Car recovery in Brighton & Hove FAQs
Can you recover from the A27, A23 or the Patcham Interchange in Brighton?
Yes. We cover the A27 Brighton Bypass, the A23 to Gatwick, the Patcham Interchange and the seafront roads. A crash at Patcham can close the bypass and back traffic to Hollingbury, so tell us the location and direction and we will dispatch the nearest operator.
Which Brighton roads are worst for breakdowns?
The Patcham Interchange where the A27 meets the A23, the A23 down from Pyecombe, and the A27 towards Falmer and the Amex are the busiest and most incident-prone, plus the steep hills inland. Our operators know them well.
How much does car recovery in Brighton & Hove cost?
Recovery starts from £90 and jump starts from £70 in Brighton & Hove. The exact price depends on your vehicle, the distance and the time, and we agree it on the phone before we dispatch, with no call-out fee.
