Top-Tier Transporters
The “slide and tilt” transporter is aptly named, as it features a bed that slides hydraulically before tilting to the ground to allow the loading of a disabled vehicle. This is particularly important when dealing with a car involved in an accident, especially when the steering, suspension, or wheels have been damaged. We operate transporters manufactured by:
Thoroughly Equipped
Almost all the transporter vehicles National Rescue provides are equipped with stingray tails. These slide and tilt backward to enable cars with low spoilers to be loaded without issue. Sliding winches permit the winch drum to be moved, accommodating vehicles regardless of whether their towing eyes are located on the left or right side.
As with our other vehicles, these transporters can boost-start both 12- and 24-volt cars, with the added security of ‘Surge Protection’ and ‘Reverse Polarity.’ They may also carry vehicles weighing up to four tonnes and have room for six passengers.

Getting the Job Done
As with the reliable repair services we provide, there is an occasional need for specialist equipment while carrying out our recovery services. We have the tools to complete the job without issue in these cases. The equipment we possess includes:
Our Service Vans
At National Rescue, our service vans are supplied with various parts. That means we have the tools to provide convenient roadside repairs for commercial and non-commercial vehicles. Chevrolet™ manufactures our vans, which can carry four passengers and the driver. The lockers fitted to the vehicle’s rear provide the storage needed to carry our tools. When roadside repairs are not an option, we’ll work to recover your vehicle without delay.
Agile Services
Small and manoeuvrable, our 4x4s are especially useful for assisting our other recovery vehicles while they carry out their work. This includes blocking off busy routes to enable the safe loading and unloading of disabled vehicles. In addition, the 4x4s can reach vehicles in multi-storey car parks and other areas where the larger recovery trucks cannot help.
Plenty of Space
Our spec lifts can carry up to six passengers plus the driver. They can also boost-start both 12- and 24-volt vehicles. These spec lifts are beneficial in cases where a car has sustained front- or rear-wheel damage. By lifting these wheels to safety, spec lifts ensure the vehicle is moved without sustaining further damage.
Sublime Spec Lifts
The spec lift, so-called because its rear lifting equipment resembles a pair of glasses, is a versatile vehicle that lifts disabled vehicles before pulling them along with the front or rear wheels suspended. This lift is suitable for the recovery of most vehicles. Moreover, all National Rescue spec lifts have specially manufactured frames that facilitate the recovery of motorbikes. Please note, however, that 4×4 vehicles, or vehicles with low front or rear spoilers, must be recovered using a full lift truck, better known as a transporter.
Finding You Quickly
All recovery vehicles we dispatch are equipped with the latest APEX RMS technology. This incorporates an advanced satellite navigation system that enables roadside and recovery technicians to access the details of the disabled vehicle and locate its whereabouts at the touch of a button.
Designed Vans
Although our service vans are mainly used for roadside repairs, they can also recover most vehicles with an A-frame or straight bar. They may also be used to quickly dispatch extra help and equipment to the scene of an accident.
IVR Training
Training and safety are vital to our company ethos, which is why we hold regular IVR (Institute of Vehicle Recovery) Training Courses throughout the year for our technicians. If you are a recovery operator and you are interested in attending a course, please contact us directly.
