HGV Recovery on the M9

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 M9 runs 36 miles from Edinburgh (M8/M90) to Dunblane through City of Edinburgh, West Lothian, Falkirk, Stirling, with 13 junctions and service stations at . Busiest during Edinburgh commuter peak hours between Junctions 1 and 3, with additional congestion near the M80 interchange at Stirling. Wherever your lorry stops along that route, our nearest HGV recovery driver is dispatched from Stirling to reach you fast.

Why lorrys need HGV recovery on the M9

Fog and low visibility in the Forth Valley, particularly near Falkirk
Tyre damage from road surface deterioration

HGV Recovery at the M9's breakdown hotspots

These are the stretches of the M9 where we are called out most often, and where we keep HGV recovery resources close at hand:

Junction 1 Newbridge interchange (M8/M90 merge), the complexity of three motorways converging creates weaving traffic and stop-start conditions; overheating and minor collisions from lane-change conflicts are common during Edinburgh rush hours

Junctions 3-5 (Linlithgow to Polmont corridor), heavy commuter traffic combined with the complete absence of service stations means fuel starvation is disproportionately common; drivers who missed services at Edinburgh often realise too late

Forth Valley fog zone between Junctions 5 and 8 (Polmont to Denny), the low-lying carse land traps cold air and generates dense fog in autumn and winter; sudden visibility drops cause chain-reaction incidents and leave stranded vehicles invisible to following traffic
