If your car or van stops on the Broadway, the A40 slip roads or a retail park car park in Greenford, phone us and we will talk through getting it to our Hayes workshop.
A breakdown rarely happens at a convenient moment. In Greenford it might be a van that dies outside the shops on the Broadway, or a family car that will not start on a driveway after a cold night. Either way, the first job is to get safe and work out what has actually gone wrong.
MTS Garage Services is a family-run independent garage at Chesterfield Way in Hayes, and we work on cars and vans of all makes and models. We cover Greenford and the neighbouring areas, including Northolt, Southall, Hanwell and South Ruislip. Our recovery work is about moving a vehicle that cannot move itself, then finding out why.
Start by getting everyone safe. Switch on your hazard lights, move the vehicle off the carriageway if it will still roll, and keep passengers away from live traffic, especially near the A40. Then note what happened: warning lights, a smell, a noise, or silence when you turned the key. That detail helps us. Phone us during opening hours and tell us the make, model, where the vehicle is and whether it is blocking anything. We will explain whether we can help, what we need to know and how the move to the workshop would work. We do not offer out-of-hours recovery, so please call us when the garage is open to confirm availability and arrangements, and we will not promise an arrival time we cannot keep.
Plenty of vehicles we collect are not simply flat on battery. Some have a seized engine, a snapped belt, a failed gearbox or a fuel problem. Others have been in a collision and are no longer safe to drive, with steering, suspension or cooling damage that is not obvious from the outside. Non-Runner Recovery Hayes is how we describe moving these safely to our workshop on Chesterfield Way. Once the vehicle is with us, we diagnose the fault properly rather than guessing, explain what we found in plain language, and give you a clear estimate before any repair begins. If damage looks too extensive to be worth repairing, we will say so honestly.
Not every recovery follows a breakdown. You might have bought a project car that does not run, need a van shifted from a yard to the workshop, or have a vehicle that is simply unsafe to drive to us. Local Vehicle Transportation Hayes covers that kind of job. If a vehicle needs moving, we can talk it through with you: where it is, what condition it is in, whether it rolls and steers, and where it needs to end up. Because arrangements depend on the vehicle and on what the garage has on that day, always phone first to confirm availability before assuming anything is booked.
Greenford is a largely residential part of its borough, with the Broadway parade and a retail park along the main road, and the A40 running beside it. That means a mix of drivers: people using the shops, commuters on the dual carriageway and households with cars parked on the street. If your vehicle has stopped, we can arrange for it to be brought to us at Chesterfield Way in Hayes. We also look after drivers from Northolt, Southall, Hanwell and South Ruislip, so if you are somewhere close by, the same simple process applies. Call us in opening hours and we will work out the practical details together.
We also help drivers with breakdown and vehicle recovery from nearby Northolt, Southall, Hanwell, South Ruislip, and the garage in Hayes is the base for all of it.

Call us during opening hours with the van's location, make and model and what happened. We will tell you whether we can help and how it would be arranged. Please stay safe and away from live traffic until help is arranged, and note that we cannot promise an arrival time.
No. Just describe what you noticed, such as a noise, a warning light or the engine failing to turn over. We find the actual fault once the vehicle is at the workshop, then explain it and give you an estimate before any repair work starts.
No, we do not provide out-of-hours or overnight recovery. Phone us when the garage is open and we will confirm what is possible and how to arrange it. If you are stuck at night, make the vehicle safe and contact us next time we are open.
