Vehicle Recovery
When a vehicle can't be driven or safely towed, AHS Recovery provides full vehicle recovery, loading and transporting it to wherever it needs to go.
About This Service
Some vehicles simply can't be towed safely — whether due to mechanical failure, a locked steering wheel, or damage from an incident. Our vehicle recovery service uses loading equipment to move your vehicle without relying on its own wheels or power.
We keep a fleet that ranges from 4x4 recovery trailers to 18-tonne recovery lorries, giving us the flexibility to handle different vehicles and recovery situations, from a small hatchback to a larger commercial vehicle.

Common Questions
What's the difference between vehicle recovery and towing?expand_more
Towing generally means pulling a vehicle on its wheels, while vehicle recovery can include loading a vehicle fully onto a trailer or recovery lorry, which is often safer for vehicles that can't be towed conventionally.
What vehicles can you recover?expand_more
We recover cars, vans and light commercial vehicles, using a fleet ranging from 4x4 recovery trailers to 18-tonne recovery lorries, so we can match the right vehicle to the job.
My vehicle won't move at all — can you still recover it?expand_more
In most cases, yes. If your vehicle is seized, has no power, or can't be safely towed, we can use loading equipment to recover it without needing to move it under its own power.
Do you recover vehicles from private land, like a driveway or field?expand_more
In many cases yes, depending on access. Let us know the situation when you call, including any access restrictions, so we can bring the right equipment.
