Car transport in Rothwell, at a fixed price
Car transport in Rothwell works best when it is planned. You tell us where the vehicle is, where it needs to go and what condition it is in, and we give you a fixed price before you book. With the A14 close to town, Rothwell is well placed for runs in every direction.
We provide open transport on beavertail tilt-and-slide transporters, suitable for cars, vans, 4x4s, motorbikes and classics.

What Rothwell customers use us for
Bringing a new car home
Many Rothwell buyers find their next car online, sometimes a long way from Northamptonshire. Rather than travelling to collect it, you can book us to pick it up from the seller and deliver it to your door.
Auction purchases
We collect from auction sites and deliver to Rothwell homes and businesses. Give us the auction, lot details and release arrangements.
Garage and MOT runs
If your car can't be driven, or doesn't have a current MOT and needs taking to a pre-booked test, we can get it there. We also move cars to specialist garages, bodyshops and restorers.
Dealer and trade moves
Garages and dealers in and around Rothwell use us to deliver sold cars and move stock. Some of our trucks can carry one car and tow another on a dolly, which helps when two vehicles are going the same way.
Moving home
Moving to or from Rothwell with a car you can't drive, or more cars than drivers? We can move it on a date that suits your move.
Two cars at once
Families and traders often need two cars moved together, perhaps a car being sold and one being bought, or a pair of cars going to the same garage. Where the route allows, we can carry one and tow the other on a dolly, so you pay for one trip rather than two.
Non-runners and project cars
Rothwell has its share of project cars and long-term non-runners sitting in garages and on driveways. We use a winch to load cars that don't run, and our van with dollies and skates for cars with seized wheels or that are tucked in tight spaces.
Please let us know if the handbrake is stuck on, the steering is locked or the tyres are flat. It helps us bring the right equipment first time.
Classic and prestige cars
We carry classic and prestige cars on open transporters only, not enclosed. Every car is strapped by the wheels, loaded carefully on the low beavertail angle and handled by drivers who are used to valuable vehicles.
How is car transport priced?
Each job has a fixed price agreed before booking. The main factors are:
| Factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Distance and route | The biggest part of the cost |
| Vehicle size and weight | Decides which truck we use |
| Runner or non-runner | Affects loading time and kit |
| Access at each end | Low car parks or narrow streets may need different equipment |
| Number of vehicles | Two cars together can reduce cost per car |
See our car transport cost guide. Pay by card, bank transfer or cash, with business invoicing by arrangement.
Booking a collection
- Call or WhatsApp 07598 314366 with both addresses and the vehicle details.
- We confirm a fixed price and a collection window.
- We collect, secure and transport the vehicle.
- We deliver it and hand over the keys.
If the delivery address isn't ready, the vehicle can wait in our secure storage yard.
Insured and accredited
We carry goods in transit, public liability and road risks insurance. We are PAS 43 accredited and hold ISO 9001 for quality management.
Getting ready for collection day
Check the car is paid for and released, especially if it is coming from an auction. Make sure the keys will be with the vehicle, remove loose items from inside, and let the seller, garage or neighbour know when we are due. If access is tight, such as a narrow drive or a gated yard, tell us in advance so we send the right truck.
Buying a car that won't start?
If the car you are buying has been sitting a long time, ask the seller whether it starts, whether the wheels turn freely and whether the keys are available. Our guide on why a car won't start gives some useful background.
