Permit Zones, CPZs & Narrow Roads
W12’s residential streets weren’t built for recovery trucks — but ours work them daily, from Shepherd’s Bush across to the W11 and W13 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.
Low-Clearance Garages in W12: What You Get
Vehicle stuck in a low-ceiling car park? We use compact skates and low-profile equipment to extract it where a standard truck can’t fit. On every W12 job that means:
- Vehicle brought to street level
- No scraping or damage
- Compact skates & dollies
- Low-ceiling extraction
- Tight-ramp manoeuvring
Inside the W12 District
The W12 district takes in Shepherd’s Bush, sitting within Hammersmith and Fulham. It borders W11, W13 and W10, 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.

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 W12. In W12 specifically, ask the driver anything else when they call with the ETA.
Will low-clearance garages in W12 cost me more than elsewhere in London?
W12 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.
What’s the realistic ETA for Shepherd’s Bush?
Yes — we run 24/7, and night jobs in W12 are often quicker than daytime because the roads are clear. Expect roughly 30–60 minutes.
The streets around Shepherd’s Bush are really narrow — can a recovery truck get in?
Yes. We match the vehicle to the street, and drivers who work W12 weekly know which roads take a full flatbed and which need a more compact truck. Tell us your road name and we’ll send the right one first time.
