Your reg tells us the van’s weight class, so only drivers who can legally carry it send you a quote.
Van recovery needs a bigger truck than a hatchback. A loaded Transit or Sprinter can be close to 3.5 tonnes, and a recovery truck has to be rated to carry that legally. TowMyCar matches your van to local drivers with the right equipment, you compare their quotes, ETAs and ratings, and you pay only for the job. There’s no membership, fleet contract or call-out fee.
Caddy, Berlingo, Transit Connect, Combo — often recovered on a standard car transporter.
Transit, Sprinter, Crafter, Master, Vivaro — need a truck rated for the van’s gross weight.
Tall bodies need a flatbed with the right height clearance for the route.
Often loaded with materials — tell drivers what’s on board when you request quotes.
Converted vans and motorhomes up to 3.5t, including vans stuck in limp mode.
e-Transit, eSprinter and other EVs go flatbed-only, all four wheels off the road.

Van recovery usually costs a little more than car recovery because it needs a larger truck, and the price rises with distance, van size and whether it is loaded. Comparing several quotes on TowMyCar is free and there is no call-out fee — you only pay for the job you book.
Yes, as long as the recovery truck can legally carry the combined weight. Tell drivers roughly what the van is carrying when you request quotes so the right truck is sent. Very heavy loads may need to be partly unloaded first.
Small vans (Caddy, Berlingo, Transit Connect), medium and large panel vans (Transit, Sprinter, Crafter, Master), Luton box vans, dropsides, tippers and campervans. Standard recovery trucks handle vans up to 3.5 tonnes gross; heavier vehicles need a specialist.
No. Couriers, trades and private owners all get the same pay-per-job pricing with no fleet contract or membership.
