Live recovery drivers along the M3 right now, from junction 1 at Sunbury down through Camberley, Basingstoke and Winchester to junction 14 at Southampton, including Fleet and Winchester 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.
The M3 runs from London to Southampton and has long stretches running as all-lane running, with emergency areas in place of a hard shoulder. It is a fast road with heavy commuter traffic at both ends of the day, and the section through the Hampshire countryside has fewer places to stop than it appears.
No continuous hard shoulder. Emergency areas are spaced along the route and are where you should aim for.
Heavy traffic and the usual interchange congestion.
Fast and open, with the M27 junction bringing coastal traffic in.
Junction, direction, and whether you are in a live lane or an emergency area.
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 M3 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 M3 cover Sunbury, Chertsey, Camberley, Farnborough, Fleet, Basingstoke, Winchester, Eastleigh and Southampton, and the roads that feed onto the motorway.
