Roadside assistance is an emergency support service that helps you when your vehicle breaks down or encounters a problem on the road. At Gul Auto Recovery, our 24/7 roadside assistance team covers all areas of Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, and other UAE Emirates. Our services include vehicle towing, battery jump-start, flat tyre change, car lockout assistance, and emergency fuel delivery. Whether you're stranded on Sheikh Zayed Road, a desert highway, or a residential street, our trained technicians arrive within 15–30 minutes. We handle all vehicle types — sedans, SUVs, luxury cars, motorcycles, and light commercial vehicles — ensuring you get back on the road safely and quickly.
Once you call us, our nearest available recovery truck is dispatched immediately. Our average response time is 15–30 minutes within Abu Dhabi and Dubai, and 30–45 minutes for Sharjah, Al Ain, and other Emirates. Upon arrival, our technician will assess the situation, secure your vehicle safely on the tow truck using professional straps and wheel locks, and transport it to your preferred workshop, dealership, or any destination you choose in the UAE. We never rush the securing process — your vehicle's safety during transport is our top priority. All our towing is covered by insurance for complete peace of mind.
When choosing a towing company in the UAE, check for these key factors: (1) 24/7 availability — breakdowns don't follow office hours. (2) Proper licensing and insurance — ensure the company is a licensed recovery service provider in the UAE. (3) Coverage area — they should cover all seven Emirates, not just one city. (4) Equipment quality — flatbed trucks and wheel-lift trucks for all vehicle types including luxury and AWD cars. (5) Transparent pricing — no hidden charges. (6) Verified reviews — check Google Maps and social media. Gul Auto Recovery meets all these standards, operating 24/7 across the full UAE with certified technicians and competitive, transparent rates.
Gul Auto Recovery provides a full range of vehicle recovery and roadside assistance services across the UAE, including: Emergency towing and car recovery, flatbed towing for luxury and sports cars, accident recovery and vehicle extraction, battery jump-start service, flat tyre replacement, car lockout and key assistance, fuel delivery for empty tanks, motorcycle and bike recovery, heavy vehicle and truck towing, and long-distance vehicle transport between Emirates.

Yes, we provide professional battery jump-start services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week across all UAE Emirates. A dead battery is one of the most common roadside emergencies, especially in the UAE's extreme heat, which accelerates battery deterioration. Our technicians carry heavy-duty portable jump-start packs that work safely on all modern vehicles including those with smart electronics and stop-start systems. We do not use old-fashioned cable-to-cable methods that risk damaging sensitive ECUs. If your battery is beyond revival, we can also source and fit a replacement battery on the spot for most vehicle makes and models.
Speed is one of our key strengths. Our average response times are: 15–30 minutes within Abu Dhabi city and Dubai, 30–45 minutes for Sharjah, Ajman, and Al Ain, and approximately 60 minutes for remote highways and Ras Al Khaimah areas. We maintain a fleet of recovery trucks strategically positioned across the UAE so there's always a unit near you. When you call, our dispatcher tracks your GPS location and assigns the closest available truck instantly. We understand that every minute on the roadside feels like an hour — getting to you fast is our commitment.
Here are the most important things to check before trusting a recovery company with your vehicle in the UAE: Licensed and registered recovery service provider, full insurance coverage for your vehicle during towing, 24/7 emergency availability including weekends and public holidays, experienced and certified technicians, modern flatbed and wheel-lift equipment suitable for all vehicle types, clear upfront pricing without surprise fees, positive verified Google reviews and testimonials, wide coverage across all Emirates and major UAE highways, and specialized equipment for luxury, AWD, and sports vehicles. Gul Auto Recovery checks every box on this list and has been serving UAE motorists since 2012.
A flatbed tow truck is the safest option and is required in the following situations: Luxury or exotic cars (Ferrari, Lamborghini, Rolls Royce, etc.) where ground clearance is very low, all-wheel drive (AWD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) vehicles where towing on two wheels can damage the drivetrain, vehicles with severely damaged wheels, axles, or suspension, motorcycles and bikes that cannot be towed upright, accident-damaged cars where the vehicle cannot roll, and new or leased vehicles where the manufacturer or finance company requires flatbed towing. Gul Auto Recovery has a fleet of modern flatbed trucks ready to transport your vehicle safely without any risk of additional damage.
No — professional towing by a trained technician using the correct equipment is completely safe for your vehicle. The key word is 'professional'. Damage occurs when the wrong towing method is used — for example, towing an AWD vehicle on two wheels, or using worn-out straps on a luxury car. At Gul Auto Recovery, our technicians are trained to select the correct towing method for every vehicle type. We use padded wheel straps, soft ties, and manufacturer-approved points to secure your car. All our operations are covered by insurance, so in the very rare event of any issue, you are fully protected.
Our towing rates start from AED 150 for local towing within the same area and vary based on distance, vehicle type, time of day, and Emirates. We offer competitive and transparent pricing with no hidden charges — the price we quote is the price you pay. We service all vehicle types: sedans, hatchbacks, SUVs, pickup trucks, luxury vehicles, sports cars, motorcycles, and light commercial vehicles. For an accurate quote based on your exact location and vehicle, call us directly at +971 50 367 0742. We also offer special rates for fleet accounts and corporate clients.
