All stops on the M1
Every service area, fuel stop, EV charger and rest spot on the M1 between London and Leeds is listed below. Each row shows the detour time the stop adds to your route in real minutes off the motorway and back, not straight-line distance. We hold twelve stops on it, from London Gateway and Toddington in the south through Watford Gap and Leicester Forest East to Woodall, Rotherham and Woolley Edge. Filter by stop type and vehicle.

Rapid EV chargers on the M1: up to 250 kW
Three M1 stops carry rapid charging in our data. Welcome Break Woodall and Rotherham both have Tesla at up to 250 kW, open to any make, and Leicester Forest East has GRIDSERVE. We hold no power rating for the GRIDSERVE site. The Jornee app shows live availability per stop where the operator publishes it.
Charging on the M1 is thinner in our data than the motorway's reputation suggests: three of the twelve stops we track carry a network. Welcome Break Woodall, near Sheffield, and Rotherham at J33 both run Tesla at up to 250 kW and are open to any make. Leicester Forest East runs GRIDSERVE, and we hold no power figure for it. What the other nine sites carry is not something we record, so we do not guess. Prices vary by network and tariff, so check the operator's ad-hoc rate before you pull in.

What each M1 service area has
We hold twelve stops on the M1 and record what each one offers rather than who runs it. Eleven have toilets, eight have HGV parking, eight have showers and six are open 24 hours. Markfield is the one stop we hold no facilities for. Operator names reach our data only where they are part of the site name.
The table lists every M1 stop we hold, what it charges at and what facilities we have recorded. Toilets are near-universal, on eleven of the twelve. HGV parking and showers each cover eight, and six sites are open around the clock. Three names carry their operator because the site is named that way: Welcome Break Woodall, Moto Donington Park and Moto Woolley Edge. For the rest we record no operator, and we record the food outlets at none of them, so you will not find a brand line-up here.

HGV parking and truckstops on the M1
Eight of the twelve M1 stops we hold have HGV parking: London Gateway, Toddington, Northampton, Watford Gap, Moto Donington Park, Tibshelf, Welcome Break Woodall and Moto Woolley Edge. Four of those are also open 24 hours. We record no bay counts, rates, or whether a site is secured.
The M1 is one of Britain's busiest freight corridors, and eight of the twelve stops we hold on it have HGV parking: London Gateway, Toddington, Northampton, Watford Gap, Moto Donington Park, Tibshelf, Welcome Break Woodall and Moto Woolley Edge. For an overnight, the ones that pair HGV parking with 24-hour opening are London Gateway, Northampton, Watford Gap and Tibshelf. Bay counts, overnight rates and whether a site is fenced or patrolled are not in our data, so check with the operator before you commit to a particular stop.
