Local coverage across Aberdeen
We arrange recovery right across Aberdeen and the north east of Scotland: Aberdeen City Centre, Old Aberdeen, Dyce, Bridge of Don, Cults, Torry, Mannofield, Kincorth. 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 Aberdeen road network: the AWPR (A90 Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route) bypass, the A90 north and south, the A96 towards the airport at Dyce, and Anderson Drive round the city. Knowing these means a recovery truck reaches you quickly even when Anderson Drive and the harbour approaches are busy.
Aberdeen is the granite city of north-east Scotland, a major harbour and energy-industry hub now ringed by the AWPR bypass. Harbour and offshore traffic, the airport at Dyce, Pittodrie match days and the two universities all shape a recovery, and its northern location makes a genuinely local operator matter. Our local operators know the AWPR junctions, the harbour roads 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 Aberdeen
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.
