Your flatbed recovery: what to expect
Fast local help
First, call 07778 348703 with your location and tell us what has happened. Then we will confirm your price and current arrival estimate, so you know what to expect.
Careful loading
We take extra care when loading your vehicle. Our low-approach equipment helps with low cars, while skates and winching equipment help with vehicles that will not move.
Your chosen destination
Once your vehicle is secure, we take it to your chosen garage, home or another agreed location. You can also tell us about any access needs before we arrive.
Personal support
In addition, you speak directly to Ozzy’s Breakdown Recovery throughout the job. If your plans change, call us so we can help with the next step.
Your vehicle safely off the road and on its way
Our tilt-and-slide flatbed makes it possible to recover non-running cars and vehicles that need to be carried rather than towed on their wheels. We collect from roadside locations, homes, workplaces and garages.
Automatic cars, electric vehicles and four-wheel-drive vehicles can have particular recovery requirements. Tell us the model and what has happened, and we will arrange the right handling for your vehicle.
Careful loading for difficult pickups
A car that will not roll or has a damaged wheel needs extra care. Our winch, loading skates and recovery equipment help with difficult loading situations, including vehicles with locked wheels.
Let us know about wheel damage, low clearance or tight access when you call. We explain the recovery method and any equipment charges before agreeing the job.
To your chosen garage, home or destination
You choose where the vehicle needs to go. We can collect a broken-down car and deliver it to your garage, return it home or take it to another agreed destination.
For a van, tell us the model and whether it is loaded. Vehicle weight and access are checked before collection. See our van recovery and electric vehicle recovery services.
