24/7 recovery in and around Melrose

Melrose sits in central The Scottish Borders; the nearest sizeable centres are Edinburgh (~30 mi north-west), Carlisle (~49 mi south), East Kilbride (~58 mi west); 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 Melrose is ~40–70 min once a truck is dispatched, with crews frequently already working nearby.

We cover Melrose and the roads out toward Highcross (~1 mi west), Gattonside (~1 mi north), Dingleton (~1 mi south), Darnick (~1 mi west), Newstead (~1 mi east), so help is rarely far from wherever you have stopped — roadside, car park, driveway or private land.

Tell us your TD postcode or a nearby landmark in Melrose and we will route the closest available truck to you, 24 hours a day. Call 07400 400 954 for an upfront price.

What we handle in Melrose

Town & residential recovery

Across built-up parts of Melrose 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 Melrose 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.
