Broken down in United Kingdom
Getting your car home from United Kingdom
In the United Kingdom traffic drives on the left and distances and speeds are in miles. If you break down on a motorway, switch on your hazard lights, get out on the left-hand side and wait behind the barrier. On smart motorways without a permanent hard shoulder there are orange-marked emergency areas; try to reach one. Call 999 or 112 if you are in danger. Transport to the Netherlands always involves a ferry, for example to Hook of Holland, Rotterdam or IJmuiden, so we plan every job in advance. For immediate roadside help, call a local service first; we then arrange the transport. If a local recovery firm has removed the car, send us that firm's address. Since Brexit, a car bought in the UK comes with customs paperwork; you arrange the import into the Netherlands yourself.

Broken down on the motorway: hazard lights on, high-visibility vest on, get out on the barrier side and wait behind the crash barrier. Call 999 or 112 in an emergency, then +31 6 14 68 70 30.
Hazard lights on
Switch on your hazard lights straight away and, if you still can, pull over as far right as possible: the hard shoulder or an emergency lay-by.
Vest on, exit on the safe side
Put on a high-visibility vest before you get out and leave the car on the barrier side. Don't leave anyone inside.
Wait behind the barrier
Everyone waits behind the crash barrier, well away from the car.
Call 999 or 112 in danger
Car in a live lane, smoke or fire, or anyone hurt? Call 999 or 112. Then call or WhatsApp us on +31 6 14 68 70 30.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about towing in United Kingdom
Straight answers. Question not listed? Call +31 6 14 68 70 30.
How does a car from England get back to the Netherlands?
By ferry. We collect the car, load it onto our flatbed and take a crossing to the Netherlands or to the continent. The crossing depends on where the car is; the price for the whole trip is fixed in advance.
I bought a car in the UK. What do I need to arrange?
Since Brexit, a car from the UK is an import from outside the EU and needs customs paperwork. Ask the seller for the registration document (V5C) and the receipt. We transport the car; you handle customs and RDW registration yourself.
How much does it cost to bring my car from United Kingdom to the Netherlands?
That depends on where in United Kingdom the car is, the destination and the state of the car. You get one fixed price for the whole trip upfront; we agree it before we set off and nothing is added afterwards.
Can I call or WhatsApp you from United Kingdom?
Yes. Call or WhatsApp +31 6 14 68 70 30, 24 hours a day, every day. On WhatsApp, ideally send your location or the address of the garage or recovery yard where the car is.
How long until my car is back in the Netherlands from United Kingdom?
That depends on the distance and the planning. We tell you honestly when we agree the price; we never promise times we cannot keep.
Do I need a membership to have my car collected from United Kingdom?
No. You don't need to be a member of any breakdown organisation. You get one fixed price for this trip upfront and pay only for that trip.
