Car recovery in Stanion from your nearest Corby team
Stanion is a small village, but it sits on a busy road. The A6116 runs past it from Corby towards Brigstock and Thrapston, and on to the A14. That means our car recovery work in Stanion is split between residents whose cars won't start at home and through traffic that has broken down on the main road.
Rapid Recovery is a Corby firm, so Stanion is a short run for our trucks. We have been in vehicle recovery for over five years, we answer the phone at any hour and we price the job before we set off.

Two kinds of call-out in Stanion
In the village
Village jobs tend to be calm but awkward. A car that has sat on a driveway for weeks, a second car with a dead battery, a car that has failed its MOT and needs taking to a garage. Parking can be tight on older streets, so we choose the right vehicle for the job. Our van with dollies and skates can move a car with seized wheels out of a narrow gap before it is loaded.
On the A6116
The main road is a different story. It carries commuters, vans and lorries, and when a car stops there the priority is getting everyone safe. Breakdowns here are often overheating, clutch or gearbox faults, punctures and electrical problems. We also attend accidents and can work with your insurer.
Staying safe on the A6116 near Stanion
- Pull as far left as you can, onto the verge or into a lay-by if one is close.
- Turn on your hazard lights, and your sidelights after dark.
- Get everyone out on the side away from the traffic, and stand behind a barrier if there is one.
- Wear a high-vis if you have one in the car.
- If you are stuck in a live lane and cannot get out safely, call 999.
When you are safe, call us on 07598 314366. Our what to do if you break down guide explains each step. If your journey takes you on towards the A14, our A14 breakdown advice is worth reading too.

Our trucks and standards
We run five-plus recovery vehicles: spec lift tow trucks, beavertail tilt-and-slide transporters and a van with dollies and skates. Some trucks carry one car and tow a second on a dolly. We are PAS 43 accredited for safe roadside and recovery work and ISO 9001 certified for quality management. We are insured for goods in transit, public liability and road risks.
If your car cannot be delivered straight away, perhaps because the garage is closed overnight, it can go into our secure storage yard until it can.
What it costs
Local breakdown recovery has a £60 minimum charge. Jump starts have a £40 minimum charge. Anything else, including longer recoveries and car transport, is priced on the phone before we leave, so you are never guessing. Pay by card on the day, bank transfer or cash. Business invoicing is available by arrangement. Our costs page has more detail.

We also cover Corby, Brigstock, Great Oakley and Weldon, along with the rest of the villages around the town.
