Roadside
Assistance
Stuck at the side of the road and not sure you need a tow? Our roadside assistance team will come out and try to fix the problem on the spot — saving you time and money.
Not every breakdown requires a tow truck. Many roadside situations can be resolved quickly with the right knowledge and equipment. Big Ray Car Recovery's roadside assistance service is designed to fix your vehicle at the scene wherever possible — a flat tyre, a dead battery, running out of fuel, or a minor mechanical issue — before resorting to recovery.
We attend all kinds of roadside incidents across Warrington, Liverpool, Manchester, St Helens, Widnes, Chester, Preston and surrounding areas. Our team carries tyre-changing equipment, fuel, jump start packs, and basic mechanical tools to handle the most common breakdown causes at the roadside.
If we can't fix it on the spot, we'll arrange a full vehicle recovery to get you and your car to a garage safely. You pay one call-out charge regardless — we don't bill you extra if a recovery is needed.
