Common Questions About Catalytic Converter Theft

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

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.

What if I need to go somewhere else while my car is recovered?

We focus on recovering your vehicle safely. We can drop you at the same destination as your car, or you can arrange separate transport — we're flexible.

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 Manchester are no problem.

Can you recover any type of vehicle?

Cars, vans, SUVs, motorcycles, and light commercial vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes. Automatic, manual, electric, hybrid — we handle them all.
