Sat on the drive since the MOT ran out? Tyres flat, key lost years ago, brakes seized solid? We move vehicles that haven’t turned a wheel in years, without wrecking your driveway or the car.
A non-runner is anything that can’t be driven onto a truck under its own power. Seized engine, gearbox that won’t select, no keys, flat tyres, or a rolling shell with no engine in it at all.
Equipment is what matters here. A car that won’t roll or steer can’t just be winched up a ramp. We carry specialist skates that go under each wheel and let it move regardless.
Then a controlled winch pulls it onto the flatbed, secured with soft straps at proper chassis points. Slow, steady, and no damage to a vehicle that’s often fragile already.
Steering lock on, can't select neutral, immobiliser refusing to acknowledge anything. Skates and a winch load it without needing a key at all.
Seized brakes, perished tyres and a battery that died three winters ago. Standard for us and no reason it can't be moved today.
Driveway collection planned around the access, the surface and the room available. Gravel, lawn and block paving all get handled differently.
Project cars and part-disassembled restoration vehicles moved between workshops or to a new owner. Loose parts boxed and labelled first.
SORN with no tax and no MOT is fine. On a flatbed it's being carried rather than driven, so neither is required.
Garage transfer jobs where a workshop can't get a car running and it needs to go to a specialist who can.
Skates, winch and long line gear carried as standard.
Narrow driveways and side alleys are normal work for us.
Slow, controlled loading on vehicles that are often fragile.
Ask for a valuation before you pay to move it anywhere.
Call or message us anytime for immediate assistance.
Our team reaches you quickly and assesses the situation.
We recover, transport or buy your vehicle - simple and hassle free.
Excellent service! They arrived quickly and recovered my car in no time. Very professional and friendly team.
Very reliable and affordable transport service. My car was delivered safely the next day. Highly recommended!
Sold my van the same day and got a fair price. The whole process was smooth and stress free.
Yes. This is one of our most common jobs. Skates and a winch, no keys required at any point.
No. Flat tyres are standard for non-runners. The skates go underneath and the wheels never need to turn.
No. On a flatbed it’s being carried, not driven. A SORN vehicle with no tax and no MOT is perfectly fine.
We work carefully, but tell us the surface when you call. Soft ground and loose gravel need a different approach to tarmac.
Often, using long line winching. Send us a photo of the access and we’ll tell you straight away.
Yes. We buy non-runners in any condition. Worth asking for a valuation before you pay for a recovery you might not need.
