Recovery and roadside assistance across Greenwich Peninsula
The peninsula's new residential towers have underground car parks with strict height limits — tell us the clearance and we will send the right vehicle. Many of our calls here are flat batteries in those basements.
We cover every street in SE10 around the clock from our yard in Erith, about 7.2 miles away. The calls we get most here are breakdowns on Blackwall Tunnel Approach (A102) and John Harrison Way, flat batteries in the car parks around Design District, and cars that will not start at North Greenwich station.
When you ring 07961 100260, a person answers. We take your location, the vehicle details and what has happened, and you get a fixed price and a realistic arrival window before you put the phone down. Our driver rings you again as they approach, so you are not standing there wondering.

Fixed prices, no surprises
Every job is different, so we price each one on its own merits rather than reading from a list. Where the vehicle is, where it is going, what it is, and whether anything makes it awkward — no keys, will not roll, needs winching out of a tight spot — all of it changes the work involved. Tell us and we will give you a fixed figure for your job before we set off, with no obligation. That figure is then the price you pay.
What to do while you wait
If you are on a dual carriageway or motorway, get to the hard shoulder or an emergency refuge area if you possibly can, put your hazards on, leave the vehicle by the left-hand doors and wait behind the barrier rather than in the car. On residential streets, park as far to the left as you can and stay visible. Keep your phone charged and to hand — our driver will call you.
Questions about recovery in Greenwich Peninsula
How quickly can you reach me in Greenwich Peninsula?
Greenwich Peninsula is about 7.2 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually 30 to 50 minutes, normally coming in via Blackwall Tunnel Approach (A102) and John Harrison Way. Traffic, the time of day and how many jobs are running all move that, so when you ring 07961 100260 we give you a real window for that moment rather than a best case.
Do you cover all of SE10?
Yes — every street in SE10, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of North Greenwich, Westcombe Park, Greenwich and Charlton, so if you are on a boundary it makes no difference.
My car won't start at North Greenwich station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Greenwich Peninsula, usually for a flat battery after the car has sat all day. Tell us which car park and roughly where you are parked. If it has a height barrier or a pay-on-exit gate, mention that too and we will send the right vehicle and sort the exit with you.
I have broken down on Blackwall Tunnel Approach — what should I do?
That is a main road, so safety first: if the car can roll, get it to the kerb or into a side road, switch on your hazards, and wait somewhere safe away from the traffic — not in the car. Then ring 07961 100260. Red routes and bus lanes are enforced quickly, so we prioritise moving vehicles off them.
Are you open at night and at weekends in Greenwich Peninsula?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Greenwich Peninsula, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
What does recovery in Greenwich Peninsula cost?
Every job is different, so we quote each one individually rather than working from a price list. What it costs depends on where the vehicle is, where it needs to go, what sort of vehicle it is and whether anything about it makes the job harder — no keys, will not roll, stuck somewhere awkward. Tell us those things and we will give you a fixed figure on the phone, with no obligation.
Can you recover a vehicle from private land in Greenwich Peninsula?
Yes, provided you are the registered keeper or have the landowner's permission. If the vehicle is in a multi-storey car park or somewhere with a height restriction, please mention it when you ring so we send the right truck.
