HGV Recovery on the M40
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 M40 runs 89 miles from Denham (A40/M25) to Solihull (M42) through Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire, West Midlands, with 16 junctions and service stations at Beaconsfield, Oxford (Moto), Cherwell Valley and more. Peak delays at the M25 interchange (J1A) and in both directions between Junctions 15 and 16 during Birmingham commuter hours. Wherever your lorry stops along that route, our nearest HGV recovery driver is dispatched from Banbury to reach you fast.

M40 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.”
