High Value along the A459 corridor in Old Hill
We run high value for operators across the Sandwell MBC area, and Old Hill is one of the patches we cover most often. Between the former chain and anchor works and Highfields industrial estate there is enough commercial movement that we keep a truck within reach of B64/B65 on every shift. Vehicles collected near Old Hill railway station are usually loaded from the offside because of the camber. Nothing gets sub-contracted out of the Sandwell MBC area. Postcode-level cover: B64/B65, plus the ring of areas within a few miles. We confirm the drop address before leaving Old Hill so nothing is decided kerbside.

We're used to loading vehicles that need particular care, whether that's due to their ride height, their value, or simply their age, and we'll always talk through the best method with you before we start.
How the service works for you
Local moves and longer journeys
Whether the car's going to a specialist a few miles away or needs transporting further afield to a show, sale or new owner, we can arrange the journey with the same level of care throughout.
Low ground clearance and modified cars
Lowered and modified cars can be damaged by the wrong loading angle or ramp. We use appropriate equipment and take our time to load these vehicles without unnecessary risk.
Classics and older vehicles
Older vehicles sometimes have quirks – tired brakes, non-standard parts, or simply age-related fragility. We treat every classic with a level of care that reflects what it means to the owner, not just its market value.
Why a Old Hill 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 Old Hill every day, so the routing, the storage point and the authorised-caller list can all be set up once and reused. On Victorian terraces the practical limit is turning space, not weight. 5 miles, one truck, one price — that is the whole model here. Netherton is the nearest larger centre, which is where a lot of Old Hill drops end up. Loading on A459 needs a safe run-off; near the former chain and anchor works that usually means the side road.
- Standing route plan in via M5 J2 then A459
- Named default garage or depot in the B64 area
- Agreed authorisation rules so drivers are not left waiting
- Consolidated monthly invoicing across West Midlands jobs
Access and routing around Old Hill
Trade callers here tend to be based at New Rowley Road trading estate; private callers are usually on Victorian terraces. Fuel type matters before we tow: EVs and hybrids from B64/B65 go on the deck, not on a rope. Common collection points: Highfields industrial estate, the parking by the former chain and anchor works, and Victorian terraces. The truck that quotes is the truck that turns up.

Other trade services in Old Hill
Old Hill and high value — where that leaves you
Most Old Hill jobs end at a garage in B64/B65 or over in Netherton. High Value is quoted door to door, including the return leg to West Midlands storage if that is what you need. No relay, no third party, no surprise between Old Hill and the drop-off. Storage, if it is needed, stays inside West Midlands rather than being shipped out of area. A spec-lift handles most of it; the tilt-and-slide comes out for lowered, damaged or non-rolling vehicles. Everything inside B64/B65 is priced the same way, day or night.
