to Wisbech and King’s Lynn. We recover from all of it, plus the estates and car parks in between.
Districts we cover
City Centre, Hampton, Hampton Vale and Hampton Gardens, Orton Malborne, Orton Goldhay and Orton Southgate, Bretton, Werrington, Gunthorpe, Paston, Walton, Dogsthorpe, Millfield, Eastfield, Fengate, Stanground, Woodston, Fletton, Longthorpe, Netherton, Ravensthorpe, Eye and Yaxley.

FAQ
Straight answers
How much is car recovery in Peterborough?
Local recovery in Peterborough starts from £125. Things that change it: the distance to the drop-off, a non-rolling car, or a low multi-storey that needs a smaller truck. You get the full price on the call.
Can you get a car out of a multi-storey car park?
Yes. Tell us which car park and floor so we send a truck that fits under the barrier height, or the driver uses skates to move the car to a level where it can be loaded.
I have broken down on the A1(M) near Peterborough. What should I do?
Pull onto the hard shoulder or into a lay-by, put the hazards on, and get everyone out on the verge side and behind the barrier. Then call us with the junction number and direction. If you cannot get off the live lane, call 999.
