Breakdowns rarely happen at a convenient time, or in a convenient place.

If you do find yourself stuck:

✅ get somewhere safe if you can
✅ switch your hazards on
✅ exit the vehicle safely when appropriate (away from the flow of traffic)
✅ stay well clear of moving traffic

The roadside is no place for guesswork.

Phew! What a month! This summer has certainly kept us busy. ☀️

We've had packed holiday roads, long distance recoveries, plenty of breakdowns on country lanes, a fair number of illegally parked vehicles and everything in between! Our superstar team have been flat out keeping people, and vehicles moving!

Now the weather has returned to more acceptable levels, the schools are back and holiday traffic is easing, September is bringing a different rhythm to our roads.

We've got busier morning commutes once more, shorter days, and changing weather, but whatever the season brings, our standards don't change.

24/7. Professional. Prepared. Ready when we’re needed.

“I’ll only be five minutes.”

A sentence responsible for a surprising number of much longer afternoons.

Before leaving your vehicle, please check that you’re not:

❌ Blocking a driveway.
❌ Restricting emergency access.
❌ Parked on double yellow lines.
❌ Obstructing traffic.
❌ Or relying on hazard lights to create a temporary parking bay.

The beach will still be there after you’ve found a proper space.

Your vehicle, however, may not be.

Enjoy the weekend and park responsibly. ☀️

Some recoveries are a little further off the beaten track than others…

This car had ended up stranded in the middle of the New Forest, so reaching it and getting it safely back out needed careful planning, the right equipment and a coordinated approach from our team.

Awkward location, limited access and plenty of obstacles to work around - but another job completed safely and successfully by Team GRS. ✅

Heading out for a summer day trip or family holiday?

Five minutes spent checking your vehicle before leaving could save you several hours at the roadside.

Before setting off:
✅ Check your tyre pressures and tread
✅ Check your oil and coolant levels
✅ Make sure you have enough fuel or charge
✅ Look for warning lights
✅ Check that your lights are working
✅ Keep water and a charged phone with you

And perhaps don’t wait until you’re already stuck in beach traffic to acknowledge the warning light that appeared last Tuesday…

Safe travels from everyone at GRS.

☀️ Hello, August.

The summer holidays are in full swing, Dorset is getting busier by the day, and our team are preparing for one of the busiest months of the year.

More visitors means more traffic, more journeys and, inevitably, more breakdowns.

Our controllers, drivers and recovery operators will be working around the clock throughout the summer to keep people moving safely across Dorset and Hampshire.

Enjoy the sunshine, drive carefully and hopefully the only vehicle taking you home from the beach will be your own.

For most people, a sunny Friday marks the start of the weekend, but for our team, it usually marks the start of things getting a lot busier.

While Bournemouth fills up with visitors, our controllers, drivers and recovery operators will be working around the clock to keep people moving.

Breakdowns, accidents, vehicle movements and the occasional “I was only going to leave it there for five minutes”… They deal with it all.

A big thank you to everyone at GRS for the long days, late finishes and continued hard work during one of our busiest times of the year.

School's out for the summer - and Bournemouth is officially in summer mode. ☀️

The beaches are busier. The roads are busier. And that tiny gap beside someone’s driveway is still not a parking space.

Whether you live here or you’re visiting for the day, please look after our town
