What Happens When You Call for Breakdown Recovery?
When you contact us, we will ask for your location, the direction you were travelling, the make and model of the vehicle and a brief description of what happened. Details such as warning lights, unusual noises, smoke, a flat tyre or a complete loss of power can help us understand what equipment may be required. You should also tell us whether the vehicle is obstructing traffic, whether there are vulnerable passengers present and where you would like the vehicle taken.
Safety should remain your priority while assistance is being arranged. Switch on your hazard lights, move away from live traffic where it is safe to do so and avoid attempting repairs in a dangerous position. Our guide explaining what to do when your car suddenly breaks down provides further information for drivers.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently asked questions from our hundreds of breakdown and recovery clients in and around Basingstoke.
If your vehicle begins losing power or develops a serious fault, try to move it to a safe position away from moving traffic where possible. Switch on your hazard lights, apply the handbrake and turn the wheels away from the road if you are stopped on an incline. On a motorway or high-speed road, leave the vehicle from the side furthest from traffic when it is safe and wait behind a barrier. Avoid standing between your vehicle and approaching traffic or attempting repairs in a dangerous location. Once you are safe, call Adams & Sons with your road name, direction of travel, nearest junction or landmark and vehicle details.

If you are unsure, explain the situation when you call and we can discuss the available recovery options.

Clear destination details also allow us to provide an appropriate estimate before the recovery is arranged.
