Live recovery drivers along the M25 right now, from the whole orbital from the Dartford Crossing round through junction 10 at Wisley, junction 15 for Heathrow and the M4, junction 21 for the M1 and junction 27 for the M11, including Clacket Lane, Cobham, South Mimms and Thurrock services. Tap a number to see how many are near you, then open the app to see the drivers, how far away they are, and call the one you choose. No membership. No call centres. No payment to us.
Built for the moment you are stood at the roadside, so nothing gets in the way.
Allow location or type a postcode. The map shows every driver live nearby and how many miles away each one is.
Tap Call and speak to them directly. Agree the price between you before they set off.
Give the driver your six-digit code and follow them on the map, with a live arrival time, until they reach you.
So we check every driver, and the map only ever shows drivers who are actually out.
Driving licence, photo ID, insurance certificate and photographs of every truck, reviewed by our team. Nobody appears on the map until they pass.
Drivers share their position while they work. If a truck is on the map, it is out and reachable — not a listing last updated years ago.
Only customers who completed a job can leave a rating, and each one is looked at before it counts.
We are not in the middle of the payment. No commission, no booking fee, no membership — which is also why it stays cheaper than cover.
On the M25 the nearest driver is almost never the fastest one. A recovery truck two miles behind you can be with you in ten minutes; one two miles ahead may have to go most of the way round. Direction matters more here than on any other road in the country.
This is the first thing to say. It decides which operators can reach you at all without a very long detour.
Tolled, with restrictions on what can use the tunnels. Breakdowns at the crossing are handled by its own operator.
Parts of the M25 run as managed motorway with emergency areas instead. Keep going to one if the car will still move.
Heathrow and Gatwick traffic joins and leaves in volume, which makes the junctions near them busier than the open sections.
So it is worth a look at the ones next door too.
Get everyone out of the vehicle and behind the barrier if it is safe to do so, and stand well away from the traffic. On a smart motorway with no hard shoulder, use an emergency refuge area if you can reach one. If you are in a live lane and cannot get out safely, stay belted in with hazard lights on and call 999. Once you are safe, open the map and call a driver.
Yes, where they are insured and equipped to do so. Drivers along the M25 recover from the hard shoulder, refuge areas and services every day. If National Highways attend first they may move you to a safe place, from where any driver on the map can collect you.
You agree the price with the driver on the phone before they set off. RecoverQ adds nothing to it — no booking fee, no commission and no membership.
No. Open the map, see who is live, and call. If the driver takes the job you get a six-digit code and can watch them on their way.
Drivers along the M25 cover Dartford, Sevenoaks, Reigate, Leatherhead, Woking, Staines, Watford, Potters Bar, Enfield, Waltham Abbey, Brentwood and Thurrock, and the roads that feed onto the motorway.
