It all adds up to consistent demand for reliable breakdown recovery.

Our recovery trucks carry heavy-duty winch cables rated to 5 tonnes, a full set of securing straps and wheel chocks, towing brackets for all common vehicles, and emergency lighting for safe roadside operations. Every truck is equipped with a first aid kit and fire extinguisher.
