Car Breakdown Recovery on the M5
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. Our drivers carry diagnostic kit and jump packs for a roadside fix where one is possible, and a flatbed when the car needs to go to a garage, your home, or a dealership.
The M5 runs 161 miles from West Bromwich (M6) to Exeter through West Midlands, Worcestershire, Gloucestershire, Somerset, with 31 junctions and service stations at Frankley, Strensham, Michaelwood and more. Summer Saturdays see extreme congestion southbound between Bristol and Exeter, often with delays of over an hour; the so-called 'M5 holiday crush' is a fixture of UK motoring. Wherever your car stops along that route, our nearest car recovery driver is dispatched from Bristol to reach you fast.

M5 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.”
