Vehicle recovery across Houss
Houss sits in the southern part of Shetland Islands; the nearest sizeable centres are Aberdeen (~204 mi south), Dundee (~256 mi south), Edinburgh (~292 mi south); there is no motorway close by, so we run in on the A-roads and local routes.
Because of its more rural location and distance from the motorway network, a realistic arrival window for Houss is ~40–70 min once a truck is dispatched, with crews frequently already working nearby.
We cover Houss and the roads out toward Papil (~1 mi west), Duncansclett (~1 mi west), Norbister (~1 mi north), Freefield (~1 mi north-west), Bridge End (~1 mi north-west), so help is rarely far from wherever you have stopped — roadside, car park, driveway or private land.

What we handle in Houss
Town & residential recovery
Across built-up parts of Houss we recover from multi-storey and underground car parks, tight residential streets and low-clearance access, using the right equipment for confined or awkward locations.
Rural & remote recovery
Around Houss we reach single-track lanes, farm access and remote spots off the main network — the kind of locations where a national line struggles to place a truck.
Breakdowns, accidents & non-runners
Flat batteries, misfuels, clutch and gearbox failures, accident damage, seized or non-starting vehicles — cars, vans and light commercials, running or not, recovered to your chosen destination.
