Auction Buyers along the A441 Pershore Road corridor in Cotteridge
Cotteridge businesses inside B30 get a named contact, agreed rates and 24-hour cover. Private buyers, traders and dealers who need a vehicle collected from or delivered to an auction house. Everything runs off our own trucks on the Birmingham City Council rota. Locals give directions by Cotteridge Park; we plan by A441 Pershore Road and the postcode B30. We confirm the drop address before leaving Cotteridge so nothing is decided kerbside. Common collection points: Pershore Road trade units, the parking by Cotteridge Park, and 1930s semis. That approach is why Cotteridge repeat callers ask for the same driver.

We also help traders and dealers who buy regularly, offering a consistent collection service rather than a one-off booking each time, so auction purchases become one less thing to plan around.
How the service works for you
Peace of mind on paperwork
Let us know what documentation needs collecting alongside the vehicle, such as keys, service books or purchase paperwork, and we'll make sure it travels with the car.
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.
Where your vehicles actually break down here
In practice the callouts cluster: the approach roads to Pershore Road trade units, the parking around Cotteridge Park, and the residential grid of 1930s semis where drivers leave vehicles overnight. Roughly 5 miles of city sits between Cotteridge and the centre, which is why we approach from M5 J4 rather than through it. Fuel type matters before we tow: EVs and hybrids from B30 go on the deck, not on a rope. 8 miles, one truck, one price — that is the whole model here. Overnight, most work here is on high street shop units rather than main roads.

Access and routing around Cotteridge
If you can see the A441 Pershore Road from where you are standing, the driver already knows the approach. We would rather turn a job down than turn up with the wrong truck. If you are unsure of the postcode, B30 plus a landmark such as the A441 Pershore Road is enough. Loading on A441 Pershore Road needs a safe run-off; near Cotteridge Park that usually means the side road.

Questions from operators in Cotteridge
What if the auction house has a tight collection deadline in Cotteridge?
Let us know the deadline when booking and we'll aim to collect within it to avoid storage charges.
What if the vehicle is blocking A441 Pershore Road?
Say so immediately — that changes the priority. A vehicle on a live carriageway near Cotteridge Park is treated as urgent, and we will talk you through where to stand while you wait.
Do you deliver outside the Birmingham area in Cotteridge?
Yes, we cover local delivery within around 30 miles of Oldbury and can arrange UK-wide transport for greater distances.
Can you collect a vehicle with no MOT from the auction in Cotteridge?
Yes, we regularly transport vehicles without a current MOT, since they're carried rather than driven.
Are you insured to move my vehicle across West Midlands?
Yes. Goods-in-transit and recovery operator liability are in force for every movement, whether it is two streets in B30 or a longer run out of West Midlands.
Do I need to be with the vehicle in Cotteridge?
Not always. For collections from 1930s semis or a unit near Pershore Road trade units we can work with a key safe or a nominated contact, provided we have written authority and someone to receive the vehicle at the other end.

The practical bit
We cover Cotteridge every day, not occasionally. That is why this page talks about Cotteridge Park and Pershore Road trade units rather than listing every town in West Midlands. The B30 streets around Cotteridge Park were not laid out with a 7.5-tonne transporter in mind. The two roads that matter locally are A441 Pershore Road and A441 Pershore Road, with M5 J4 for anything longer. One rota covers Cotteridge, Kings Norton, Northfield, Stirchley and the rest of the Birmingham City Council area. At school-run and shift-change times the A441 Pershore Road corridor backs up, which changes the ETA more than mileage does.
