24 Hour Recovery Leicester
Breakdowns don't wait for office hours. Neither do we. MwR Recovery is on the road 24 hours a day, 7 days a week across Leicester and the Midlands.
Whether it's 3am on the A46, a Sunday morning on the ring road, or a bank holiday evening in a supermarket car park, a broken-down vehicle needs a fast answer. Our 24-hour recovery service in Leicester is genuinely 24/7 — a real phone answered by a real driver, not an out-of-hours voicemail.
We keep a rota of drivers and trucks on standby every night of the year, so overnight response times in Leicester and the county are typically 15–30 minutes. That's often quicker than large national breakdown clubs, whose overnight cover is stretched thin across the whole country.
Round-the-clock cover across Leicester
Our 24-hour service covers every LE postcode and the roads that connect them, including the A6, A46, A47, A50, A426, A563, A607, M1 and M69. We recover from motorway hard shoulders (working with Highways England / National Highways where required), dual carriageways, city streets and rural lanes.
For overnight callouts we prioritise your safety. If you're on a fast road we'll advise you where to wait, keep you on the line while we're en route, and use our light bars and cones to make the scene safe while we load the vehicle.

What we handle after hours
The overnight service is the same as our daytime service — nothing is stripped back. That means flat batteries, misfuels, lockouts, punctures, warning-light shutdowns, accident recovery and long-distance transport are all available at any hour.
We also pick up vehicles after minor collisions and take them to a safe overnight location, so you can deal with insurance and repairs during working hours without leaving your car at the roadside.
Late night safety
If you break down at night we'll ask a few quick questions: are you and any passengers safe, is the vehicle in a live lane, and are the hazards on? Where possible we stay on the phone while we drive to you. On motorways we always recommend leaving the vehicle, standing behind the barrier and calling National Highways on 0300 123 5000 as well as us, then letting us take over recovery once the scene is safe.
Fair overnight pricing
Some recovery firms add heavy 'unsocial hours' surcharges after 10pm. Our overnight rates are moderate and always quoted up-front on the phone. You'll know exactly what a nighttime job costs before we set off — no meter running, no hidden extras.
Frequently asked questions
Are you really open 24 hours?
Yes. There's a driver on the phone every hour of every day, including Christmas, New Year and bank holidays.
How long will I wait overnight?
Typical overnight arrival in the LE area is 15–30 minutes. We'll give you an honest ETA when you call.
Do you charge extra at night?

What if I break down on the motorway?
Move to a safe place, call National Highways on 0300 123 5000, then call us. We'll recover the vehicle as soon as the scene is safe.
