## Aberdeen is on the map. The office is in Glasgow.

OVM Ltd is a Glasgow company. The office is 48 West George Street, Glasgow, G2 1BP. The number is 0141 459 1302. Aberdeen is a collection and delivery point, not a second office.

A car or van in Aberdeen can go anywhere nationwide. The other way round is the same job. Send both postcodes on the form on this page.

We only drive what is legal to drive: valid MOT, drivable. If it cannot legally be driven, a transporter is the right tool and we will say so.

### Aberdeen work

Collections and deliveries across Aberdeen and Aberdeen City. The quote is the two postcodes, not a city rate.

### Nationwide

An Aberdeen collection can deliver anywhere nationwide. The other way round is the same job.

## Auction collection into Aberdeen

There is no auction compound in Aberdeen itself. Stock you buy further south still needs collecting. We go once the release is confirmed, then drive a roadworthy car or van up the road on trade plates.

Each compound has its own gate procedure. We ask the site. We do not invent it here. Digital proof of collection is taken at the compound. Proof of delivery is taken when it is handed over in Aberdeen, or wherever you send it.

## Not a transporter, not a rate card

OVM is not a low-loader firm. One roadworthy car or van, door to door, is the work. Salvage, non-runners, or several vehicles going the same way as one load belong on a transporter. We will tell you which one the job needs.

There is no published pound figure for an Aberdeen run. The quote is the actual collection and delivery, the vehicle and whether it is same day or planned. Instant quote on this page, or call the office.

In practice

## Release first, then the drive north

Bought further south, needed in Aberdeen. We wait for the compound to confirm release, then a driver takes a roadworthy car or van on trade plates.

How it runs

## What actually happens

Four steps. Most of them are ours rather than yours.

- 01

### Send the registration and both postcodes

 Aberdeen to anywhere nationwide, or the other way. Say if it is sitting at auction.
- 02

### We confirm it can be driven

 Valid MOT, drivable. If it is in a compound, we wait for release.
- 03

### A driver collects on trade plates

 Photographs and mileage before the wheels turn.
- 04

### Handover and the proof

 Signature at delivery. Proof of collection and proof of delivery emailed when the job closes.

 Instant Quote0141 459 1302

 Do you cover Aberdeen?

Yes. OVM covers Aberdeen nationwide. We drive roadworthy cars and vans on trade plates, door to door. The office is in Glasgow: 48 West George Street, G2 1BP. Telephone 0141 459 1302.

 Can you collect from auction and deliver into Aberdeen?

Yes, once the release is confirmed. There is no auction compound in Aberdeen itself. Compounds sit further south. We collect when the site says the vehicle can leave, then drive it if it is legal to drive.

 Is an MOT required?

Yes. Valid MOT and drivable only. If it cannot legally be driven, a transporter is the right tool and we will say so.

### What to confirm before you book a trade plate driver

Dealers already have posts on failed collections, part-ex, one registration and release codes. Controllers still send half a job and then ring at noon asking where the car is. This is the checklist the office runs before a driver leaves. Bookmark it. Hand it to whoever books. Instant quote on this page or call 0141 459 1302.

### Name the collector before the driver sits in the lane

The compound will not release a lot to a stranger at the barrier. Buying it is not naming who is collecting. OVM has to be the named collector, with identification and plates, before a driver is sent. If you name nobody, the driver waits in the lane and storage keeps running. Instant quote on this page or call 0141 459 1302.

### A wasted journey is usually paperwork, not the drive

A wasted journey is usually paperwork, not the drive. Four things fail a collection: no release, no keys, no valid MOT, or the window is shut. OVM will not pretend a driver can magic those. A wasted collection can still attract the fee. Confirm it before we dispatch. Instant quote on this page or call 0141 459 1302.

### Collecting a part-ex from a customer's drive

A part-ex collection is the car still on a customer's drive. Not a compound. Not a dealer roof. Not a sold car going to a buyer. There has to be a named contact who actually has the keys. The car still has to be legal to drive. If they are out, or the V5 is in a kitchen drawer, the job fails. Instant quote on this page or call 0141 459 1302.
