A commercial vehicle off the road is lost income, not just an inconvenience. SRL Recovery provides fast, reliable recovery for the full range of business vehicles across Glasgow — from a single sole-trader van to a fleet of minibuses or light trucks. We understand the urgency businesses feel that private motorists don't always have, and we dispatch accordingly.
Commercial vehicles we recover
Panel vans, Lutons, and dropsides; minibuses and people-carriers; taxis and private hire vehicles; small flatbed and tipper trucks up to 3.5 tonnes; trailers and box trailers; refrigerated vans; mobile catering units and workshops. If it's used for business, we've likely recovered one like it before.
For anything over 3.5 tonnes (7.5t+ HGVs, artics) you'll need a dedicated heavy recovery operator — call us anyway and we'll point you in the right direction if we can't help directly.
Built around minimising downtime
We know a commercial breakdown often means a missed job, a stranded fare, or a driver sitting idle on the clock. Tell us it's a business vehicle when you call and we'll treat it with the urgency it deserves — clear ETA, direct communication, and delivery to whichever garage, depot, or yard keeps you moving fastest.
Regular breakdowns with the same vehicle or fleet? Ask about setting up a trade account — see our dedicated page on trade recovery for garages, dealers, and fleet operators.
Commercial recovery is priced the same as our standard rates — from £50 local call-out + £1.50/mile, or £100 flat for motorway work. Trade and fleet accounts can access agreed rates — ask on the call.

Common questions
Do you recover minibuses and taxis?
Yes — minibuses, people-carriers, taxis, and private hire vehicles are all routine recoveries for us, including with passengers' luggage or equipment still loaded.
What's the difference between this and van recovery?
Van recovery covers specific van models and their loads. Commercial recovery is the broader service for any business vehicle — vans, minibuses, taxis, small trucks, and trailers — with a focus on getting your business back up and running fast.
Can I set up an account for regular recoveries?
Yes — if you run a fleet or need recovery regularly, a trade account gets you agreed rates and priority dispatch. See our trade recovery page or just call and ask.
