Motorcycle recovery FAQs

Do you recover mopeds and delivery scooters?

Yes — every size, from 50cc scooters to big tourers, strapped and moved safely.

A courier down near Old Street: how the call actually runs

Picture a food delivery rider whose moped cuts dead on the approach to Old Street roundabout at half past six, boxes still strapped to the rack. The call to K9 gives the junction, the direction of travel and whether the bike is upright or down. That is enough for one of our 3,000 drivers to be pointed the right way before a single other question gets asked.

On arrival the rider is walked off the carriageway first, bike second. A moped left leaning on a kerb near Bank junction or Shoreditch High Street is a hazard to buses and cyclists, so it is chocked and strapped onto the flatbed before anything else happens. Fairings, mirrors and panniers are checked and padded wherever they sit against a strap.

The price for the job is agreed on WhatsApp before the driver sets off, never haggled over at the roadside once the truck has arrived. The rider is free to carry on to the next drop by bus or tube while the bike is taken onward, usually to a home address, a dealer or a specialist workshop.

Where a motorcycle recovery gets awkward in London

Most London bike recoveries are straightforward, but a few situations slow things down and are worth knowing before you dial.

• Vauxhall Cross and Elephant and Castle: wide, fast gyratories where a stopped bike has to be reached and lifted clear quickly rather than left waiting for a gap in traffic.
• Euston Road bus lanes: a flatbed cannot simply pull in, so the driver often parks close by and wheels the bike to the truck instead.
• Holborn gyratory and Shoreditch High Street: one-way systems and tight turns mean the pickup point needs to be the exact side of the road, not just the street name.
• Mews streets and controlled parking zones around Brick Lane: narrow entrances can rule out a full-size flatbed, so a smaller recovery vehicle is sent in its place.
• Congestion Charge and ULEZ boundaries: our drivers factor the zone and the time of day into the job themselves, so it never lands on the rider as a surprise.

Whichever of these applies, naming the junction or the exact street when you call means the right size of recovery vehicle is sent on the first trip, not the second.

What to have ready before you call, and where the bike usually goes

Calling from the roadside goes faster if you already know three things: whether the bike will go into neutral, whether it is upright or on its side, and the exact road or junction, since a postcode alone can cover several streets in central London.

Night-time breakdowns near Bank junction or Old Street are handled the same way as a Tuesday lunchtime job. London is where our driver network runs deepest, so a bike down at two in the morning is rarely waiting long for help to arrive.

Most riders have the bike taken home or straight to a specialist workshop rather than leave it at the roadside overnight. If the bike is hired, leased, or belongs to a delivery platform, mention that when you call so it is dropped at the right address. A quick photo of the damage or the fault light, sent over on WhatsApp, often helps the driver bring the right kit on the first visit rather than making a second trip.
