Yes. Our control team and recovery drivers operate around the clock — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and bank holidays. Whenever you call, you’ll reach a real person ready to help.

Response time depends on your location, local conditions, and ferry or channel availability. Within the UK, we typically arrive within 30–60 minutes. For European recoveries, we provide an estimated time of arrival (ETA) when you call and keep you updated until the recovery team reaches you.

Pricing is based on your vehicle type, pickup location, distance to the UK, and any additional services (such as storage or passenger transport). We’ll give a clear quote before dispatch — no hidden fees. Payment can be made by card, bank transfer, or cash upon completion.

For local UK recoveries, payment is usually made upon completion. For long-distance or European transport, a partial deposit may be required before the journey begins to secure the recovery slot. Full payment is made once the service is complete or upon delivery.

We accept all major debit and credit cards, secure bank transfers, and cash payments. You can also request a digital invoice or payment link for convenience and record-keeping.

If you cancel before our driver has been dispatched, there’s no charge. Once the recovery has been arranged and the driver is en route, a small fee may apply to cover travel costs. We always aim to be fair and transparent about any applicable charges.
