- Fixed price upfront
What heavy & specialist actually involves
Some jobs are not about towing capacity, they are about access, angles and knowing what a vehicle will do when it starts to move. Heavy and specialist recovery covers everything a standard flatbed cannot: vehicles over 3.5 tonnes, machinery, and anything that has left the road entirely.
Every heavy job is quoted individually after we understand the vehicle, the terrain and the access — because a horsebox in a wet field and an HGV on a hard shoulder are different problems with different equipment.
How we do it properly
- Every heavy job surveyed and quoted individually before we commit
- Correct anchor points and matting — no dragging over verges
- Experienced working under police and Highways direction
- Fully insured for heavy recovery and plant movement
Every situation
this covers
HGV and rigid recovery

Horseboxes and motorhomes

Off-road extraction

Plant and machinery moves
Diggers, dumpers, telehandlers and site equipment moved between sites on low-loaders.
Overturned and off-carriageway
Righting and recovering vehicles that have left the road, working with police and Highways on closures.
Site and yard shunting
Moving immobile vehicles and trailers around depots, compounds and auction yards.
