What To Expect

How We Work, Before You Call

Rather than tell you what other people think, here is exactly what happens when you call CityGrip Recovery, so there are no surprises on the roadside.

πŸ“ž

One Call, A Real Person

The phone is answered by someone who can actually dispatch a truck, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including weekends and bank holidays. There is no queue system and no automated callback you have to chase. Tell us the postcode, the vehicle and what has happened, and we work out the nearest option straight away.

πŸ’·

A Fixed Price Before We Move

We ask where you are, where the vehicle needs to go and what you drive, then we give you a price for that job. It is agreed before a truck sets off and it does not change on the roadside. No call-out fee, no mileage surcharge bolted on at the end, and no pressure to commit while you are still deciding.

πŸ•

A Realistic Arrival Time

Where you have stopped, the time of day and the traffic between us all change how long it takes to reach you. So we do not quote a blanket figure to every caller. We check which driver is closest to your postcode, give you a realistic time for your exact location, and tell you straight away if anything changes.

πŸš›

The Right Truck For Your Vehicle

Cars, SUVs and 4x4s, vans and commercials up to 7.5 tonnes, motorcycles, scooters, EVs and hybrids. We ask what you drive before we dispatch, because the equipment differs. Electric and hybrid vehicles travel on a flatbed only, to protect the drivetrain and battery pack, and bikes go on dedicated chocks and soft ties.

πŸ›‘οΈ

Fully Insured, Careful Handling

Every operator we dispatch is fully insured and properly equipped for recovery work. Your vehicle is secured, loaded and delivered to the garage, home address or destination you choose, and you decide where it goes, not us. If we can fix the fault at the roadside instead of recovering you, we will say so.

πŸ“

Based in Leyton E10, Covering London

We are a London recovery operator based in Leyton, East London, not a national call centre passing your job down a chain. We cover every London borough and postcode, the M25, the M11 and the wider motorway network, plus long-distance recovery anywhere in the UK when you need the vehicle moved further.

🚧

Staying Safe While You Wait

If you have stopped on a motorway or a fast A road, get everyone out of the left-hand doors, behind the barrier and well back from the carriageway before you call. Put your hazard lights on, leave the sidelights on in poor visibility, and do not attempt repairs on the hard shoulder. On a residential street, stay with the vehicle if it is safe to do so.

πŸ“

What To Have Ready When You Call

It speeds everything up if you have the registration, the make and model, and your postcode or the nearest motorway marker post to hand. Tell us whether the vehicle still rolls, whether it goes into neutral, and whether the handbrake releases, because that decides which truck and equipment we send. Have the keys with you if you can.

🚨

If The Accident Was Not Your Fault

Where another driver is at fault, the recovery, storage and a like-for-like courtesy car can be arranged through our own claims team, CityGrip Claims, with the costs recovered from the at-fault driver's insurer rather than from you. We will explain the options honestly on the call and you are never obliged to use it.
