Erdington — what we see on the ground
Erdington's residential layout means a auction job here could be anywhere from Fort Dunlop to a residential turning near Spaghetti Junction. Our drivers know which routes take a long-deck truck and which do not — that is the difference between a 40-minute recovery and a two-hour re-route.
Common auction callouts we see in Erdington
- Non-runner lot - dead battery / no fuel / mechanical failure
- Missing V5 - collection paperwork covers movement to your address
- Lot listed as driveable but actually isn't - we plan for winch either way
- Salvage-grade damage requiring careful loading
- Prestige lot needing low-loader not standard flatbed
Loading a auction properly
