Dealerships · Olton B27
Recovery support for dealerships across Olton and Birmingham
Olton businesses inside B27/B92 get a named contact, agreed rates and 24-hour cover. Franchise and independent car dealers needing stock moved between sites, auctions and customers. Everything runs off our own trucks on the Solihull MBC rota. Ask three people in Olton where Olton Reservoir is and you get three routes; the driver only needs one that fits a truck. On tight interwar semis we bring skates rather than argue with a turning circle. Overnight, most work here is on interwar semis rather than main roads. Either way you get a flat figure before the truck leaves.

Because these are vehicles you plan to sell, condition matters. We treat every dealership vehicle with the same care whether it's a five-year-old hatchback or something further up the range, and we're happy to work around your opening hours and preferred collection windows.
How the service works for you
Paperwork and keys
We know dealership vehicles come with their own admin – keys, V5s, service history. Let us know what needs to travel with the vehicle and we'll make sure it's handled properly.
Stock transfers between sites
If you run more than one site, or work with a partner dealership, we can move vehicles between locations so stock ends up where it's needed without a salesperson having to drive it themselves.
Part-exchange and trade collections
Part-exchange vehicles heading to trade or auction can be collected on a schedule that suits you, rather than sitting on your forecourt taking up space.
Where your vehicles actually break down here
In practice the callouts cluster: the approach roads to Lode Lane periphery, the parking around Olton railway station, and the residential grid of interwar semis where drivers leave vehicles overnight. Locals give directions by Olton railway station; we plan by A41 Warwick Road and the postcode B27. We would rather turn a job down than turn up with the wrong truck. Common collection points: Lode Lane periphery, the parking by Olton railway station, and interwar semis. Access off A4040 outer ring narrows quickly, so a full-length transporter sometimes has to set down and winch.

Access and routing around Olton
Every Olton job starts with two questions: where exactly, and can the vehicle roll? Where the vehicle sits on private land rather than a live road, the legal position and the price both change. Second road option if A41 Warwick Road is blocked: A4040 outer ring. It keeps the job to one visit, which is the whole point.

Yes, we can deliver sold vehicles to a customer's home or workplace across the UK.

Often, but height is the deciding factor. Tell us the level and the clearance on the way in. Where the deck is too low for a truck we use skates to bring the vehicle out to the entrance.

What happens next if you are in Olton
Most Olton jobs end at a garage in B27/B92 or over in Birmingham. Dealerships is quoted door to door, including the return leg to West Midlands storage if that is what you need. Solihull MBC keeps B27/B92 busy with works and diversions, so the route in gets checked before dispatch. The two roads that matter locally are A41 Warwick Road and A4040 outer ring, with M42 J5 for anything longer. A spec-lift handles most of it; the tilt-and-slide comes out for lowered, damaged or non-rolling vehicles. Which matters more in Olton than raw response times ever will.
