Motorway recovery
A1 recovery
BookRecovery provides 24/7 recovery along the entire A1 (London to the North East) — roughly 410 miles covering the A1 & A1(M). Broken down, had an accident or picked up a puncture on the hard shoulder? We get to you fast and move you and your vehicle to safety.
Fast help anywhere on the A1
The A1 runs through London, Peterborough, Newark, Doncaster, Leeds, Newcastle and the Scottish border. Our recovery operators know the junctions, service areas and emergency refuges along this corridor, so we can reach you quickly whatever the time of day or night and take your vehicle wherever it needs to go.
On a live motorway, safety comes first: get behind the barrier, well away from traffic, and call us the moment you are clear. We recover cars, vans, non-runners and accident-damaged vehicles from the A1, fully insured, and can take you to a home, garage or onward destination of your choice.

A1 recovery — common questions
Do you cover the whole A1?
Yes. We recover vehicles along the full length of the A1 (London to the North East), covering the A1 & A1(M) — around 410 miles. Tell us your nearest junction or marker post and we will come to you.
I have broken down on the A1 — what should I do?
Pull onto the hard shoulder or into an emergency refuge area if you can, put your hazards on, get everyone out of the vehicle and behind the safety barrier, then call 07400 400 954. Stay well away from live lanes while you wait for us.
Can you recover a non-running or accident-damaged car from the A1?
Yes. Our vehicles are winch-equipped, so we can load non-runners and accident-damaged cars that cannot drive. We will recover you from the A1 and take the vehicle to your chosen garage, home or destination.
