A car that loses power, overheats, or suffers a blowout on a fast-moving carriageway needs to be cleared off the hard shoulder quickly and safely.

Moderate traffic with peaks at the M1 and M62 interchanges; generally free-flowing outside of rush hours. Wherever your car stops along that route, our nearest car recovery driver is dispatched from Doncaster to reach you fast.

Car Breakdown Recovery at the M18's breakdown hotspots

These are the stretches of the M18 where we are called out most often, and where we keep car recovery resources close at hand:

Junction 1 (M1 interchange at Thurcroft), heavy freight traffic merging from the M1 southbound and M18 northbound creates congestion and sudden braking; vehicles that have been running hard on the M1 from the south often show cooling system stress here
Junctions 5-6 (Hatfield to Thorne, Humberhead Levels), the most exposed and windswept section of the M18; crosswind incidents for high-sided HGVs peak during autumn and winter storms; fog in the low-lying marshland causes chain-reaction incidents
Junction 2 (A1(M) interchange at Wadworth), the convergence of A1(M) long-distance traffic with M18 freight creates complex weaving patterns; tyre blowouts from HGVs changing lanes under pressure are common

Customer Reviews

What Our Customers Say

Broke down at 11pm on the M25 near the Wisley interchange. Called these guys and they had a recovery truck with me in under 40 minutes. Professional, friendly, and the price was exactly what they quoted on the phone. Genuinely saved my night.

Vehicle Towing

Ran out of diesel like an idiot between Luton and Milton Keynes on the M1. Pulled onto the hard shoulder near Junction 10 and called them. They delivered 10 litres of diesel within the hour and even checked my tyre pressures while they were there. No judgement, just helpful.

My van broke down fully loaded heading north on the M6 past Stoke. Other companies quoted ridiculous prices or said they could not do it until morning. These guys came out at 2am with a flatbed and sorted everything. Will not use anyone else.
