Car transport – You need the professionals!

There are many reasons why you need an experienced car transporter company.  You might have bought or sold a car on eBay, you might be a specialist garage arranging car transport for a client, perhaps you’re arranging car transportation for a track day, or you’ve simply bought a car at auction. Whatever your reasons, the type of car and your budget will dictate how you’ll want to transport it.

If for example your car is destined for scrap then you’ll want the cheapest car transporter method available. On the other hand fleet car managers needing to arrange transport for several vehicles such as car dealerships and garages, will need a multi car transporter service. Specialist kit car builders and classic car owners might want a covered car transportation solution in order to protect their pride and joy from prying eyes, as well as the dust and dirt on the road.

Similarly, prestige cars, luxury sports cars, racing cars and even car prototypes will need the car shipment to be as discrete as possible, in a curtained-sided covered vehicle. And for anyone organising classic car transport, it’s absolutely essential that the car arrives at its destination as pristine as it was when it left.

Of course, you don’t have to be in the car industry to need a vehicle delivery service. The most common enquiries we receive are from individuals who’ve bought a car on the internet, or are in the Armed Forces and want a car moving abroad. Whatever the reason for shifting that car, we can help you coordinate the transportation.

Car shipping

If you’re moving cars into or out of the UK then you need a specialist car shipping transporter who will be able to advise you on both the procedures and the shipping documentation. Essentially there are two main options, the first of which is a dedicated car shipping service in which you car is shipped in a 20 or 40ft shipping container. This is the most secure way of shipping your car however it’s not necessarily the cheapest. The other option is a roll-on / roll-off car shipment where by your vehicle is driven onto the vessel and secured on or beneath the deck. This is a cheaper form of car transportation and is favour by large vehicle manufacturers.

Getting your car transportation quote

Whatever service you require getting quotes is simple. Enter your car transportation details and we’ll sort the quotes. Professional transporters will see your car delivery details and will submit bids accordingly. Car transport quotes will be based on the distance between the collection and delivery sites, the number of cars needing to be transported and the urgency of the job. For a budget car delivery service flexibility is the key; for those in a hurry car transportation can normally be arranged within three days.

To get the best quotes, you need a car transporter to be returning empty in your area. The key to this is getting people who need cars moving together with companies who have car trailers and transporters driving unloaded on an outward or return journey. That’s why our website really works. By posting your car delivery details, companies with services already scheduled to go your way will be able to fill spare capacity with what they call a ‘back load’. So as they were going there anyway, the price you’ll be quoted will be very competitive.

What to expect from your car delivery service

If you plump for a driven car delivery service, you can expect the driver to do a pre-journey collection and delivery check to make sure the car has arrived in the same state as when it left. It’s also important that you check to ensure that the car delivery company has sufficient insurance cover for your vehicle. If not most companies will be happy to increase it for a small additional fee.

Weight is also important when it comes to car delivery services. A car transporter must respect the gross vehicle weight (GVW), which is the weight of the towing vehicle, plus its trailer, plus the car or cars loaded onto it. If this exceeds the maximum then the car transporter is operating outside of VOSA rules. If the GVW is more than 3.5 tonnes, the car transport firm will also need an operator’s licence.

For that extra peace of mind, look out for a car delivery service provider who is also a member of the Car Transport Association, which represents individuals and companies that provide car transportation services across the UK and Europe.
