Emergency Breakdown

Broken down? We roll 24/7

A breakdown does not wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our mobile breakdown crews are on call around the clock to get to your stranded rig fast, fix what can be fixed roadside, and recover what cannot.

24/7 Emergency Breakdown

When a truck breaks down, every minute has a price tag. The freight is late, the slot is missed, the driver is stranded, and the meter is running on a rig that should be earning. Breakdowns have an uncanny habit of happening at the worst possible time — the middle of the night, the far side of the run, the start of a long weekend. That is exactly why our emergency breakdown service runs around the clock, every day of the year, staffed by heavy-diesel technicians who fix big trucks for a living, not a general callout service learning on your truck.

When you call our breakdown line, we get the critical information fast — where you are, what you are driving, what it is doing — and roll a fully-equipped mobile service unit to you. Our breakdown trucks carry the tools, diagnostic gear and common parts to fix the majority of roadside faults on the spot: air leaks, electrical faults, fuel and filter problems, hoses, belts, sensors, batteries and more. The goal is always to get you rolling again under your own power, because a roadside fix beats a recovery every time for cost and lost time.

What our breakdown crews handle

  • Mobile roadside diagnosis and repair, 24/7
  • Air, brake, electrical, fuel and cooling faults
  • Hose, belt, sensor, battery and filter replacement
  • Emergency DPF regens and emissions derate clearing
  • Heavy recovery and tow when a roadside fix isn't possible
  • Direct line to our workshop for parts and back-up

Fix it roadside or recover it — one call

Not every breakdown can be fixed on the shoulder, and we are honest about that. When a fault is beyond a roadside repair, the same call that brought our breakdown crew brings our heavy recovery capability — we lift the truck, recover the load, and tow it straight to our workshop for repair. You deal with one operator from the breakdown to the repair, with one point of contact keeping you informed, instead of stitching together a tow company, a freight solution and a separate mechanic at two in the morning.

Built for operators who can't afford to wait

Our breakdown service exists for businesses where a stranded truck is a serious problem, not a minor annoyance. We prioritise getting you moving, we keep you updated with honest arrival times instead of empty promises, and we bill fairly even at three in the morning — because an emergency is stressful enough without wondering whether you are being taken for a ride. Put our breakdown number in every cab in your fleet, and your drivers always know exactly who to call.

Stranded right now? Don't sit and lose money — call our 24/7 breakdown line and we'll get a unit rolling to you straight away.
