Car Recovery Near Me, Cornwall Wide and Open 24/7

If you have just searched for recovery near you in Cornwall, this is the number to ring. Local drivers, local dispatch, and a clear price before anyone sets off.

We are based at Pool near Redruth, right on the A30, which is why we come up for people searching for car recovery near them across most of Cornwall. There is no national call centre in the middle. You ring the number at the top of this page, you speak to the people who send the truck, and you get told what it will cost before we move.

Tell us the road and the nearest junction, village or landmark and we will find you. A what3words location or a dropped pin from your phone is ideal when you are on a lane with no house numbers or on a stretch of the A30 between junctions. If your signal is poor, a text with your location works too.

We cover Redruth, Camborne, Truro, Falmouth, Helston, Penzance, Hayle, St Ives, Newquay, St Austell, Bodmin, Launceston and Bude, along with the A30 and A38 corridors and the villages and single track lanes in between. Cornwall is a long county, so response time depends on where you are, but we always tell you honestly how long we will be rather than leaving you guessing.

You do not need breakdown cover or a membership to use us. Plenty of our work is people whose cover has run out, people whose provider has quoted a four hour wait, and visitors who have broken down hundreds of miles from home and have no idea who to call.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I tell you where I am?

The nearest junction, village or pub name is usually enough. If you are on an unmarked lane, a what3words location or a pin dropped in your maps app is the fastest way. If your signal is weak, text it to us and we will call you back.

How quickly can you reach me?

It depends where you are and what time it is. From our Pool base near Redruth we typically reach Truro, Camborne and Hayle within 20 to 40 minutes, with the far east and far west of the county taking longer. We tell you a realistic time on the call.

Do I need breakdown cover to call you?

No. We work pay as you go with a clear quote before we dispatch. No AA, RAC or Green Flag membership is required.

What should I do while I wait on a main road?

Get as far left as you safely can, put your hazards on, and if you are on a dual carriageway get everyone out and behind the barrier on the verge side. Do not stand between the vehicle and moving traffic.

Can you take my car to a garage of my choice?

Yes. We recover to your home, your own garage, a main dealer, your holiday accommodation or wherever suits you best.

Do you cover single track lanes and farm tracks?

Yes. A lot of Cornwall is narrow lanes with no turning space, so we choose the right truck for the access when you describe where you are.
