When your vehicle stops working, your plans stop with it. Whether you are at home, at work, or on the roadside, you need clear advice and dependable support.

 

At Cambridge Transport & Recovery Ltd, we provide professional breakdown recovery with a calm, straightforward approach. As a locally operated, family-run team, our focus is simple: keep you safe, communicate clearly, and get you moving again without unnecessary stress.

When you call us, you speak directly to our team. No call centres. No confusion. Just practical help when you need it most.

A Local Team Providing Vehicle Recovery

Cambridge Transport & Recovery was built to offer reliable vehicle recovery without the cold, national feel that often comes with larger providers.

We support private motorists, trade customers, garages, and dealerships with professional recovery and safe vehicle movement. From urgent roadside call-outs to planned transport, every job is handled with care and proper insurance cover.

If you would like to see the full range of services we provide, you can explore them on our main services page.

How We Approach Roadside Assistance

Your safety always comes first. If you are unsure what to do after a breakdown, we will guide you calmly over the phone before dispatching support.

Our team provides:

  • 24-hour roadside assistance
  • Secure and insured vehicle transport
  • Recovery for cars, vans, and light commercial vehicles
  • Support across the surrounding towns and counties

We are fully insured up to £100k per vehicle when it is in our care, giving you peace of mind during transport. We confirm the full cost before dispatch, subject to vehicle type, location, and availability.

If your vehicle needs to be moved to a garage or another destination, you can learn more about how we handle this on our dedicated vehicle transport page. 

Clear and Fair Pricing

We believe recovery services should be straightforward.

  • We only charge for loaded miles.
  • The first 25 loaded miles are complimentary.

There are no hidden extras added at the end. Everything is agreed before we attend. That transparency is why many drivers contact us when they need dependable emergency roadside assistance.
