HGV Recovery on the M3
Heavy vehicle incidents need heavy kit, rotators, heavy underlift units, and full traffic management. Our HGV teams recover rigids, artics and drawbar combinations up to 44 tonnes, handle cargo transfer where a load cannot be moved intact, and coordinate with National Highways to clear the carriageway safely.
The M3 runs 59 miles from Sunbury-on-Thames to Southampton through Surrey, Hampshire, with 14 junctions and service stations at Fleet, Winchester (Moto). Busiest around Junction 2 (M25 interchange) and between Junctions 9 and 14 on cruise ship departure days and summer weekends. Wherever your lorry stops along that route, our nearest HGV recovery driver is dispatched from Basingstoke to reach you fast.

M3 recovery overviewWhat 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.”
“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.”
