Inside the SE16 District
The SE16 district takes in Rotherhithe, sitting within Southwark. It borders SE15, SE17 and SE14, all of which we cover with the same drivers — so if you’re right on a district boundary, it makes no difference to your ETA.
Recovery on Residential Streets
SE16’s residential streets weren’t built for recovery trucks — but ours work them daily, from Rotherhithe across to the SE15 and SE17 boundaries. Whether you’re boxed into a permit bay or stopped on a narrow through-road, we bring the right-sized vehicle for the street.

Frequently Asked Questions
There’s an abandoned car on my property — can you remove it?
Yes. We remove abandoned vehicles from private land across SE16 for owners and managing agents, with documented collection. In SE16 specifically, ask the driver anything else when they call with the ETA.
What does abandoned vehicles cost in SE16?
SE16 jobs start from £60. The final price depends on the vehicle and exactly where in the district you are — call 07538 716531 and you’ll have a firm figure before anyone is dispatched.
How long until a driver reaches SE16?
Typically around 30–60 minutes. Because SE16 shares a dispatch patch with SE15, the nearest driver is often already close by.
Do parking restrictions in SE16 affect the callout?
Rarely. A recovery in progress is exactly that — we position legally, work quickly, and handle the CPZ realities of Rotherhithe as part of the job, not as your problem.
