Vehicle transport in East Carlton explained
Vehicle transport is for cars that need to move but shouldn't be driven. It might be a car you have bought, one you have sold, one with no MOT, or something you simply value too much to put miles on. Rapid Recovery Corby provides car transport in East Carlton and to or from anywhere in the UK.
We use open beavertail tilt-and-slide transporters and spec lift trucks, with a van carrying dollies and skates for awkward collections. All transport is open. We do not offer enclosed transport.

Common reasons for booking
- Auction collections. We collect from the auction and bring the car to your door in East Carlton.
- Private sales. Bought a car elsewhere in the country, or selling one from the village to a buyer further away.
- Dealer deliveries. Trade customers use us to deliver stock and move cars between sites.
- Garage and MOT runs. Getting a car to a garage when it isn't road legal or you would rather not drive it.
- Classic and prestige cars. Low, long or valuable cars moved with extra care.
- House moves. Moving to or from East Carlton with more cars than drivers.
- Non-runners. Cars that won't start, steer or roll freely.
How a booking works
- Call or WhatsApp 07598 314366 with the collection address, the delivery address and the vehicle.
- Tell us whether it runs, and anything awkward about the access at either end.
- We give you a fixed price and agree a date and collection time.
- On the day, we load the car, strap it down and set off.
- We unload at the other end and place the car where you want it.
Photos of the car and the driveway help us plan, especially for low or non-running vehicles.
Two cars at once
Some of our trucks can carry one car and tow a second on a dolly. If you are moving two vehicles from the same address, perhaps when a household is moving or a second car has been sold, mention both when you call. It can make the job simpler.
What does car transport from East Carlton cost?
Car transport is quoted per job, and the price is fixed before you book. The main things that decide it are:
| What we look at | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Mileage | The full run from collection to delivery |
| Type of vehicle | Size and weight decide which truck we use |
| Running or not | Non-runners take more time and equipment to load |
| Access at each end | Tight drives and low clearance need planning |
| Date needed | Urgent moves may affect scheduling |
Payment is by card on the day, bank transfer or cash. Regular trade customers can arrange invoicing. Our car transport cost guide explains it in more detail.
Looking after classic and low cars
A beavertail loads at a gentle angle, which keeps low noses and long overhangs clear of the bed. We winch slowly and check clearances as we go, then strap the car down securely before we set off. Tell us about any low splitters, exhausts or fragile trim before the day.
Insurance and standards
We hold goods in transit, public liability and road risks insurance. Our work follows PAS 43 safety practice and our business runs to ISO 9001. We are careful with every car we carry, whatever it is worth.
Getting the car ready to go
- Take out valuables and anything loose in the cabin or boot.
- Leave the keys and the locking wheel nut key with the car.
- Mention flat tyres, a stuck handbrake or any warning lights.
- Give us a phone number for the person meeting us at delivery.
If the car was running last week but now won't start, our car won't start guide may help before collection day.
Collecting near the countryside park
If you are buying or selling a car and want to meet near East Carlton Countryside Park, that is fine. Busy days can make the car park tight, so it is often easier to collect from a driveway or a quieter time of day. We will talk it through with you.
