The Service

Complete Roadside Solution

Our recovery service is entirely self-contained. We arrive with professional-grade extraction equipment, UN-approved waste containers, fresh correct fuel, replacement filters, and all safety PPE needed for roadside and forecourt operations.

From the moment we arrive, our technician assesses the situation, confirms the contamination type, and performs the complete drain, flush, and re-prime — all on the spot. In 95% of cases, you drive away within an hour of our arrival.

FAQs

Common Questions

What types of wrong fuel do you handle?expand_more
We handle all misfuel types: petrol in diesel (most common), diesel in petrol, AdBlue in the fuel tank, petrol in a hybrid diesel system, and mixed fuel contamination scenarios. Call us regardless of the situation and we'll advise immediately.
Do you work 24 hours a day?expand_more
Yes — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year including Christmas Day and bank holidays. Misfueling doesn't follow a schedule and neither do we. Our dispatch operates around the clock.
How much does wrong fuel recovery cost?expand_more
Our pricing is transparent and fixed — no hidden charges. The exact cost depends on your vehicle type, location, and whether the engine was started. Call us for an instant quote. We'll give you a confirmed price before any technician is dispatched.
Will I need to go to a garage afterwards?expand_more
In the vast majority of cases — no. If the engine was not started and the drain is completed swiftly, the vehicle is fully functional after our service and requires no garage visit. If the engine was run on contaminated fuel, we'll assess for any further issues on the spot and advise honestly.
Do you cover all vehicle types?expand_more
Yes. We handle all vehicle types: cars, SUVs, vans, light commercials, HGVs, and plant equipment. For HGVs and larger vehicles we deploy specialist heavy-duty equipment. Just tell us the vehicle type when you call and we'll dispatch the right unit.
