Melksham grew up around the Avon Rubber Company, which moved into a disused cloth mill on the River Avon in 1889, produced its first bicycle tyres in 1900 and car tyres by 1906, and was turning out one and a half million tyres a year from the site by the 1960s as Cooper-Avon Tyres, until Cooper announced its closure in 2022. That century of industry still shapes the roads around the old riverside works differently from the quieter town centre. A flat battery near the old works, a breakdown by the River Avon, or a car on the A350/A3102 junction all need an operator who knows the town, which is exactly what car recovery in Melksham SN12 arranges through CityGrip.

Local coverage across Melksham
We cover the whole of SN12: Melksham town centre, former Avon Rubber works border, River Avon border, Melksham railway station border, King George V Playing Field border. Whether you are on a main road, in a town-centre car park, a residents’ street or a farm track on the edge of town, we can reach you and get the vehicle moving, the battery started, or the car safely recovered.
Our network knows the key Melksham routes: the A350 and A3102 meeting at the town, and the approach to the former Avon Rubber works, founded when the company moved into a disused cloth mill by the River Avon in 1889 and grew, after producing its first bicycle tyres in 1900 and car tyres by 1906, into a plant turning out one and a half million tyres a year by the 1960s. The 1956 merger with George Spencer Moulton united the pioneers of the rubber industry in the west of England, and the site continued as Cooper-Avon Tyres after a 1997 sale until Cooper announced its closure in 2022.
Melksham’s identity as a genuine industrial river town, built up around more than a century of tyre and rubber manufacturing on the Avon, still shapes the roads around the old factory site differently from the quieter town centre and King George V Playing Field. The A350/A3102 junction carries steady through-traffic between Chippenham and Trowbridge, the town centre carries everyday shopping traffic, and the riverside site’s ongoing redevelopment since the 2022 factory closure brings its own construction traffic. Car recovery in Melksham SN12 tells the old industrial riverside apart from the town centre’s everyday pattern.

What to do if you break down in Melksham
A few quick steps keep you safe while you wait for recovery.
Get to safety
Pull over as far from traffic as you can, switch on your hazard lights and, if it is safe, leave the vehicle from the side away from passing traffic.
Make yourself visible
Put on a hi-vis if you have one and use a warning triangle on normal roads. On a motorway or red route, stay behind a barrier and do not place a triangle.
