Car Recovery — we come to you
Broken down or been in a knock? We recover cars, vans and light commercials to wherever you need them.
Car Recovery the straightforward way
When a vehicle can't be driven — a breakdown, a flat that can't be fixed roadside, a non-starter, or after a collision — it needs recovering safely. Local Transport provides car and light-vehicle recovery across the UK, moving your vehicle to your home, a garage of your choice, or another destination on a flatbed or spec-lift.
