Whether you’ve broken down on a Polish motorway, had an accident during a European road trip or have a non-running vehicle that needs bringing back to Britain, Express Breakdown Recovery can help arrange car recovery from Poland to the UK. We provide European vehicle recovery, vehicle repatriation and long-distance vehicle transport for cars returning to England or another UK destination.
A breakdown in Poland is inconvenient enough. Finding out your car now needs to travel hundreds of miles back to the UK can make things considerably more complicated. Express Breakdown Recovery can help arrange Poland to UK vehicle recovery for cars that have broken down, suffered accident damage or simply cannot complete the journey home.
From Warsaw, Kraków and Wrocław to Gdańsk, Poznań, Katowice and the Polish coast, we can discuss collection from a suitable roadside location, garage, hotel, private address or recovery facility and arrange onward transport to your chosen UK destination.

Poland has a rapidly expanding high-speed road network, with more than 1,900 km of motorways and over 3,600 km of expressways reported in 2026. The A1, A2 and A4 form particularly important east-west and north-south corridors, connecting major Polish cities and international routes. (Gov.pl)
The A1 is especially significant for north-south travel, connecting the Tri-City area with central and southern Poland and linking with the A2 and A4. (Gov.pl)
We can discuss vehicle repatriation and international vehicle transport for a wide range of vehicles, including:
If the vehicle won’t start, steer or roll normally, let us know when you contact us. Loading requirements can be very different for a damaged or non-running vehicle compared with one that can be driven onto transport.
International vehicle recovery can involve additional practical and documentation considerations. Before arranging your transport, we’ll need key information such as:
If the vehicle is being permanently imported into Great Britain, additional customs, HMRC and DVLA requirements may apply depending on the circumstances. The relevant UK import and registration requirements should be checked before the vehicle begins its journey.
Tell us where your vehicle is, what has happened and where you need it delivered in the UK. We’ll discuss the most practical recovery and transport arrangements for your situation.
