A truck suited to your vehicle

Recovery for small cars, vans and SUVs

Baloch Recovery Services can arrange recovery for running and non-running vehicles. We use the vehicle's size, weight, condition, access and journey details to identify the right truck, loading method and recovery price.

3.5-tonne trucks for tighter roads

Suitable smaller vehicles can be collected with a 3.5-tonne recovery truck where narrow roads or restricted access make a larger truck impractical. We confirm the truck's safe payload and loading space first.

7.5-tonne trucks for larger vehicles

For suitable vans and SUVs, we can check availability of a larger 7.5-tonne recovery truck. The exact vehicle, load, dimensions, access and equipment determine what can be carried safely.
