3am on the A1 near Gosforth and my lorry just died on me, air pressure warning going off. Called them half expecting to be on hold for ages but a proper person picked up straight away. Bloke turned up in about 35 mins, sorted the relay valve on the spot and I was off again. Didn't even need towing which saved me a massive headache with the delivery.

Was searching lorry breakdown near me Newcastle at 6am in a bit of a panic, one of our Actros wouldn't move off Team Valley. They knew the estate already which helped loads with getting in. Fuel sensor fault, fixed there and then. Would recommend to any fleet manager tbh, saved us a bad morning.

Battery gone dead at the depot before my run. Guy checked it wasnt the starter first which i appreciated, coulda just sold me a new battery straight off. Turned out it was the battery anyway so replaced it, back on the road within the hour. Good service, price was fair.

As a transport manager, what I actually care about is documentation. One of our drivers broke down near Byker and I needed his hours logged properly for compliance reasons. They did this without me even having to ask twice, and the ECU fault was resolved roadside within 40 minutes. Professional throughout.

Fast. Fair price. Fixed it roadside near Wallsend, didn't try and upsell me on anything. That's really all you want when your lorry's dead on the side of the road.

Honestly wasn't expecting much when i rang round at midnight but they answered within a few rings, real person not a machine. Explained the air brake issue over the phone so I knew roughly what was coming. Fixed on site, no recovery needed which they said upfront was the aim before towing.

Searched lorry breakdown near me Newcastle after our rigid started overheating near Benwell, coolant everywhere. They came out, topped it up and checked the thermostat, got us moving to a proper garage after. Only reason not 5 stars is it took a bit longer than the quoted time but they did call to update us which was good.

Lorry broke down near Fenham on a Sunday which I thought would be a nightmare for getting anyone out. Wasn't the case at all, same response as any other day. Turned out to be a starter motor issue, they carried the part with them so no waiting around for stock or anything like that. Sorted within the hour.

FAQ

Tow Truck Service
Newcastle FAQ

The most common questions about tow truck service in Newcastle. If yours isn't here, call us directly.

How much does a tow truck cost in Newcastle?
Price depends on distance, vehicle type, and equipment needed. Fixed quote given on the call before dispatch.
Can you tow a car with no wheels?
Yes — our flatbed trucks winch vehicles on with no need for the wheels to roll.
Can you tow a low or sports car safely in Newcastle?
Yes. Our flatbed and low-loader trucks use extended ramps and low approach angles specifically for splitters and low-clearance vehicles.
What's the difference between flatbed and spec lift?
Flatbed lifts the whole vehicle off the ground — safest for low, classic, or prestige cars. Spec lift raises only the front or rear wheels — faster and cheaper for standard cars moving short distances.
Do you tow motorbikes?
Yes, using dedicated bike-loading flatbed equipment with soft straps.
How long does a tow take in Newcastle?
Depends on traffic and distance — we give an accurate ETA on the call, typically 18-40 minutes for local jobs.
Do you cover Team Valley Trading Estate and the wider logistics area?
Yes, including Team Valley, Gateshead border, and the wider Tyneside area.
