Non-runner help in Bordesley Green (B9) — 24 hours
Non-runner does not care what postcode you are in, but the fix does. In Bordesley Green (B9/B10) the deciding factors are usually parking on Victorian terraces, the width of the approach off A45 Coventry Road, and whether the vehicle still rolls. Half the vehicles we lift in Bordesley Green are within sight of A45 Coventry Road. Access off A45 Coventry Road narrows quickly, so a full-length transporter sometimes has to set down and winch. It keeps the job to one visit, which is the whole point. Postcode-level cover: B9/B10, plus the ring of areas within a few miles.

- St Andrew's stadium
We move non-runners and project cars across Birmingham, Solihull, Sandwell and the Black Country, loading vehicles that don't start, don't roll freely, or are missing wheels, keys or an interior, using appropriate equipment for whatever condition the car's actually in.

Why it happens
Buying or selling at a distance
If you're buying a project car from a private seller and can't drive it home, or selling one to a buyer who needs it delivered, we can handle the collection and delivery leg so neither party needs to arrange their own trailer or worry about towing something unroadworthy.
Access for older or unusual vehicles
Older project cars, kit cars or partially restored vehicles sometimes have unusual dimensions, low ground clearance, or fragile bodywork. Telling us about anything unusual in advance means we can plan loading carefully rather than risk damage on the day.
Cars with no key or missing parts
Project cars often come without keys, a working ignition, or sometimes even seats and an interior. None of this stops us loading and transporting the vehicle, since it doesn't need to be driven onto the truck — we can winch it aboard regardless.
- Seized or non-rolling vehicles need dollies or winching, not driving
- Missing keys, seats or interior don't prevent safe transport
- Let us know the vehicle's actual condition in advance, not just 'non-runner'
- We can collect from fields, garages, storage units or private sales

That's not a problem for transport — we secure the vehicle for the journey regardless of its cosmetic or interior condition.
Are you insured to move my vehicle across West Midlands?
Yes. Goods-in-transit and recovery operator liability are in force for every movement, whether it is two streets in B9 or a longer run out of West Midlands.

Yes, we regularly collect project cars and non-runners from all sorts of locations, including fields, garages and private sales.
Do you charge extra for weekends in B9?
No weekend surcharge on the standard local rate. The price you are quoted for Bordesley Green on a Tuesday morning is the price on a Sunday night.
Should I mention if the car has low ground clearance or fragile bodywork in Bordesley Green?
Yes, please let us know anything unusual about the vehicle in advance so we can plan the loading approach carefully.
Can you recover from a multi-storey or underground car park in Bordesley Green?
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.
