Car Transportation in Selly Oak — 24/7 Callout
In Selly Oak we mostly help private buyers, dealers, restoration owners, working around student housing and Victorian terraces.
Selly Oak is a residential area with a distinct mix of student housing and Victorian terraces, and the car transportation jobs we see there reflect that. In an average week we're called to eBay and Facebook Marketplace purchases needing collection and project cars moving between workshops within a couple of miles of the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Our base in Oldbury sits roughly 6 miles away, which is why our first ETA for Selly Oak usually starts with a "two" or a "three".

How we handle car transportation here
Car Transportation in Selly Oak usually means one of a few things. The equipment on the truck matters: we bring clean flatbeds and soft straps for prestige alloys, and we plan access around student housing which are common here. Worth knowing: classics with weak sills need bespoke strap points.
