Car Recovery Dubai 24/7 Towing and Roadside Assistance
Car broken down, involved in an accident, or stuck in sand somewhere in Dubai? Car Tow DxB provides car recovery Dubai drivers can call any time of day or night.
We handle car towing Dubai-wide on flatbed and wheel-lift trucks, and roadside assistance for the smaller problems — a dead battery, a flat tyre, an empty tank, keys locked inside.
We're based in Al Quoz 4, near Grand City Mall, close to Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road. Call or WhatsApp your location, we confirm the price before the truck moves, and we take your car to the garage, workshop, dealership or home you choose.

Car Recovery, Car Towing and Roadside Assistance in Dubai
Need Car Recovery in Dubai? Car Tow DxB provides assistance for breakdowns, towing requirements and common roadside problems. Tell us what has happened, share your location and explain where you need the vehicle taken. We will help you understand the available recovery options.
Flatbed Car Towing in Dubai
The car sits fully off the road, so nothing drags and no wheel turns under load. This is our standard method, and the only sensible one for electric vehicles, low-clearance cars, and anything with damaged wheels or steering. Straps are soft, not chains, so paint and alloys aren't touched during loading.
Car Breakdown Recovery
If the car stops and won't restart, we clear it from traffic and take it to your garage or dealership. On a highway, your direction of travel and the last exit or landmark you passed matters more than the road name alone — Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Khail Road move fast, and a vague location costs time.
Accident Car Recovery in Dubai
We recover damaged vehicles, including ones with bent wheels or no steering response, and take them to your garage or your insurer's approved workshop. You get a receipt for your claim.
Car Battery Jump Start
Battery jump start and replacement. Flat batteries are our most common call in summer, when heat above 45°C shortens battery life. We jump-start with a jump pack matched to the battery's rating.
Flat Tyre Change in Dubai
Spare fitted roadside, or a straight answer if the tyre needs replacing and the car should go to a tyre shop instead. On a fast road with traffic passing close, wait in a safe spot and call us rather than attempting the change yourself.
Emergency Fuel Delivery
Petrol or diesel brought to your exact location in approved containers. If the wrong fuel has gone in, don't start the engine — call us for a tow instead, since running it risks the pump and injectors.
Desert and Sand Recovery
Al Qudra, Lahbab and Al Faya catch out drivers most weekends. We use a rated winch, kinetic straps and traction boards, pulling from the vehicle's actual rated recovery points. A WhatsApp location pin gets us to you faster than a description of a dune track.
Basement and Underground Parking Recovery
Tower basements in Marina, JLT and Business Bay often have ceiling heights a standard truck can't clear. Tell us the level and ceiling height so we bring equipment that fits.
Luxury, Sports and Electric Vehicle Towing
Low bumpers and splitters need a long, shallow ramp. Electric and hybrid vehicles go on a flatbed as standard, since towing on their own wheels can damage the drivetrain.
Motorcycle Recovery in Dubai
Bikes travel upright, chocked and strapped on a cushioned bed — never dragged or hooked.
Car Lockout Assistance

Getting Car Recovery in Dubai Is Simple
Whether your car has broken down, you need a tow or you are dealing with a roadside problem, the process starts with a quick call or WhatsApp message.
Call or WhatsApp Us
Call or WhatsApp us with your location, vehicle and what happened. A shared live location is the fastest way to be found, especially on highways or off-road.
Confirm the Price Before Dispatch
We confirm the price before dispatch. You hear the cost and what it covers first.
We Reach You
The truck reaches you and either fixes the problem on the spot or loads the car correctly for towing.
We Take Your Car Where You Choose
We deliver it where you choose — garage, workshop, dealership or home — with a receipt at the end.
How Fast Can We Reach You?
Response time depends on your exact location, traffic conditions and whether the site requires special access. Being based in Al Quoz 4 means we can often reach Al Quoz, Sheikh Zayed Road and nearby areas quickly, while outer communities and desert locations may take longer.
Typical Arrival Areas
| Area | Typical Arrival* |
|---|---|
| Al Quoz and immediate surroundings | 10–15 Minutes |
| Central Dubai Bur Dubai, Deira, Karama, Satwa, Oud Metha | 10–15 Minutes |
| New Dubai Business Bay, Downtown, Marina, JLT, Palm Jumeirah | 10–15 Minutes |
| Outer Communities Mirdif, Al Qusais, Silicon Oasis, International City | 10–15 Minutes |
| Jebel Ali, DIP & Dubai South Industrial and southern Dubai areas | 10–15 Minutes |
| Desert Areas Al Qudra, Lahbab | 10–15 Minutes |
If you're on a highway, the exit number or last landmark helps us more than a general area name.
What Affects the Price
There's no single fixed price — it depends on distance, vehicle type, the kind of job, and access.
Distance
Distance between pickup and destination
Vehicle type
Hatchback, SUV, luxury car and van need different handling
Type of service
A jump start costs less than a full tow; a sand recovery costs more than a flatbed pick-up from paved ground
Access
Basements, narrow lanes and dune tracks take more time
Time of day
[confirm whether night/weekend rates differ, or state plainly they don't]
Ask any recovery company, including us: "Is that the total price, or could it change once you arrive?" We confirm the final figure before dispatch.
Vehicles We Recover

Dubai Conditions
We Work With
From extreme summer heat and busy highways to desert sand and underground parking, Dubai's driving conditions can create different vehicle recovery challenges.
Heat.
June to September, temperatures regularly pass 45°C, and that's when battery failures, overheating and tyre blowouts spike. A battery a few years old is worth testing before summer, not after it fails on the hard shoulder.
Highways.
Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Khail Road, Emirates Road and the E311 move fast. A stopped car on the shoulder is at real risk, so precise location details matter more here than elsewhere.
Sand.
Al Qudra, Lahbab and Big Red draw weekend 4x4 traffic, and the same soft patches catch drivers every week. If stuck, stop spinning the wheels — it digs the car in deeper.
Basements.
Tower car parks in Marina, JLT and Business Bay often have height limits a standard truck can't clear. Telling us the ceiling height up front means we bring equipment that fits the first time.
If You Break Down: What to Do While You Wait
Move to a safe spot
Move to a safe spot — hard shoulder or off the road — only if it's safe to do so.
Make your vehicle visible
Turn on hazard lights; place a warning triangle behind the car if you have one and it's safe to reach.
Keep everyone away from traffic
Stand behind a barrier if you're on a highway, and keep passengers clear of traffic.
Call 999 if there's immediate danger
Call 999 immediately if anyone is hurt, or there's fire or smoke.
Call 999Confirm the details
Confirm price and arrival time before the truck sets off.
Document your vehicle
Photograph the car before it's loaded, if safe to do so.
Report the accident
For a minor accident with no injuries: move vehicles clear of traffic, photograph the damage and plates, file the report via the Dubai Police app or call 901.
