WHO WE ARE.
LADS Recovery is a 24/7 vehicle recovery and breakdown service based in Wickford, Essex (SS11), covering a 60-mile radius. Cars, vans, motorcycles and light commercials recovered fast, day or night.
LADS Recovery is a local, independent operator — not a faceless national call centre. When you ring, you get a real person and a properly-equipped van, not a queue. We know these roads because we work them every day, from the A127 to the Dartford Crossing, and we turn up when we say we will.
WHAT WE RUN.
LADS Recovery is a local, independent operator based in Wickford, Essex (SS11). We're not a national call-centre passing your job to whoever's nearest — when you ring, you get a real person and one of our own, properly-equipped vans.
We recover cars, vans, motorcycles and light commercials right across a 60-mile radius — all of Essex, into East London, north Kent and out toward Suffolk, Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire. We're on the road 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
On the kit side we carry a 5.5-metre low-access trailer for low, prestige and non-running vehicles, a 150kg in-van crane for engine and gearbox lifts, and our van is fully tracker-equipped so your vehicle's journey is monitored end to end. We also buy scrap and end-of-life vehicles for cash and collect them free of charge.
How a call-out works
You call, we give you a straight price and an honest ETA, we plan the route and send a tracker-equipped van straight to you, we load safely with the right equipment, and we deliver your vehicle where it needs to be — home, garage or buyer.
Straight, transparent pricing
No surprises. Pre-booked collections are charged on one-way mileage plus a booking fee; emergency call-outs are charged both ways plus the call-out fee. You can get an instant estimate with our online cost calculator before you commit, and we confirm the final price on the phone.
