Fleet & Commercial Vehicle Recovery Manchester Manchester

A commercial vehicle off the road costs your business money every hour it stays there. Delivery windows missed, jobs not completed, customers let down. MW Recovery provides fleet and commercial vehicle recovery across Greater Manchester with priority response for account customers and fast pay-as-you-go response for everyone else.

We cover vans, light commercial vehicles, rigids, and HGVs across all major routes in and around Manchester. Our base in Salford gives us quick access to the M60, M62, M56, M61, and the main A-road network across Greater Manchester. We operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including bank holidays.

Types of Commercial Vehicles We Recover

• Vans (up to 3.5 tonnes): Ford Transit, Mercedes Sprinter, Volkswagen Crafter, Vauxhall Vivaro, Renault Trafic, Citroen Relay, Luton box vans. All recovered on flatbed as standard.
• Light trucks and rigids (up to 7.5 tonnes): most smaller rigids can be handled with our heavy-duty equipment directly.
• HGVs and articulated lorries: we attend for roadside support and coordinate specialist heavy recovery where required.
• Refrigerated vehicles: reefer failure is time-critical for perishable loads. We attend fast and coordinate specialist reefer support where needed.
• Plant and specialist vehicles: contact us to discuss specific requirements.

Fleet Account Service

For businesses with regular recovery needs, account terms give you faster processing, consolidated billing, and a dedicated contact rather than going through the standard callout line every time. Account customers get priority dispatch when we have multiple jobs running simultaneously.

We provide a written incident report for every fleet job. The report covers: vehicle registration, time of callout, arrival time, fault description, action taken, recovery destination, and total charge. This documentation supports your insurance claims, DVSA records, and fleet maintenance reporting.

Account setup is straightforward. Call us on 07553 322281, tell us about your fleet (vehicle types, typical Manchester routes, expected frequency of callouts), and we discuss terms. There is no minimum spend and no minimum contract length to start.

What to Tell Your Drivers

Brief your drivers in advance and recovery incidents are handled faster. Tell them: call 07553 322281 immediately on breakdown. Give their exact location using road name and nearest junction or landmark. State the vehicle registration and describe the fault. Stay with the vehicle in a safe position until the driver arrives. Do not attempt to push the vehicle on a motorway.

We can provide a simple laminated card for your vehicles that covers these steps and our contact number. Call or email us and we will send a set for your fleet.
