Local coverage across Crawley
We arrange recovery right across Crawley and West Sussex: Crawley Town Centre, Three Bridges, Ifield, Bewbush, Pound Hill, Gossops Green, Tilgate, Southgate. Wherever you are, on a main road, a residential street, a car park or the motorway, we identify the nearest available local operator and send them to you, then agree the price before anyone sets off, so there are no surprises when they arrive.
Our local operators know the Crawley road network: the M23 at Junctions 10 and 11, the A23, the A2011 Crawley Avenue and the approaches to Gatwick Airport right next to the town. Knowing these means a recovery truck reaches you quickly on the busy M23/Gatwick corridor.
Crawley is a West Sussex new town built next to Gatwick Airport, laid out in neighbourhoods around the A23 and A2011 with the M23 on its doorstep. Airport traffic, the neighbourhood road layout, the stadium at Broadfield and the M23 all shape a recovery. Our local operators know the M23 junctions, the Gatwick approaches and where it is safe to load.

2. We dispatch
The nearest available operator heads to you, with live updates so you are never left wondering.
3. Fix or recover

What to do if you break down in Crawley
A few quick steps keep you safe while you wait for recovery.
Get to safety
Pull over as far from traffic as you can, switch on your hazard lights and, if it is safe, leave the vehicle from the side away from passing traffic.
Make yourself visible
Put on a hi-vis if you have one and use a warning triangle on normal roads. On a motorway or red route, stay behind a barrier and do not place a triangle.
Note your location
Look for a street name, building, junction or marker post. It helps us reach you faster and confirm the nearest safe access point.
