Customer reviews
-
Dead battery in a multi-storey car park in Westminster. Adams got a recovery vehicle in even though access was tight, and dropped the car at a garage in Pimlico. Couldn't have asked for more.
-
Engine warning light turned into a hard stop on the A40 in Park Royal. Recovery driver was with me in about 45 minutes and took the car to my mechanic in Willesden. Fair pricing for central-north London.
-
Used Adams for an accident recovery in Camden. Insurer liaison was smooth and the car ended up at an approved repairer in Kentish Town. Minor hold-up on the booking call, otherwise five stars.
-
Broke down near the Blackwall Tunnel heading into Greenwich. They rerouted a driver quickly and towed the car to a garage in Charlton. Honest, polite staff — exactly what you want when you're stressed.
-
Van cut out in Tottenham on a weekday morning. Controller gave me an ETA and stuck to it, driver loaded the van carefully and took it back to our yard in Enfield. Used them twice now.
-
Called for a recovery in Fulham after the car refused to start. They arrived in around an hour and took it to my preferred garage in Hammersmith. Friendly service, sensible price.
-
Needed overnight recovery from Lewisham to a bodyshop in Bromley after a minor shunt. Driver was professional and everything was handled without fuss. Genuinely 24/7.
-
Car died at a junction in Kingston upon Thames at peak hour. Adams kept me safe by phone while the truck made its way in, and got me home to Richmond. Can't fault them.
-
Booked a recovery from the North Circular at Bounds Green. Took a little longer than expected due to traffic, but the driver was excellent and the drop-off in Wood Green was seamless.
-
ADAS warnings after a kerb hit in Finchley — they took the car to a main dealer-approved bodyshop without throwing sensors around during load.
-
Classic car with low ground clearance in Richmond — used skates and soft straps. Owner-driver clearly cared.
-
Recovered to a scrapyard in Rainham — bit of confusion on gate code but resolved over speakerphone. Job finished fine.
-
Diesel contamination in Wembley — flatbed to a garage that could drain the tank same day. Adams coordinated the drop-off slot.
-
Stolen-recovery police hold in Newham — they waited for release paperwork then moved the car to storage. Patient with the delays.
-
Heavy SUV in Barnet — winch struggled briefly on the incline but they adjusted chains and got it. Professional problem-solving.
-
Out-of-hours for a charity minibus in Southwark — invoicing matched the charity rate we were quoted. Transparent.
-
Motorcycle collection wasn’t their everyday job but they brought appropriate ties and blankets — delivered to my mechanic in Enfield intact.
-
Rain-soaked night recovery in Brent Cross — cab was dry and warm while we waited for the all-clear to load. Tiny scuff on sill from ramp alignment, noted on paperwork.
-
EV with tow-mode confusion in Croydon — driver knew the menu sequence to neutral before winching. Safer than my first call elsewhere.
