When a car breaks down it ruins your day. When a van breaks down it can cost you a day's wages, a missed delivery slot and an unhappy customer. That's why our van recovery service is built around getting you moving again fast — not leaving you at the roadside waiting for a contractor from another county.
Our recovery trucks are based on Allens Croft Road in Kings Heath, so we reach most of Birmingham quickly. We check what's wrong, fix it at the roadside if we can, and if we can't, we load your van and take it to your garage, your yard, your home or a main dealer — with your tools and stock kept inside and secured.
From small panel vans to long-wheelbase high-roof vans, we recover the light commercial vehicles Birmingham's trades and delivery drivers rely on every day.
Ford Transit Connect and Courier, VW Caddy, Citroën Berlingo, Peugeot Partner, Vauxhall Combo, Renault Kangoo and similar.
Ford Transit Custom, VW Transporter, Vauxhall Vivaro, Renault Trafic, Toyota Proace, Mercedes Vito and similar.
Ford Transit, Mercedes Sprinter, VW Crafter, Renault Master, Vauxhall Movano, Iveco Daily and Peugeot Boxer — standard and high roof.
Light tippers and dropside vans used by builders and landscapers. Tell us the body type when you call.
Electric and hybrid vans recovered on a flatbed with the wheels off the road, as most manufacturers require.

Not sure if we can take your van? Call 07404 750053 with the make, model and roughly what's loaded — we'll tell you straight away.
Vans cover big mileage, carry heavy loads and do a lot of short stop-start trips — all of which wear certain parts faster than in a car. These are the faults we see most often on Birmingham van recovery jobs:
Many van breakdowns are a flat battery, a puncture or a simple electrical fault. We carry jump packs and basic tools, so we'll try to get you going at the roadside first. If it needs a garage, we recover it — and the price was already agreed either way.
Your van is your income. We treat every van recovery as urgent, because for you it is.
