Bodmin sits in mid Cornwall with the moor to the north east and the A30 as its lifeline. It is the far end of the map from our Glasgow office, but it is still one driven movement. Independents in Bodmin, Wadebridge and around the moor book us so a car can travel to or from the rest of the country without waiting for a transporter to fill up on the A30.
The A30, the A389 and the A38 into Bodmin
The A30 dual carriageway brings our drivers into Cornwall, and the A389 drops into town before carrying on to Wadebridge and Padstow. The A38 through Liskeard is the southern alternative when the other postcode is on the south coast.
Walker Lines, the A30 junction at Lanivet and a farm lane towards Cardinham are three very different last stretches. If the car is on the moor, name the village, such as Blisland. The A30 runs quickly most of the time, but we plan for the days it does not.
Bodmin Parkway, Wadebridge and the neighbouring towns
Bodmin Parkway station sits outside the town, down towards the Fowey valley. If the car is there rather than in town, tell us, so the driver does not head down to Fore Street first. The station is also how our driver gets home on the Cornish main line after a one way delivery, and we plan the road hop from town as part of the job.
Wadebridge, Lostwithiel, Liskeard, St Austell and Launceston all share work with Bodmin. A collection in Wadebridge delivered to Bodmin is one job, and a Bodmin collection going anywhere in the country is booked the same way. Please give the town and postcode rather than just mid Cornwall.
Auction lots from Manheim Saltash and BCA Bridgwater
The nearest auction for Bodmin buyers is Manheim Saltash, on the Tamar at the Cornwall and Devon border. Our driver collects after release and brings the car home over the Tamar and along the A38 or A30. BCA Bridgwater, back up the A30 and M5 in Somerset, is the next option if you bought there.
We confirm release with your site before a driver is sent. Find the steps in auction collection after release. Any lot that cannot be driven legally needs a transporter instead.
Cornish dealer transfers and home deliveries on the moor
Typical bookings include a Cornish independent sending a car to a group site in Plymouth or Exeter, a part exchange heading to Saltash once it is legal to drive, a lease return and a single van that cannot wait for a loaded transporter heading east.
A customer in a village on the moor who was promised a driver gets one, arriving in their car. A handover on a steep street off Fore Street means meeting someone at the door, while a unit at Walker Lines usually means a barrier and a code. See how we run site transfers and retail handovers, and add named contacts at both ends.
MOT, proof and booking from PL31
The vehicle must be roadworthy with a valid MOT where one is required, however far it is going. Light vans are welcome, while HGVs and salvage are not. Our driver takes photos and records the mileage at collection, and the receiver signs at delivery, with digital proof sent once the job is done.
