## The South East is the region. 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. The South East is a collection and delivery region, not a second office.

A car or van collected in the South East 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.

### South East work

Collections and deliveries across the region, including Reading, Southampton, Crawley and Oxford. The quote is the two postcodes, not a region rate.

### The roads drivers actually use

The M25, M20, M3 and M23 are the motorways on this work, plus the A roads between them. One driver, one car or van, door to door.

## Auction collection in the South East

Dealers book site transfers and retail handovers. Auction buyers book collection once the release is confirmed. Fleets book cars and vans that still drive. The vehicle is photographed at collection, driven on OVM trade plates and signed for at delivery. You get digital proof of collection and delivery provided.

Compounds we collect from in the region include BCA Crawley, BCA Blackbushe and BCA Paddock Wood. Each site has its own gate procedure. We confirm release with them before a driver is sent. We do not invent that procedure here.

 [BCA Crawley](https://ovmtransport.com/auction-collection-bca-crawley)[BCA Blackbushe](https://ovmtransport.com/auction-collection-bca-camberley)[BCA Paddock Wood](https://ovmtransport.com/auction-collection-bca-paddock-wood)[Auction collection after you buy](https://ovmtransport.com/blog/auction-collection-after-you-buy)[Proof of collection and delivery](https://ovmtransport.com/blog/proof-of-collection-and-proof-of-delivery)

## 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 a South East 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

## Collected in the South East, handed over where you send it

Collected where the vehicle sits, driven on plates, delivered where it needs to be. One driver, photographs, a signature. Digital proof of collection and delivery provided.

How it runs

## What actually happens

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

- 01

### Send the registration and both postcodes

 South East to anywhere nationwide, or the other way. Date required as well.
- 02

 Valid MOT, drivable. If it is sitting at auction, 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 the South East?

Yes. OVM moves roadworthy cars and vans on trade plates across the South East and nationwide. The office is 48 West George Street, Glasgow, G2 1BP. Telephone 0141 459 1302.

 Is the work only inside the South East?

No. A South East collection can deliver anywhere nationwide. Collection and delivery can be at opposite ends of the country on the same job.

 Can you collect from auction in the South East?

Yes, once the release is confirmed. We collect from compounds we publish pages for, including BCA Crawley, BCA Blackbushe and BCA Paddock Wood. Each site runs its own gate procedure.

 Does the vehicle need a valid MOT?

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

Instant quote on this page, or call 0141 459 1302. Registration and both postcodes is usually enough. OVM Ltd, 48 West George Street, Glasgow, G2 1BP.

### 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.
