M6 Breakdown & Recovery

Broken down on the M6 through Birmingham, Walsall and Wolverhampton? Recoverer covers junctions 1 to 12, including the Aston Expressway and Spaghetti Junctionaround the clock for breakdowns, accidents and vehicles that can't be driven. You see one all-in price before you book, and you can track your driver live once they accept. No membership.

If you've stopped on the M6, do this first

  • Pull onto the hard shoulder or into an emergency refuge area if you can, as far left as possible, wheels turned to the left.
  • Hazard lights on. At night or in poor visibility, sidelights too.
  • Leave by the passenger-side doors and get behind the barrier, up the bank if there is one.
  • Do not attempt a repair, and do not put out a warning triangle on a motorway.
  • If you cannot get off the running lane, stay belted in with hazards on and call 999.

Recovery on the M6

The M6 is the busiest stretch of motorway we cover, and the section through the West Midlands \u2014 Spaghetti Junction at J6, the climb past Walsall, the Toll split at J11a \u2014 generates more call-outs than any other road in the region. Our drivers work it daily and know the refuge areas and the junction exits, which matters when you are trying to describe where you are. We recover cars, vans, motorbikes and HGVs, and can take your vehicle to a garage, your home, or anywhere else you choose.

What it costs

The callout for your vehicle type, plus the per-mile rate for wherever you're going, plus a £15 motorway premium for the extra safety requirements of working on a live motorway — which goes to the driver in full. You see the total before you confirm; your card is held then and charged when the job is done.

Questions

Do you recover vehicles from the M6?
Yes. We cover the M6 24 hours a day for breakdowns, accidents and immobile vehicles. A £15 motorway premium is added to the price and shown before you confirm — it covers the extra safety requirements of working on a live motorway, and it goes to the driver in full.
What should I do while I wait on the motorway?
Get your vehicle onto the hard shoulder or into an emergency refuge area if you can, put your hazard lights on, and leave through the passenger-side doors. Wait behind the safety barrier, up the bank, and away from oncoming traffic — never stay in the vehicle on a live carriageway, and never attempt a repair yourself. If you cannot leave the running lane, call 999 immediately.
Do I need a membership?
No. There is no membership, annual fee or contract. You pay per job at the price shown before you book.
How much does motorway recovery cost?
You see one all-in price before you book: the callout for your vehicle type, the per-mile rate for the distance, and the £15 motorway premium. Your card is held at booking and charged when the job is complete.
