Our vehicle broke down while out and about. They recovered the car back to the campsite. They then collected the car and twin axle caravan 2 days later, dropped caravan at storage, car and us home. Next day they collected car to take to garage. No issues.
Our Mayday cover costs us £130 per annum and that covers two cars. They will also come to our home to recover a vehicle i.e. jump start. In the event we are away and I am unable to drive due to illness, they will chauffeur the outfit to storage and home.

I think with Mayday that it depends on the company they get to recover you as they don't seem to have their own vehicles but subcontract.
Start Rescue don't have their own vehicles either, they use subcontractors. I'm not sure that any of the breakdown companies do except the AA and RAC.

That is correct and all the breakdown companies could be using the same sub-contractors.

Green Flag have their own vehicles, but like the rest of them they often sub-con to local companies closer to you.

XVI yes?
As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

Even the AA and RAC use sub-contractors at times.

That wouldn't surprise me at all. There are only so many people in each area with the equipment to do it.
