Car and Vehicle Transportation Services
Vehicle transportation is not just for breakdowns. You may need a car moved because you have bought it, it is not roadworthy, it is awaiting repairs or you simply need it delivered to another address. Recovery Near Me accepts enquiries for planned vehicle transportation across the UK.

When Might You Need Vehicle Transportation?
There are many reasons to arrange vehicle transportation rather than drive a car to its destination.
You’ve Bought a Car
You may need a recently purchased car collected from a seller and delivered to your address.
You’re Restoring a Vehicle
Project cars and restoration vehicles may not be roadworthy or able to move under their own power.
Your Car Needs Specialist Repairs
A vehicle may need transporting to a particular workshop or repair specialist.
You’re Moving a Vehicle
Enquire about transporting a vehicle between private addresses where collection and delivery are suitable.
The Vehicle Is Not Roadworthy
A vehicle with mechanical problems, missing components or other defects may require transportation.
You Need a Vehicle Collected
Whether from a garage, seller or another accessible location, contact us to discuss collection options.
What Types of Vehicles Can Be Transported?
The suitability of a transport arrangement depends on the vehicle’s dimensions, weight, condition and available equipment.
Everyday Cars
Enquiries for hatchbacks, saloons, estates and other passenger cars.
SUVs and Larger Cars
Larger vehicles may require additional weight and dimension checks before transport is arranged.
Vans
Van transport enquiries are assessed according to vehicle size, weight and any load being carried.
Motorcycles
Motorbikes require suitable loading and securing equipment. Contact us with your bike details.
Project Cars
Vehicles under restoration may need specialist loading, particularly if wheels or components are missing.
Electric and Hybrid Cars
Electric and hybrid vehicles may have manufacturer-specific transportation requirements. Battery damage must be disclosed.
Important: Not every vehicle can be transported using standard recovery equipment.
Please tell us if the vehicle is unusually heavy, very low to the ground, damaged, modified or unable to roll, steer or brake. This helps assess whether suitable equipment may be available.
Vehicle Transportation vs Breakdown Recovery
Vehicle transportation and breakdown recovery can involve similar equipment, but customers often need them for different reasons.
Planned Transportation
Usually arranged in advance to move a vehicle between two agreed locations.
Breakdown Recovery
Typically needed when a vehicle cannot continue its journey because of a fault.
Collection Flexibility
Planned transportation may offer more flexibility around collection dates, subject to availability.
Vehicle Condition
Both services may involve non-running vehicles. Loading requirements depend on the condition of the vehicle.
Journey Distance
Either service may involve local or long-distance journeys depending on the requirements.
Requesting a Quote
Collection and delivery postcodes, vehicle details and accessibility are important for both services.
Vehicle Collection After a Private Purchase
Bought a car from a private seller and need it moved? Vehicle transportation may be useful if you do not want to drive the vehicle home or it cannot legally or safely be driven.
Confirm the Purchase
Make sure the seller is ready to release the vehicle and has agreed to the collection arrangements.
Provide Collection Details
Share the seller’s collection postcode, contact arrangements and any access restrictions.
Arrange Delivery
Provide the destination postcode and confirm that someone can receive the vehicle at the agreed location.
Before arranging collection: Confirm the vehicle’s ownership and release arrangements with the seller. If the vehicle is not roadworthy, tell us whether it can roll, steer and brake.
