Recovery First

Car Recovery & Vehicle Transport in Suffolk

When a vehicle can't be driven, you need one clear answer: how is it getting off the road and where is it going?

That's what SV Transport is here for. We focus on recovering and moving vehicles for customers in Suffolk, whether that's a car that has broken down, one that has been damaged in an accident, or a vehicle that simply needs taking from one place to another.

Because SV Transport also carries out mechanical work, a recovered vehicle doesn't have to be handed on to someone else. If it needs a new clutch, a timing belt or more serious engine work, you can discuss that with the same people who moved it.

Primary services

Our Recovery & Transport Services

Recovering and moving vehicles is the core of what SV Transport does. Every enquiry starts with a call or a WhatsApp message.

Car recovery

If your car can't be driven, SV Transport can discuss recovering it from where it is and taking it where it needs to go: home, a garage, or our own workshop if it needs repair.

Contact SV Transport to discuss your vehicle recovery or transport requirements.

Recovery-to-repair

One call from roadside to repaired

Most recovery companies stop once the vehicle is dropped off. With SV Transport, the same team that recovers your vehicle can also look at what's wrong with it.

  1. Recover

    Your vehicle is collected from where it has broken down, been damaged or is parked up.

  2. Transport

    It's moved to wherever you need it, including our workshop if repair is likely.

  3. Inspect

    If there's a mechanical fault, the vehicle can be looked at to find out what needs doing.

  4. Repair if required

    Where work is needed, we discuss the right repair with you before going ahead.

Why SV Transport

Practical help when your vehicle can't get there itself

  • Easy to contact

    Phone, WhatsApp or email. Use whichever suits you; no forms to fill in if you'd rather talk.

  • Recovery-focused

    Moving vehicles that can't be driven is our main job, not an add-on to a garage.

  • Vehicle transport too

    Not every car is broken. We can also discuss moving vehicles that just need to be somewhere else.

  • Clear communication

    We talk through what's involved before anything happens, so you know what to expect.

  • One point of contact

    From recovery through to repair, you deal with SV Transport rather than being passed between businesses.

  • WhatsApp enquiries

    Send photos of the vehicle and a location pin in one message. It makes arranging things much easier.

  • Mechanical support where needed

    Clutches, timing belts and chains, engines, crash damage and servicing, once the vehicle is recovered.
