Professional Service

Vehicles end up in unexpected places. A car slides off an icy road into a ditch, a van gets stuck on a soft field entrance, a tractor bogs down in waterlogged ground, a truck overturns on a bending country road. These situations require specialist winch and extraction equipment — not just a standard tow truck.

East Coast Mechanics carries dedicated winching and crane equipment capable of extracting vehicles from virtually any situation. From a small car in a roadside ditch to a heavy truck on its side, we have the tools and expertise to recover safely without causing further damage.

  • Cars and vans in roadside ditches
  • Vehicles stuck in mud, soft ground or fields
  • Overturned and rolled vehicles
  • Trucks and HGVs off the carriageway
  • Agricultural vehicles and plant in difficult terrain
  • Soft sand or beach extractions
  • Available 24 hours, 7 days a week

FAQs

Answers to the questions we hear most often.

Can you recover a vehicle that has rolled over?
Yes — we have crane and winching equipment capable of uprighting and recovering overturned vehicles. Safety assessment is carried out before any extraction attempt.
What if my vehicle is in a flooded area?
Flood recovery requires careful assessment of ground conditions and vehicle stability. Call us directly and we'll advise on the safest approach.
Can you recover agricultural vehicles stuck in fields?
Yes. Tractors, combines and other agricultural machinery stuck in waterlogged or soft fields is a common job for us — particularly in winter months.
Will winching damage my vehicle?
When carried out by experienced operators using proper attachment points, winching causes minimal additional damage. We always assess the safest extraction method before beginning.
Do I need to be present for the winch-out?
It is helpful but not always required. We do need access to the vehicle and ideally the keys.
