Permit Zones, CPZs & Narrow Roads
SE22’s residential streets weren’t built for recovery trucks — but ours work them daily, from East Dulwich across to the SE21 and SE23 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.
What Low-Clearance Garages Looks Like in SE22
Every SE22 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:
- Vehicle brought to street level
- No scraping or damage
- Compact skates & dollies
- Low-ceiling extraction
- Tight-ramp manoeuvring
Know Your Way Around SE22
We treat SE22 as home ground: East Dulwich, the boundary roads shared with SE21, SE23 and SE20, and the routes in from the Southwark side near The Shard. Name any corner of the district and a driver will know it.
The Four-Step Callout
Simple by design, because you’re standing at the roadside:
- Dial 07538 716531 and describe where you are — the nearest road, East Dulwich, anything recognisable in SE22.
- You get a live ETA on the call (about 30–60 minutes for SE22), not a callback queue.
- We winch your vehicle onto the tilting bed with all wheels off the ground.
- We deliver your vehicle safely to your home, garage or chosen address.
Frequently Asked Questions
The car park is too low for a truck — can you help?
Yes. We bring your vehicle out to street level using low-profile recovery skates, then load it onto the flatbed outside anywhere in SE22. That applies exactly the same around East Dulwich as anywhere else we cover.
What does low-clearance garages cost in SE22?
SE22 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.
Can you get to SE22 quickly at night?
Around East Dulwich we average 30–60 minutes — you’ll get a live ETA on the call, not a vague window.
My car is in a resident permit bay in SE22 — is that a problem?
Not at all. Most of our SE22 work happens on permit-controlled residential streets. The truck positions once, loads, and moves off — and if it’s your own bay outside your home, the whole job can be done from there.
