Coleshill LCV recovery - tipper, dropside, box van
Light commercial recovery - tippers, dropsides and box vans handled inside 3.5t plated weight.
Light commercial recovery in Coleshill means a truck that can carry a plated 3.5t vehicle plus its bed, sides and any residual load - with chassis loops around the right points and nothing anywhere near a hydraulic ram.
Coleshill — what we see on the ground
Postcodes across B46 sit inside the North Warwickshire Borough Council area, and light commercial vehicles tend to break down where they are being used — school runs near Coleshill Manor, deliveries into the industrial estate, or on residential streets where a jump-start is often faster than a tow.
Common lcv callouts we see in Coleshill
- Tipper hydraulics stuck up or down
- Twin-wheel rear puncture leaving the vehicle undriveable
- Loaded LCV over plated weight - needs partial transfer first
- PTO fault on refuse or delivery vehicles
- Standard diesel faults - DPF, turbo, injectors
Loading a lcv properly
3.5t flatbed, chassis strap points identified. Weight band: 2.5-3.5 tonnes (dropside, tipper, box van).
- Confirm plated weight before we load
- Tipper beds always locked down before straps
- Dropside sides folded and pinned to reduce overhang

FAQs — LCV recovery in Coleshill
Loaded LCV over plated weight in Coleshill?
We arrange a partial transfer to another vehicle first. We will not carry an overweight LCV - it puts our operator licence at risk.
Commercial vehicle recovery contract for Coleshill depots?
Yes - fixed rates by postcode, single invoice per week. Ring the office to set up.
VAT invoice for the recovery in Coleshill?
Yes - included on request.
Tipper stuck in the up position in Coleshill - can you recover it?
Yes but the bed has to come down first. We carry a hand pump and know the emergency descent procedure on the main tipper makes. If it will not come down we flatbed with the bed supported.
