Vehicle Recovery
Whether it's a car that won't move, a van off the road or an accident-damaged vehicle, Hard Shoulder finds the nearest available recovery truck and gets your vehicle where it needs to go — 24 hours a day, anywhere in the UK.

Fully loaded transport for damaged, seized or low-clearance vehicles.
Spec-lift towing for rolling vehicles over short and medium distances.
Heavier-capacity recovery for light commercials, fleets and work vans.
Stuck in mud, snow or a ditch — winch-equipped trucks pull you clear.

Yes. The network includes van recovery and commercial vehicle recovery operators with heavier-capacity equipment for light commercials and larger vehicles.

You choose the destination — home, your own garage or a dealership — and the mileage is included in the quote you approve before the driver sets off.
