Choosing the method

Driven or transported car delivery from Bradford

Driven car delivery suits a roadworthy vehicle with a valid MOT, and transported delivery suits a vehicle that cannot or should not be driven. Around 95% of our movements are driven.

Driven, the core service

Driven on trade plates

Roadworthy vehicles with a valid MOT.
Trade plates cover vehicle tax for the journey.
Adds the road miles of the route, 203 miles from Bradford to London.
Collected and delivered door to door by our driver.
Insured up to £100,000 on every driven delivery.

Transported, when needed

Moved on a transporter

Driven delivery uses our own trade plates. A private job in Bradford is driven in the same way as our trade plate delivery for dealers and fleets, on our own DVLA issued trade plates.

Planning the route

Check the registration of a van on the government clean air zone checker before booking, and tell us if a charge applies so it is agreed before the movement.

The A650 runs north west to Shipley, Bingley and Keighley.
The A647 runs east to Leeds, and the A658 runs north to Leeds Bradford Airport.

Common questions

Car delivery service Bradford questions answered

These answers cover collection times, local pickups, MOT rules, auctions, commercial vehicles and coverage for Bradford car delivery.

How quickly can you collect a car in Bradford?

Collection in Bradford can often be arranged within a day or two, and sometimes sooner, depending on the route and availability. We confirm the collection window before booking, as part of our car collection and delivery service.

Can you collect a car in Shipley or Keighley on a Bradford job?

Yes. Shipley, Bingley and Keighley are collected like any Bradford address, and the price follows the road miles from the exact postcode.

Can you deliver a car from Bradford without an MOT?

Yes, on a transporter. Trade plates cover the tax but not the MOT, so a car without a valid MOT is not driven unless a legal exception applies. Our guide to trade plates, MOT and insurance explains the rules.

Do you collect auction vehicles around Bradford?

Yes. We collect lots won at auction sites around Bradford once the auction releases them, and deliver them to your home or forecourt anywhere in mainland UK. Our auction collection and delivery page covers the process.

Can you move a van or 7.5 tonne vehicle from Bradford?

Yes. Vans and vehicles up to 7.5 tonnes are driven on trade plates when roadworthy, on the same road mile rates as a car. Read more about commercial vehicle delivery and 7.5 tonne vehicle delivery.

Can you bring a second vehicle back from Bradford?

Yes. The return vehicle option in our calculator adds a second vehicle on the same route for £40 plus the same distance charge, so a swap or a part exchange is priced as one job.

Do you deliver from Bradford to anywhere in the UK?

Yes. We deliver from Bradford to any address in mainland England, Scotland and Wales, but not to Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland. The areas we cover page lists the cities with their own page.

Do you handle regular dealer and fleet work in Bradford?

Yes. Alongside one off private jobs, we handle repeat movements for dealers, leasing companies and fleet operators in Bradford, priced per route. Read more about our fleet vehicle movements.
