First: get yourself safe

  • If you can still move, come off at the next exit or into an emergency refuge area (the orange bays) and stop there.
  • On a smart-motorway stretch with no hard shoulder, get as far to the left as possible, hazards on, and leave by the left-hand door to stand behind the barrier if it’s safe.
  • If you’re stuck in a live lane and can’t get clear, keep your seatbelt on, hazards on, and dial 999 — then call us.
  • Once safe, call 07301 118118 — we’ll stay on the line and get a driver moving.

M56 recovery, every junction, every hour

  • J1–J4 (M60 – Wythenshawe): the Manchester end and the run out towards the airport.
  • J5–J7 (Manchester Airport – Bowdon): Manchester Airport (J5), Altrincham and the A556 link to the M6.
  • J8–J12 (Bowdon – Runcorn): Runcorn, the Mersey Gateway bridge and the approach to the river.
  • J14–J16 (Helsby – Chester): Chester, Ellesmere Port and the A55 on into North Wales.

What we recover

The honest answer: if it’s broken down, we can move it. Cars, vans and light commercials, caravans and motorhomes, horse boxes and livestock trailers, motorcycles, prestige, classic and supercars, 4x4s, taxis, minibuses, electric vehicles, trailers — and anything else on wheels. Onward transport to your home, your garage, or anywhere in the UK.

Not listed? Call us anyway. Any time, any place, any vehicle, any situation — that’s not a slogan, it’s how we operate.

Why drivers on the M56 call K9

  • No membership required — you pay only when you need us
  • Airport and North Wales gateway knowledge — the airport, Runcorn and the A55 are familiar territory
  • Smart-motorway ready — we know the refuge areas and the no-hard-shoulder stretches
  • Clear pricing before we set off — no surprises at the roadside

★★★★★

“Unreal service — the best I’ve had, and I’ve broken down 100s of times in my business vans. Onsite within 30 minutes and the van recovered straight away, no issues. We were on the M5 hard shoulder. Highly recommended!”

— Jake Payne

★★★★★

“Excellent service from the person who took my emergency call to the lads who picked me and my car up. Very professional, well spoken and respectful. I’d recommend K9 to anybody. Absolutely brilliant — 5 stars.”

— Andrew Chambers

★★★★★

“I was broken down on the road, stuck and feeling hopeless. I found K9 on Google and took a chance — and didn’t regret it at all. Absolutely fantastic service, professional and straightforward. Loved it.”

— Alicia

Can you recover from the Mersey Gateway bridge?

Yes — the bridge and its approaches at Runcorn are covered, day or night.

Can you take my vehicle anywhere in the UK?

Anywhere — home, garage, or the far end of the country.
