Common Questions About Long Distance Recovery

We get asked these every day — here are the honest answers.

Is there a call-out fee on top of the price?

No. The price we quote includes everything — call-out, loading, transport, and delivery. One fixed price, no surprises when the driver arrives.

What about the journey time once you arrive?

Loading takes around 10–15 minutes for most cars. Then it's a direct drive to your drop-off — no detours, no shared loads.

Can you recover a left-hand-drive vehicle?

Yes. Flatbed loading is the same regardless of driving side, so LHD imports, ex-military or European vehicles in Luton are no problem.

How long will you take to reach me?

We aim for the fastest possible response across Luton. We'll give you an honest ETA before dispatch — not a vague 'within 2 hours'. Most jobs we're there well within the hour.
