How we can help in Slough
Vehicle recovery in Slough
Three M4 junctions serve the town. Junction 5 at Langley meets the A4 for Colnbrook and the B470 for Datchet and Eton, Junction 6 takes the A355 north into central Slough and the A332 south to Windsor, and Junction 7 serves the western side. All of it sits inside the M4's all-lane-running scheme from Junction 3 to 12, so there's no hard shoulder. Aim for an emergency area or the next exit if the car is failing, and if you're stuck in a live lane, stay belted in and call 999.
The A355 carries on north from Junction 6 as a dual carriageway and crosses the A4 at a signal-controlled junction. Along the Bath Road, Slough Trading Estate covers about two square kilometres, with some 400 businesses and around 20,000 people working there. Vans and cars break down on its internal roads every working day, so tell us the unit number or business name as well as the road.
In the centre, the Queensmere car park shut for good in 2025, but the Observatory car park is still open, with more than 800 spaces and its entrance on Wellington Street. Wexham Park Hospital is about two miles north, and public parking is through Gate 2 off Wexham Street; some of its car parks are being redeveloped, so tell us which one you're in.
The London ULEZ stops at the Greater London boundary, so Slough is outside it. Heathrow and the nearby London Borough of Hillingdon are inside, and heading east from Colnbrook the zone starts at the Colnbrook By-Pass junction with Stanwell Moor Road. If an older car is going to a garage on the London side, check it first or ask us to use one this side of the boundary. We can take it to Langley, Burnham or anywhere else you choose.

Slough recovery & roadside FAQs
My van has died on Slough Trading Estate. What do you need from me?
The road, the unit number or company name, and whether the van is on the road or inside a yard. If it's loaded, tell us roughly how heavy, because that affects which truck we send. Call or WhatsApp 07944 820302 with those details.
I've broken down at Junction 6 of the M4. Is there a hard shoulder?
No. This part of the M4 is all-lane running. If you can, get onto the slip road or into an emergency area. If the car has stopped in a running lane, stay inside with your belt on and call 999 first, then us once you're safe.
My car is in the Observatory car park. Can you still reach it?
A jump start or battery replacement can usually be done where the car is parked. A flatbed generally won't fit under a multi-storey roof, so if the car needs to come away we'll talk through getting it down to ground level. Tell us the level and bay.
Is Slough inside the ULEZ?
No. The zone follows the Greater London boundary. Heathrow and Hillingdon are inside it, so if a car that doesn't meet the standard is going to a garage over that line, it's worth checking before it's driven back.
Can you take my car from Slough to a garage in Maidenhead or Windsor?
Yes. Give us the address and the quote includes the whole trip.
Is the price fixed once you quote it?
Yes, provided the details are as you told us. We base it on the location, the vehicle, whether it rolls and the destination, and there's nothing to join.
