We also cover: Chislehurst, Hayes, Penge, Lewisham, Eltham, Bexley, Swanley, and surrounding areas for accident recovery.
Making an Insurance Claim
Recovery after a collision is often part of an insurance claim. Whoever you're insured with, we can help:
Recovery to your insurer's approved repairer. Tell us where your vehicle needs to go and we'll arrange recovery to that repairer, your own garage, or your home.
Documentation for your claim. Your operator can photograph and document the vehicle's condition so you have a record for your insurer.
If your insurance company has already arranged recovery, you may not need us. If not — or if you'd rather not wait — send us your details and we'll get you an upfront price.
Accident Recovery FAQs
The simplest jobs start at £50. Beyond that, your price depends on the service, the time of day and the situation, including the vehicle's condition, the distance and whether specialist equipment is needed. We get prices from operators covering your area and WhatsApp you one fixed quote, so you see the full amount before you book, with no hidden fees.
Sanu Recovery is a coordination platform: we get prices from independent operators and send you one upfront quote, then the operator you accept recovers your damaged vehicle from the accident scene to your chosen destination - your home, a local garage, or your insurer's approved repairer. Requests are handled 24/7, whoever you are insured with.
Operators use specialist recovery vehicles including flatbeds and low-loaders to safely transport accident-damaged vehicles. Operators secure your vehicle properly to prevent further damage during transport. They can handle vehicles with structural damage, deployed airbags, wheel damage, and major mechanical failure.
AA Accident Assist is a separate add-on service, not included in standard breakdown cover. Many AA members find they're not covered for accident recovery. Sanu Recovery arranges accident recovery with one upfront price, whether you have breakdown cover or not.
After a car accident: 1) Check for injuries and call 999 if needed, 2) Make the scene safe with hazard lights, 3) Exchange details with other parties, 4) Take photos of damage and the scene, 5) Call your insurance company, 6) Call us on 078 3333 93 09 to arrange recovery. Don't admit fault at the scene. If on a motorway, move to a safe location behind the barrier.
After a car accident, it's normal to feel shocked or anxious. Talk to friends, family, or professionals about how you're feeling. Take time to rest and recover. If you experience ongoing stress, nightmares, or fear of driving, consider speaking to a counselor or your GP. Focus on what you can control, like ensuring your vehicle is safely recovered and insurance claims are handled properly.
