Vehicle recovery ยท London and the whole UK
Battery changes in London
If your battery has given up, we come to you and change it where the vehicle is: on your drive, in a car park or at the roadside.
Battery changes from S&S Transportation and Recovery Services
Batteries rarely give warning. One morning the engine turns over slowly, the next it doesn't turn at all. When that happens, call us and we'll come to the vehicle.
We check that the battery really is the problem first. If it is, we fit a replacement where the vehicle stands, so there's no tow and no trip to a garage. If a jump start is all it needs, we'll tell you.
Give us the make, model and year when you call so we know which battery the vehicle takes. We cover London and the whole UK, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
When you might need this
- Clicking when you turn the key
- Dim dashboard lights, or nothing at all
- An engine that turns over slowly

Step by step
From your call, to back on the road
You call us
Tell us where you are, what you drive and what's happened.
You get an ETA
We tell you how long we'll be before you hang up. Our guarantee is a maximum of 1 hour.
We try to fix it there
Jump starts, battery changes and diagnostic checks at the roadside, where that will get you going.
Or we take it away
If it can't be fixed where it stands, we load it and take it to the address you choose.
How quickly can you get to me?
We guarantee a maximum ETA of 1 hour, wherever you are in the UK and whatever time you call. When you ring, we'll tell you how long we expect to be.
Which areas do you cover?
We're based in London and cover the whole UK, including Essex, Kent, Suffolk, Norwich, Ipswich, Southampton, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds and Newcastle.
Is there a call-out charge?
It depends on when you call. At some times of day we don't charge a call-out fee at all, so ask us when you ring.
Can you move more than one vehicle at once?
Yes. Our car transporters carry two or three vehicles at a time, so traders can move several cars from A to B in one trip.
Do you recover vans, lorries and buses as well as cars?
Yes. We recover cars, vans, lorries and buses, and we move caravans too. Tell us what the vehicle is when you call so we send the right truck.
