Caravan & Trailer Towing in Canonbury, Islington
We tow caravans, trailers and horseboxes to and from Canonbury — to storage, to a dealer, to a service centre or between sites. Everything is planned before we arrive, including access, hitch type and weight.
A caravan or trailer that has failed at the roadside is a bigger problem than a car, because you cannot simply leave it. We have the equipment and the experience to move them safely, whether that is an emergency on Essex Road (A104) or a planned relocation from Canonbury.
Arrival times in Canonbury
Our trucks start from Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, roughly 12.5 miles from Canonbury. For an emergency that means we are usually 40 minutes to an hour, usually arriving via Essex Road (A104) or St Paul's Road. We will never promise a time we cannot keep — if the traffic is bad, we tell you on the phone.

Fixed price, agreed before we start
We do not work from a price list, because no two jobs are the same. 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. Ring 07961 100260 with the details and we will give you one fixed price for Canonbury — no extras added on the day. We take card and bank transfer.

Caravan & Trailer Towing in Canonbury — FAQs
What do you need to know to tow my caravan?
The make and model, approximate weight, hitch type, where it is and where it is going, and anything about access — a narrow gate, a steep drive, a soft field. Photos help.
How quickly can you reach me in Canonbury?
Canonbury is about 12.5 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 Essex Road (A104) and St Paul's Road. 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.
Can you recover my car and caravan together?
Yes. If your tow car breaks down, we can recover both — the car on the truck and the caravan on tow — so you are not left with one of them at the roadside.
Do you cover all of N1?
Yes — every street in N1, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Islington, Finsbury Park, Shoreditch and Hackney, so if you are on a boundary it makes no difference.
Do you move horseboxes and plant trailers?
Yes. We move horseboxes (empty), plant trailers, car transporters and box trailers. Tell us the size and weight so we send a suitable vehicle.
My car won't start at Canonbury station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Canonbury, 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.
Can you take my caravan into storage?
Yes. We can tow it straight to our secure yard in Erith and bring it back when you need it.
I have broken down on Essex Road — 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 insured to tow caravans?
Yes. We are fully insured for towing and goods in transit, and certificates are available on request.
Are you open at night and at weekends in Canonbury?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Canonbury, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
