Accident Recovery in Greater Manchester

A road accident leaves you dealing with shock, insurance calls, and a vehicle that may not be driveable. MW Recovery Services handles the vehicle side of that for you. We attend accident scenes across Greater Manchester 24 hours a day, recover damaged vehicles safely, and give you one less thing to worry about.

Our flatbed trucks load accident-damaged vehicles without requiring them to drive or roll. That matters when your car has front or rear damage, a damaged suspension, or bodywork that cannot take any more stress. We do not use wheel-lift equipment for accident recovery because it can cause further damage to already-compromised vehicles.

Once your vehicle is with us, we can store it securely at our Salford site while your insurance claim progresses, or deliver it directly to a garage of your choice. Our workshop team can also assess repair costs and provide a written estimate for your insurer if needed. For general breakdown recovery, see our breakdown recovery near me page.
