What a busy night on the heavies! 💪

All the low loaders and heavies are out working hard tonight. Great effort, boys — well done and keep up the good work! 👏

Most importantly, let’s get all the drivers and there trucks safely back home at the end of the night. 🚛🏠

Stay safe out there, everyone!

Well… that escalated quickly! 😅

The last month has been absolutely manic on the heavy recovery side. We’ve recovered more trucks than we’ve had hot dinners, the kettles barely had chance to boil, and we’re starting to think our heavy wreckers don’t actually know where the yard is anymore! 🚛💨

A massive welcome to the three newest members of the Heavy Recovery team! We promise the lack of sleep, endless phone calls and muddy boots are all part of the fun… most of the time! Great to have you all on board. 👏

Whether it’s an artic in a ditch, a digger that won’t dig anymore, or something so awkward everyone else scratches their heads and walks away… that’s usually when our phone rings.

The truth is, we don’t just have some of the best operators around—we’ve got the kit to match. Heavy recovery vehicles, low loaders, Landoll and Trax trailers… if it rolls, doesn’t roll, or really doesn’t want to move at all, we’ll find a way!

People often ask us, “Can you move this?”

Our usual answer? “Probably… where do you want it?” 😎

A huge thank you to all our customers for keeping us busy and to our brilliant team for putting in the hours, getting covered in mud, and somehow still turning up smiling.

If it needs recovering, lifting, loading or moving… you know who to call.

Ashley Wood Recovery – because calling your mate with a tow rope rarely ends well! 😂

We thought we’d share a couple of pictures of our T-Cab on a prom run tonight.

A very close friend, Gary Mowlam of Mowlam Transport in Weymouth, kindly asked if he could use our Scania T-Cab for his son’s prom. It was an absolute pleasure to let him use it for such a special occasion.

We hope everyone has a fantastic evening and makes some great memories!

All the best,

Ashley Wood Recovery 🚛✨
