Flatbed Towing (Tilting Bed), EC3-Style
Every EC3 callout runs on powered winch and recovery skates, meaning a tilting flatbed that lifts all four wheels off the road, so there is zero drivetrain wear. Here’s what’s included as standard:
- Low-angle loading for low cars
- Secure wheel straps, no chassis contact
- Ideal for automatics & AWD
- All four wheels off the road
- Zero drivetrain wear
Working Inside the Congestion Zone
Recovering a vehicle around Bank means working the congestion zone, loading bays and constant traffic. We plan the stop before we arrive, secure the vehicle fast, and move off before Cheapside backs up — routine for the crews that run EC3 and EC2 and EC4.
EC3 Local Coverage
Bank and Monument — that’s EC3, and it’s covered 24/7. The district connects to EC2, EC4 and EC1 and the wider City of London network via Cornhill, which is exactly how our drivers route in.
What Happens After You Call
No apps, no membership numbers — the EC3 callout is four steps:

- We deliver your vehicle safely to your home, garage or chosen address.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is a flatbed better than a rope or dolly?
A flatbed lifts the whole vehicle clear of the road, so there’s no wear on the gearbox, tyres or driveline — essential for automatics, 4x4s and EVs across EC3. For EC3 callouts, the dispatcher will confirm any details specific to your street.
Will flatbed towing in EC3 cost me more than elsewhere in London?
From £60 for a standard callout in EC3, quoted up front over the phone. No callout fee for the quote itself.
How long until a driver reaches EC3?
Yes — we run 24/7, and night jobs in EC3 are often quicker than daytime because the roads are clear. Expect roughly 30–60 minutes.
Can you recover a vehicle from a red route or bus lane in EC3?
Yes. Central districts like EC3 are daily work for us — our drivers know where a recovery truck can legally stop, and we keep loading time to a minimum on enforced roads. If your vehicle is somewhere awkward, tell us on the call and we’ll plan the stop before arriving.
