24*7 Car recovery Bedford
Car recovery in Bedford from A2B Tow, 24 hours a day
If your car has broken down, been in an accident or simply will not start in Bedford, A2B Tow can help. We are experienced vehicle recovery specialists based at 29 Farley Hill, Luton, and Bedford is one of the core areas we cover alongside Luton, St Albans, Hatfield, Hemel Hempstead and Milton Keynes. Our car recovery Bedford service runs 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including nights and weekends, on 07493 116161.
We do more than tow. We assess the problem first, and where it can be sorted at the roadside with a jump start, tyre assistance or wrong-fuel recovery, we do that so you are not paying for a tow you do not need. Where the car cannot be safely repaired or driven, we recover it to your home, your own garage, a dealership or another destination you choose, not just the nearest workshop. Our recovery specialists and towing services are fully insured.

Roadside help first, towing when it is needed
Flat battery or a car that will not start
A flat battery is one of the most common reasons a car will not start. Tell us where you are and what the car is doing, and where a jump start is the right fix our trained technicians will carry it out so you can continue your journey. If the fault turns out to be more than the battery, we can recover the car to the garage of your choice. Find out more about our jump start car service.
Flat tyres, wrong fuel and accident recovery
We also provide flat tyre assistance, wrong-fuel recovery and recovery after an accident when the car cannot be driven away. If a car has to be moved without its wheels turning, a flat bed tow may be the right option, and we allocate suitable equipment for the vehicle type and its condition. For a wider look at what we do, see our car recovery and tow truck service pages.

How our car recovery works
- Get safe first. If you have broken down somewhere dangerous, move to a place of relative safety where possible, use your hazard lights where appropriate and keep clear of moving traffic. In an emergency, contact the emergency services. Follow the Highway Code guidance on breakdowns.
- Call us on 07493 116161. The line is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
- Give us the details. Your exact location, road name or a nearby landmark, the car’s make, model and registration, what the problem is, whether the car can move or is damaged, and where you want it taken if it needs recovering.
- Assessment and quote. We work out whether the problem can be dealt with at the roadside or whether the car needs transporting, and you get a free, no-obligation quotation before anything is arranged, with no hidden charges.
- Attendance and recovery. A recovery vehicle attends and carries out the roadside fix where possible. If the car cannot be safely repaired or driven, it is loaded and taken to your home, your chosen garage, a dealership or another agreed destination.
Car recovery Bedford: common questions
How quickly can you get to me in Bedford?
We cannot promise an exact arrival time. How long it takes depends on your location, traffic, the type of vehicle and access. When you call, tell us exactly where you are and we will tell you what we can do.
Are you available at night and at weekends?
Yes. Our phone line is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including nights and weekends.
How much does car recovery cost?
There is no fixed price because every job is different. The price depends on your location, traffic conditions, the vehicle type and condition, access requirements and the destination. We give you a free, no-obligation quotation before the service is arranged, with no hidden charges.
Can you take my car to my own garage instead of the nearest one?
Yes. We can recover your car to your home, your own garage or workshop, a dealership or another destination you choose.
Can you fix it at the roadside instead of towing it?
Often, yes. We assess the problem first, and a jump start, flat tyre assistance or wrong-fuel recovery can sort many situations without a tow. If the car cannot be safely repaired or driven, we recover it instead.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our recovery specialists and towing services are fully insured.
My car will not start on my driveway or has failed its MOT. Can you move it?
Yes. We arrange planned, non-emergency transport too. Let us know the vehicle type, its condition, the collection point and the destination so we can bring suitable equipment.
What should I do while I wait?
Stay somewhere safe and away from moving traffic, keep your hazard lights on where appropriate and follow the Highway Code guidance for breakdowns. If you are on a motorway, follow the motorway rules in that guidance and, if anyone is in danger, call the emergency services.
