Auction Buyers · Minworth B76
Recovery support for auction buyers across Minworth and Castle Bromwich
Fleet downtime in Minworth is measured in shifts, not miles. With the yard 12 miles away and access in via M6 J5, we build cover around the way your vehicles actually move through B76. Recovery in Birmingham City Council territory means knowing which restrictions bite and when. Fuel type matters before we tow: EVs and hybrids from B76 go on the deck, not on a rope. It keeps the job to one visit, which is the whole point. Overnight, most work here is on large distribution sheds rather than main roads.
- A38
- Minworth industrial estate
- the Birmingham & Fazeley Canal
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 Minworth 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 Minworth every day, so the routing, the storage point and the authorised-caller list can all be set up once and reused. Vehicles collected near Minworth sewage treatment works are usually loaded from the offside because of the camber. Gated yards at Forge Lane trading area often have a height barrier; a gate code saves ten minutes. Typical drop points from here: garages in B76, storage in West Midlands, or Castle Bromwich. That approach is why Minworth repeat callers ask for the same driver.

How the service works for you
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.
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.
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.
Access and routing around Minworth
Minworth sits roughly 8 miles out from the city centre, so we rarely route through town to reach you. It keeps West Midlands work predictable for trade and private customers alike. Typical drop points from here: garages in B76, storage in West Midlands, or Castle Bromwich. Insurance work from Minworth gets a written condition record before the straps go on.
Questions from operators in Minworth
What if the auction house has a tight collection deadline in Minworth?
Let us know the deadline when booking and we'll aim to collect within it to avoid storage charges.
Can you take the vehicle to a garage outside Minworth?
Yes. Most drops go to a garage in Minworth itself or in Castle Bromwich, but we will run further if that is where your repairer is. Give us the destination on the call so it is inside the quoted price.
Do you deliver outside the Birmingham area in Minworth?
Yes, we cover local delivery within around 30 miles of Oldbury and can arrange UK-wide transport for greater distances.
Do I need to be with the vehicle in Minworth?
Not always. For collections from large distribution sheds or a unit near Minworth industrial estate 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.
Can you collect a vehicle with no MOT from the auction in Minworth?
Yes, we regularly transport vehicles without a current MOT, since they're carried rather than driven.
Is Minworth closer to your base or to Birmingham city centre?
About 12 miles from our Oldbury yard and about 8 miles from the city centre, so we come to you directly rather than routing through town.
