Breakdown Recovery in Anerley, Bromley
Our breakdown recovery service in Anerley covers everything from a car that will not start on the drive to one that has stopped dead on Anerley Road. We recover to your home, a garage of your choice, or our own workshop in Erith, where we can diagnose and repair it ourselves.
When a car gives up in Anerley, the two things that matter are how soon somebody arrives and whether they can actually move it. We run our own recovery trucks out of Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so there is no middleman passing your job down a list. We take your location, your vehicle and what has happened, then send the nearest truck.
How long until we reach you in Anerley?
From our Erith yard to Anerley is about 11.4 miles, so in an emergency we are usually 40 minutes to an hour. The last stretch is normally Anerley Road or Anerley Hill. Ring 07961 100260 and you will have an honest arrival time and a fixed price before you hang up.

We know the area, so we plan the approach before we leave the yard rather than working it out on arrival.

Fixed price, agreed before we start
Every job in Anerley is priced on its own merits rather than from a list. Where the vehicle is, where it needs to go, what it is and whether anything makes it awkward — no keys, will not roll, a tight spot — all change the work involved. Tell us, and you get a fixed figure on the phone with no obligation. That figure is the price you pay. We take card and bank transfer.

Breakdown Recovery in Anerley — FAQs
What information do you need when I ring?
Where you are (a postcode, road name or what3words is ideal), the make, model and registration, and what the car is doing — will not start, lost power, warning light, noise. Tell us too if it has no keys, will not roll or is somewhere with a height barrier. With that we can give you a fixed price and an honest arrival time on the first call.
How quickly can you reach me in Anerley?
Anerley is about 11.4 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually 40 minutes to an hour, normally coming in via Anerley Road and Anerley Hill. 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.
Where will you take my car?
Wherever you want it to go — home, your own garage, a main dealer, or our workshop in Erith, where we can diagnose and repair it ourselves. If you are not sure, we can store it securely at our yard overnight while you decide.
Do you cover all of SE20?
Yes — every street in SE20, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Penge, Crystal Palace, South Norwood and Upper Norwood, so if you are on a boundary it makes no difference.
Can I travel in the recovery truck with you?
Yes, in most cases. Our trucks carry passengers, so you and usually one other adult can ride with us. If you have more people, children needing car seats or a pet, tell us when you ring so we can plan for it.
My car won't start at Anerley station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Anerley, 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.
Do I need to be a member to use your breakdown service?
No. There is no membership and no annual fee — you pay for the job you need, at a price agreed before we set off. Many of our customers are AA or RAC members who have been quoted a long wait and would rather pay to be moved now.
I have broken down on Anerley Road — what should I do?
Put your hazards on, stay visible and ring 07961 100260. Give us the nearest house number or junction and we will tell you exactly where we will load. If the street is tightly parked we may winch the car out rather than reverse in, so it helps to know how much space there is.
Can you recover vans, 4x4s and motorbikes?
Yes. We recover cars, vans, 4x4s, motorbikes and light commercials. For larger vans, loaded vehicles or anything unusual, tell us the details when you ring so we send the right truck.
Are you open at night and at weekends in Anerley?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Anerley, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
