Accident Recovery on the M26

Wherever your vehicle stops along that route, our nearest accident recovery driver is dispatched from Maidstone to reach you fast.

Accident Recovery at the M26's breakdown hotspots

These are the stretches of the M26 where we are called out most often, and where we keep accident recovery resources close at hand:

Full length during Operation Stack/Brock events, the motorway is converted to a lorry holding area during Channel disruption; HGVs that have been idling for hours suffer battery drain, fuel starvation, and cooling system failures; recovery access becomes extremely difficult through stationary traffic

Junction 2A (M25 connection at Sevenoaks), the merge with M25 traffic heading for Kent creates congestion on a road not designed for such volumes; overheating from stop-start queuing on the approach to the M25

Central exposed section near Kemsing, the open farmland between the North Downs and the Greensand Ridge offers no shelter from crosswinds; high-sided vehicles are vulnerable, and the road's relatively low traffic volume means incidents can go unnoticed longer
