Auction Buyers — Castle Vale, Birmingham City Council area
The difference between a good and bad recovery for a Castle Vale business is rarely the tow itself — it is authorisation, storage and where the vehicle ends up in West Midlands. We agree all three before the first callout. Most of Castle Vale is retail sheds, which decides more about a recovery than the fault does. For reference, Castle Vale covers B35 and falls under Birmingham City Council in West Midlands. Two-vehicle jobs out of the Chester Road corridor are loaded in one visit where weight allows. The result is an honest ETA rather than a comfortable one.

Buying a car at auction often means the vehicle is sat somewhere you're not, sometimes without a valid MOT or in a condition that means driving it home isn't sensible or legal. We collect vehicles from auction houses across the region and deliver them wherever you need, without you having to arrange your own transport on the day.

How the service works for you
Collecting non-runners and unregistered vehicles
Auction vehicles aren't always roadworthy, and that's fine – we transport non-runners and vehicles without current MOTs just as readily as those that drive perfectly well.
Timing around auction schedules
Auction houses often want vehicles cleared within a set window. We aim to work around those timescales so you don't run into storage fees or missed collection deadlines.
Delivery to you, wherever that is
Once collected, we can deliver locally within Birmingham and the Black Country, or arrange onward transport UK-wide if you're based further away.
