Car recovery

When your vehicle can’t go any further after a breakdown or accident, our car recovery service is ready to help right away. BRL is called in by various insurers and leasing companies to recover stranded vehicles quickly and safely, or to transport them to a garage, body repair centre or other location.

How we work:

  • Our recovery operator assesses on site whether an emergency repair is possible
  • If needed, the car is towed safely with one of our recovery vehicles
  • You are taken to a safe place as quickly as possible, for example after a breakdown on the motorway
  • We coordinate the next steps with your breakdown service or insurer

Our people are not only experts, they also look out for your safety and that of other road users.

Need your car towed?

In most cases of car recovery, we tow the car away, but not every call ends that way. Sometimes the damage is limited and an emergency repair is enough, for example for a flat tyre, a dead battery or a loose part.

If it’s safe and technically sound, we get you back on the road straight away so you can drive to a garage yourself. Our operators carry the tools and materials to do this. That saves you unnecessary towing and time.

Boat recovery

As well as car recovery, BRL specialises in boat recovery. A sunken boat often needs to be raised quickly, not only to limit further damage, but also to prevent environmental damage or danger to other water users.

Our approach:

  • We start by pumping the boat dry
  • We then lift the boat with a crane truck
  • Depending on the situation, the vessel is stored, transported or handed over to a recovery location

BRL has experience recovering boats of all sizes, from small sloops to larger motorboats. We carry out many boat recoveries in South Holland every year.
