McAllisters Recovery was founded in 1974 by Frank McAllister.

McAllisters Recovery was the first UK recovery business to establish a web site presence on the Internet. Internal and external e-mail are now used extensively to assist company management. Live digital images from major incidents are transmitted live by mobile phones with infrared links via laptop computers back to the control room for incident management. 

Company equipment is the latest available to the recovery industry, including a specialist motorcycle for rapid response and job assessment. Fully equipped roadside service vehicles include large LGV recovery vehicles with Underlift equipment and heavy duty Lorry Mounted Crane. There is also a specialist air cushion recovery unit to assist with righting overturned vehicles.

All recovery employees are highly skilled and trained to assess and carry out all types of specialised recovery.

The organisation is capable of recovering anything from a motorcycle to the largest vehicle legally allowed on roads at this time.

Professionals in action



The operation is controlled by a 24–hour Control Centre using the latest computer technology and satellite tracking and management system. The Control Centre is staffed on a shift basis, permitting immediate response to any incident.

The operational area is within Surrey and Hampshire (better known as the County Sound area, named after a local radio station). Although this is the main theatre of operation the organisation is prepared to travel nation-wide and onto the continent.

Fire Services have also requested the support of the company in other areas, to travel to incidents involving fuel tankers and other vehicles carrying hazardous loads. Suitably trained operators are available within the company to perform these recovery operations.

The majority of work comes from, Surrey Police Authority, Transport, Bus and Coach Companies, Motoring Clubs and Associations, local Dealerships and the general motoring public.
