Auction Buyers in Erdington (B23/B24) — accounts and out-of-hours
Erdington businesses inside B23/B24 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. Every Erdington job starts with two questions: where exactly, and can the vehicle roll? It keeps West Midlands work predictable for trade and private customers alike. Birmingham is the nearest larger centre, which is where a lot of Erdington drops end up. Deliveries usually go to a garage in Erdington or across to Birmingham, whichever you nominate.
- Tyburn Road corridor
- the A38(M) Aston Expressway
- B23 postcode area
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.

Why a Erdington account differs from a citywide one
A generic Birmingham arrangement treats every postcode the same. Yours does not work that way: your drivers use the same few roads out of Erdington every day, so the routing, the storage point and the authorised-caller list can all be set up once and reused. If you can see the A38(M) Aston Expressway from where you are standing, the driver already knows the approach. Loading on A38 Tyburn Road needs a safe run-off; near the A38(M) Aston Expressway that usually means the side road. 9 miles, one truck, one price — that is the whole model here. If you are unsure of the postcode, B23 plus a landmark such as the A38(M) Aston Expressway is enough.

Peace of mind on paperwork

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.
Access and routing around Erdington
From M6 J6 the running time barely changes between 3pm and 3am. Access off A5127 narrows quickly, so a full-length transporter sometimes has to set down and winch. Building stock here is mainly 1930s semis, with roadside retail on the edges. The truck that quotes is the truck that turns up.
Questions from operators in Erdington
Do you deliver outside the Birmingham area in Erdington?
Yes, we cover local delivery within around 30 miles of Oldbury and can arrange UK-wide transport for greater distances.
Do you charge extra for weekends in B23?
No weekend surcharge on the standard local rate. The price you are quoted for Erdington on a Tuesday morning is the price on a Sunday night.
How quickly can you reach Erdington?
We are based in Oldbury, about 9 miles away, and come in via M6 J6 then A38 Tyburn Road. Outside peak hours that is a short run; at rush hour add time for the A38 Tyburn Road corridor. The dispatcher gives you a real ETA on the call rather than a standard promise.
Which postcodes around Erdington do you cover?
B23/B24 directly, plus the surrounding Birmingham, Perry Barr, Sutton Coldfield. It all sits inside the Birmingham City Council operating area we work daily, so there is no out-of-area surcharge.

Can you collect regularly if I buy at auction often in Erdington?
