How Direct Recovery works
This is a recovery directory, not a membership club and not a national patrol. Search by postcode or location, see nearby agents, tap Call to connect, and pay the agent you choose.
1. Enter a postcode or share location
Tell us where the vehicle is. Full UK postcode works best; share location if you are beside it.
2. See the closest agents
We list nearby independent recovery operators — name and distance when available.
3. Call the one you want
Tap Call to dial them. Agree the job and price with the agent on the phone.
4. Pay the driver you accept
You pick who to go with. Pay the attending agent. There is no platform commission taken from that job price.
What it usually costs
Nearby recoveries for a standard car typically land around £90–£120. A 20–40 mile A-to-B move is often £120–£160. Confirm price and arrival with the agent when you call.
Who does the work
Make Me Busy Ltd runs this directory and the Make Me Busy agent app. We are connected with independent recovery services across the UK. You pay the agent you accept. There is no commission taken from that job price.
