Vehicle Recovery Insurance in Ireland
Specialist Cover for Professional Recovery Operators
If you operate a vehicle recovery or roadside assistance business in Ireland, having the right insurance in place is essential. At Dolmen Insurance, we provide specialist vehicle recovery insurance designed specifically for motor trade professionals — protecting your recovery vehicles, equipment, premises, staff, and the customer vehicles you’re trusted to move.
Vehicle recovery insurance is a form of motor trade insurance, designed for operators who recover, transport, and store customer vehicles. Whether you run a full-time recovery service, operate a single truck, or provide mobile roadside assistance alongside other motor trade activities, our tailored motor trade policies give you the confidence to operate legally, safely, and profitably.
Insurance for All Types of Vehicle Recovery Businesses
Our vehicle recovery insurance solutions are suitable for a wide range of Irish motor trade professionals, including:

No two recovery businesses are the same. That’s why we take the time to understand how you operate — then build a policy that reflects your actual risks, not a generic template.
