Non-runner · Coleshill B46
Sorted in Coleshill: non-runner handled 24/7
If you are dealing with non-runner anywhere in Coleshill, we are roughly 15 miles away in Oldbury and come in via M6 J4. That matters because it decides whether this is a short local job or a relay — for Coleshill it is almost always the former. Coleshill is close enough to base that we quote it as a local run, not a distance job. Neighbouring cover runs to Solihull, Water Orton, Curdworth, all on the same rota. We photograph condition on collection so there is no argument later about a kerbed wheel. Everything inside B46 is priced the same way, day or night.

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
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.
Vehicles that don't roll freely
A seized engine, seized brakes, or flat and perished tyres can mean a car won't roll even when pushed, which needs different loading equipment such as dollies or a winch rather than simply driving it up a ramp. Let us know if you suspect the car won't move freely so we bring the right kit.
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

Getting a truck to you in Coleshill
Same rota, same drivers, same 15-mile run every time. Storage, if it is needed, stays inside Warwickshire rather than being shipped out of area. You deal with the same operation from the first call to the drop-off. Winching across a verge or a kerb near M6 Junction 4 needs space we would rather plan for than discover.

Recap for B46
Between Solihull and Water Orton there is usually a truck within a short run. Non-runner from here is a single-vehicle job with no hand-off. A market town area like Coleshill throws up two kinds of recovery: kerbside and yard. If M6 J4 is queueing, the driver reroutes rather than sitting in it. Overnight, most work here is on period townhouses rather than main roads. It keeps the job to one visit, which is the whole point.

Coleshill questions
Should I mention if the car has low ground clearance or fragile bodywork in Coleshill?
Yes, please let us know anything unusual about the vehicle in advance so we can plan the loading approach carefully.
Can you collect from a private seller's driveway or a field in Coleshill?
Yes, we regularly collect project cars and non-runners from all sorts of locations, including fields, garages and private sales.
Can you take the vehicle to a garage outside Coleshill?
Yes. Most drops go to a garage in Coleshill itself or in Solihull, 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.
Is Coleshill closer to your base or to Birmingham city centre?
About 15 miles from our Oldbury yard and about 10 miles from the city centre, so we come to you directly rather than routing through town.
Does the car need to start or roll for you to move it in Coleshill?
No, we can load vehicles that are completely seized or won't roll, using dollies or a winch rather than needing the car to move under its own power.
What does non-runner cost in Coleshill?
We quote a flat figure on the phone based on the actual distance, the vehicle and the access. At roughly 15 miles from base, Coleshill is a local job — no per-mile meter, no call-out fee bolted on afterwards.
