Local help when your car cannot continue
A breakdown is stressful enough without uncertainty about who is coming or what happens next. When you call AL Recovery, you speak to a local recovery operator who can assess the situation and arrange safe collection.
We recover cars from roadsides, homes, workplaces, retail car parks and other accessible locations across Dundalk. If the car cannot be repaired safely where it is, we can transport it to your chosen garage or another suitable destination.

- Flat batteries, punctures and damaged wheels

Car recovery for the problems drivers face every day
If you are unsure whether the car is safe to drive, stop and ask. Continuing with a serious warning light, damaged tyre, overheating engine or collision damage can create a larger repair bill and put other road users at risk.
Car will not start
We can recover vehicles that will not start at a house, workplace, garage, dealership or roadside location.
Mechanical failure
Engine, gearbox, cooling and electrical faults can leave a car unsafe or unable to move under its own power.
Tyre or wheel damage
If a safe roadside repair is not possible, we can load the car and take it to a tyre centre or garage.
Accident damage
A damaged vehicle can be collected and moved to your preferred repairer, storage location or other agreed destination.
Wrong fuel
Do not start the engine. We can recover the vehicle and transport it to a suitable garage for professional attention.
Unsafe to drive
Steering, brake, suspension or dashboard warnings should not be ignored when the car no longer feels safe.
