Caravan & Trailer Towing in Waddon, Croydon
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 Purley Way (A23) or a planned relocation from Waddon.
We tow caravans, trailers and horseboxes to and from Waddon — to storage, to a dealer, to a service centre or between sites. Everything is planned before we arrive, including access, hitch type and weight.
Arrival times in Waddon
Waddon is about 14.9 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, and for an emergency we are usually 40 minutes to an hour. Depending on the traffic we come in via Purley Way (A23) or Stafford Road (A232). When you ring you get a realistic window for that moment, not a best case — and our driver calls you as they get close.

Around Waddon: roads, landmarks and stations
Getting a caravan out of a tight Waddon street or a narrow drive is where experience counts. We look at the access before we commit — tell us about the gate width, the turn and any parked cars on Purley Way (A23).
If you stop on Purley Way (the A23), it is a main road — get the vehicle to the kerb or a side street if it will roll, put the hazards on and wait somewhere safe, not in the car.
Landmarks we use to find people in Waddon include Purley Way retail parks, Historic Croydon Airport, Waddon Ponds and Wandle Park, and the stations at Waddon and Waddon Marsh tram stop. If you are lost, tell us what you can see and we will work it out together.
What it costs in Waddon
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 Waddon — no extras added on the day. We take card and bank transfer.

Caravan & Trailer Towing in Waddon — 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 Waddon?
Waddon is about 14.9 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 Purley Way (A23) and Stafford Road (A232). 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 CR0?
Yes — every street in CR0, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of South Croydon, West Croydon, Croydon and East Croydon, 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 Waddon station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Waddon, 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 Purley Way — 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 Waddon?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Waddon, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
