How it works

From your call to back on the road

1

You call us

Ring 07707 362578 or message us on WhatsApp. You speak to the family that runs the firm, not a call centre. Tell us your location and what the car is doing.

2

We confirm and set off

We agree a clear price before we move, then the nearest of our drivers heads straight to you. Our records show most Belfast callers see us in around 40 minutes.

3

We try to fix it on the spot

Many breakdowns are a flat battery, a wheel change or a simple fault we can sort at the roadside. Our customers tell us roughly nineteen in twenty jobs are finished without a tow.

4

We recover and load safely

If the car cannot be driven, we load it securely onto the truck. Your vehicle is strapped down and handled with care from the moment we arrive.

5

We take you where you need to go

We drop your car at the garage, your home or wherever suits you, and we make sure you are safe before we leave. You are never left at the roadside.

Absolute life savers, very fast coming out and great value for money. My son was broken down in town. I called a recovery who told me they were taking 2 hours to come. Give these guys a call, 15 mins they took, very friendly when they came and at a very affordable price. Thank you.

Good to know

Breakdown recovery in Greenisland, your questions

Local answers for drivers in and around Greenisland.

How quickly can you reach me in Greenisland?

Greenisland is about 11 miles from our East Belfast base along the Lough shore, and our records show most callers here are reached in around 40 minutes. The Shore Road run is usually clear, so we are often quicker. Call 07707 362578 for a time based on your spot.

Do you recover vehicles on the Shore Road at Greenisland?

Yes. The A2 Shore Road between Belfast and Carrickfergus is one of our regular routes through Greenisland. It is fast and busy, so a breakdown there is treated as urgent. Get off the carriageway, call us, and we will be straight out.

Can you tow my car from Greenisland to a garage?

We can. Whether your garage is in Greenisland, Carrickfergus or back in Belfast, we will take the vehicle straight there. Tell us the destination when you call and we will sort it.

Do you cover the streets up the hill from the Lough as well as the Shore Road?

Yes. As well as the A2 Shore Road, we attend the residential streets running up toward the Upper Road every week. Give us your street or the nearest junction and our driver will find you.

Is SP Recovery available 24 hours in Greenisland?

It is. We answer the phone 24 hours a day, every day of the year. A late night breakdown on the Shore Road or the link roads back to the M2 is exactly what our round the clock service handles.

What causes most breakdowns around Greenisland?

On the A2 Shore Road we see flat batteries, overheating and the odd blowout, while the streets climbing from the Lough bring clutch strain and non starts. Sea air can be hard on older cars too. Whatever the fault, we will recover you.

Do you recover vans and light commercials in Greenisland?

Yes. We cover cars, vans and light commercials up to 5 tonnes, which suits the work vans and delivery vehicles using the Greenisland roads. For anything heavier we have connections with larger capacity firms.

What should I do while I wait on the Shore Road?

Get well off the carriageway if you can, switch your hazards on, and keep yourself and passengers away from the fast traffic and the water's edge. The A2 moves quickly, so stand back behind any barrier and we will phone you as our driver approaches.

How do I pay for breakdown recovery in Greenisland?

We give you a clear price over the phone before a driver leaves, so there are no surprises. Just ring 07707 362578 or message us on WhatsApp and we will explain the cost before setting off.

Can you recover my car after an accident in Greenisland?

Yes. After a collision anywhere around Greenisland, including the Shore Road, we will reach the scene, make the vehicle safe and recover it to wherever you need. Once everyone is safe, call 07707 362578 and we will be on our way.
