If you've just been in an accident, your priorities are simple: make sure everyone's OK, get the car off the road safely, and start sorting out the claim. SRL Recovery handles the middle part — fast, careful, properly insured accident recovery 24 hours a day across Glasgow. We work with all major UK insurance companies and can coordinate non-fault claims at no upfront cost to you.
What we do at the scene
We arrive, assess the vehicle, and decide whether it's drivable or needs to be loaded. For damaged vehicles we use the right kit to load without causing additional damage — particularly important for newer cars with crumple zones and complex underbodies.
We can take the vehicle to your home, a garage of your choice, or directly to a body shop. If you're going through an insurance claim, we can deliver to your insurer's preferred repairer. If it's a write-off situation, we'll take it to your insurer's storage facility.
Insurance coordination
We deal with insurers daily and know how to handle the paperwork — claim references, fee-recovery letters, salvage handovers, the lot. For non-fault accidents we can handle the entire claim at no upfront cost to you, and arrange a like-for-like replacement vehicle while yours is being repaired.

Common questions
I've just had an accident — what's the first thing to do?
Safety first: check everyone is OK, move away from the road if you can, call 999 if anyone is injured or the road is blocked. Then exchange details with the other driver and take photos of the scene. Then call us — we'll get the vehicle moved.
Does my insurance cover the recovery?
Most comprehensive policies cover accident recovery — call your insurer first if you're not sure. If it's a non-fault accident we can handle the claim through the other driver's insurance at no upfront cost.
Can you take my car to my own garage?
Yes — we'll take it wherever you want it: your home, your usual garage, a body shop, or your insurer's preferred repairer. Your choice.
