Local recovery
A car that has broken down or been damaged may need moving to a repairer or another nearby agreed point. The first questions are its precise location, safety, loading condition and where it will be received. An availability check is needed before any dispatch is confirmed.
Use vehicle recovery for this situation. The service is not an emergency-services hotline and does not publish an unconditional response time.
Planned international transport
A car bought abroad or being moved with its owner can be transported between countries. This request starts with the two endpoints, preferred dates and the people available for handover. Use the international route catalogue or car transport service.
Equipment depends on loading
Multi-car transporters, flatbed trailers and recovery trucks serve different arrangements. Starting the engine is not the only test: rolling, steering, brakes, keys, clearance, weight and site access all matter. Do not choose a handling method solely from a vehicle photo.
A non-running car can still be a planned move
A damaged car at a seller or workshop does not always require immediate roadside recovery. It may need a scheduled international move with suitable loading and unloading. Explain the actual situation using non-running car transport.
Ask for the arrangement, not just the rate
