There is no motorway into Chelmsford, so movements run on the A12, A130, A131, A138 and A414. This is the sort of job where sending a driver makes far more sense than waiting for a transporter to fill up, because a single vehicle is not worth a lorry's time.
A one-way delivery means the driver travels back by train. Chelmsford is served by Beaulieu Park and Chelmsford. We plan the return leg when we schedule the job, so it does not hold up the handover at your end.
If you buy at auction, the closest compounds to Chelmsford are BCA Chelmsford, BCA Enfield and Manheim Colchester. We check the release details and the gate procedure before sending anyone, so your car is not sat waiting on paperwork while the storage clock runs.
