The guys are honestly sent from heaven. My partner got into a car accident and needed to be seen by paramedics. An ACE recovery truck drove past us and offered to tow our vehicle and store it until our insurance got in touch. And they did just that. Despite it being the end of their shift and we were stood in the pouring rain!.! At one point we needed some extra pictures, so instead of saying that we needed to go down, ACE recovery took many photographs for us then sent them on to us.
Whenever we got in touch with the company they would enquire as to the health of my partner which meant a lot. I will absolutely be recommending this company to literally anybody who will listen to me! The towing staff were so compassionate and understanding. Amazing professionals!

Highly recommend Ace Recovery. Myself and my mum was stranded at Rivington services after speaking to Rac and AA and being told 3hrs to wait I took the chance and googled local recovery. Ace came up, I rang and spoke to lovely gent ( sorry with all the stress i forgot to take his name) he provided a price and said his driver would be there within the hour. I then recieved txt with Drivers details. Mo arrived within the hour and couldnt do more for us. extremely friendly and

What an Ace service We called Ace in a panic late Friday afternoon as our daughters car needed recovering urgently from Bolton to Manchester. They were very polite, friendly & amazingly efficient, and a very reasonable price. A special mention to Cooby who was a true knight in shining armour, waiting around for insurance confirmation & keeping us informed as to progress

Brilliant speed of service, and at very reasonable prices. My wife is pregnant and I really didn't want her waiting around in the cold. Theses guys were with her in 15 minutes, dropped the car at a garage and even offered her a lift home. Fantastic, would definitely recommend giving them a call.

Good friendly service competitively priced. The whole job from making a call to the vehicle dropping off back at home with over a 12 mile journey took just over 1 hour. I recommend this company. Thanks again lads. Home safe and sound. Colin.

Absolute knights in shining amour, after being stranded for hours with every company i called refusing to come out for being to busy or non members and the joining office closed with it being bank holiday id given up all hope of getting home, untill i accidentally stumbled on these guys, so down to earth and actually cared about helping us get home they sent Mohammad to help us out who showed up in about 20mins of sending our location so good to see a smiling face pull up. in a sea of money grabbers and cons their a true credit to the community. I hope i never need to use a recovery service again but if i do their numbers saved. i cant thank you guys enough
