Car Recovery in the City of London

Car broken down in the City? Call 020 8088 4048. EC1 to EC4 is part of our own drivers' London patch, and we come into the Square Mile at any hour. We aim to reach you within 15 to 45 minutes. Towing starts at £85, a battery boost at £70 and a replacement tyre at £130.

Driving and stopping in the Square Mile

  • Charges. Both the Congestion Charge and the ULEZ cover the City; any charge for the trip you made in is still yours to pay.
  • Restricted streets. Some streets and junctions are closed to private cars at busy times, including Bank during the working day, so the truck may need to come in by a different route. Tell us the nearest building or street corner.
  • Car parks. Many cars break down in office or public car parks. Say which floor the car is on and what headroom the entrance allows, so we bring a suitable truck.
  • Evenings and weekends. The streets are much quieter, and recovery is usually simpler.

Areas

Aldgate, Fenchurch Street, Tower Hill, Monument, Bank, Moorgate, Liverpool Street, the Barbican, Smithfield, Farringdon, Holborn Circus, Fleet Street, Blackfriars and St Paul's.

Late at night, a car that won't start after a long day in a City car park is one of our most common call-outs here. Many car parks lock their exits overnight, so check closing times when you call.

Frequently asked questions

Can you recover a car from Holborn?

Yes. Holborn is split between the City and Camden; we cover both. Recovery is from £85.

Can you get a truck into Aldgate or Fenchurch Street during the day?

Yes, though some streets are restricted at busy times. We'll plan the route when you call.

Does your price cover the Congestion Charge?

No. Our quote is for the recovery; what you owe TfL for driving in is a separate matter.

Can you come out on a Sunday morning?

Yes. The phone is answered round the clock, seven days a week, and quiet weekend streets usually make the job quicker.
