Recovery on the M6

The M6 through the West Midlands carries relentless traffic, and a breakdown between junctions here is one of the most dangerous places to stop. We know every junction, service area and refuge on the J1–J12 stretch, so we can reach you fast and get your vehicle off the carriageway safely.

Corley Services sits between J3 and J3a, and J6 — the famous “Spaghetti Junction” — is one of the most complex interchanges in the country to break down on. We know its lane layout and the quickest safe exit points, so we can load your vehicle and clear the carriageway with minimum disruption.

M6 recovery — FAQs

What should I do if I break down on the M6?
Get your vehicle onto the hard shoulder or into an emergency refuge area if you can, put your hazard lights on, and — where it’s safe — leave by the nearside door and wait behind the safety barrier, away from traffic. On a smart-motorway stretch with no hard shoulder, follow the signs and call 999 if you’re stranded in a live lane. Then call us on 07751 000 095 and we’ll come to you.
How quickly can you reach me on the M6?
We send the nearest available driver towards your junction on the M6, covering the rugby to cannock (j1–j12) from Rugby to Cannock. Exact timing depends on where you are along the J1–J12 stretch and current traffic — call us for a live ETA before you book.
Which junctions of the M6 do you cover?
We cover the J1–J12 stretch, including J1 (Rugby, M45, A426), J2 (Coventry (E), M69, A46), J3 (Coventry, Bedworth, A444), J3a (M6 Toll (south end)) and more. Call us with your junction or the nearest driver-location marker post and we’ll confirm.
What service areas and routes connect to the M6?
Corley Services sits between J3 and J3a, and J6 — the famous “Spaghetti Junction” — is one of the most complex interchanges in the country to break down on. We know its lane layout and the quickest safe exit points, so we can load your vehicle and clear the carriageway with minimum disruption. The M6 also links to the M42, M6 Toll, M69, M45, M1, which we cover too, along with local recovery in Coventry, Rugby, Nuneaton, Warwickshire.
Do you recover vehicles after an accident on the M6?
Yes. We handle accident recovery and non-runners on the M6, load damaged vehicles safely, and take them to your chosen garage, storage or home address anywhere in the UK. There’s no breakdown cover or membership needed — just a clear price agreed up front. Note that for a live-lane incident, the police or National Highways may direct which operator attends for safety.
