Live recovery drivers in and around Birmingham right now — across Solihull, Sutton Coldfield, Edgbaston, Erdington, Kings Heath, Selly Oak and Castle Bromwich, and on the M6, M42, M5 and A38(M), the A34, A45 and A41, and the Aston Expressway. See who's closest. Call them. Agree the price. 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.
Birmingham has more motorway inside its boundary than almost anywhere else in the country, and a lot of it runs without a hard shoulder. That changes what a breakdown means here: on the elevated sections and through the managed stretches of the M6, stopping in a live lane is genuinely dangerous, and getting to an emergency area matters more than getting off at the next junction.
Long managed stretches, heavy lorry traffic, and nowhere obvious to stop. If your car is still moving at all, keep going to an emergency refuge area rather than stopping where you are.
Recovery here is slow not because drivers are far away but because getting to you means committing to a particular lane and carriageway. Tell the driver the junction number and the direction of travel, not the postcode.
The reversible middle lanes and the city tunnels have their own restrictions. Some recovery vehicles cannot use them, which occasionally means a longer route in.
Ordinary urban roads where most call-outs are the ordinary things: batteries, tyres, and cars that will not start outside Solihull retail parks.
So it is worth a look at the ones next door too.
It depends on who is out. The map shows every driver live in Birmingham right now and the app shows how many miles away each one is, so you can see before you call rather than being given a time by a call centre.
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.
Every driver is checked before they can go live: driving licence, photo ID, insurance certificate and photographs of each truck, all reviewed by our team.
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.
