Trade plate vehicle movements in Broughty Ferry and east Dundee

Reaching Broughty Ferry on the A90, A92 and A930

From Glasgow our drivers take the M80 or M9, then the M90 and A90 to Dundee. Locally the A92 Dundee to Arbroath road and the A930 through the Ferry towards Monifieth do most of the work, and the Tay Bridge takes jobs south of the water.

Every part of the Ferry has its own last stretch. Brook Street is shops with little room to stop and Gray Street runs to the station, while Queen Street and Church Street are quiet residential roads. Castle Green and the harbour fill up in good weather, while Claypotts sits up on the A92 and Forthill and Balgillo look down over the old fishing town.

Monifieth, Barnhill, Dundee, Newport-on-Tay, Tayport and Carnoustie are all neighbours. Monifieth to the Ferry is a perfectly good booking, and so is the Ferry to Glasgow.

DD5 or DD1? Getting the address right

A booking that says Broughty Ferry but turns out to be a Dundee city centre site wastes a run along the water, so send the exact postcode. Carnoustie and Monifieth lie further east, while Newport-on-Tay and Tayport are on the Fife side of the bridge. We cover them all, but we need to know which bank of the Tay the car is on.

Broughty Ferry station is on the Dundee to Aberdeen line, which gives our driver a simple way home after a one way delivery. If the other end is in Glasgow, you can also read about trade plate vehicle movements in Glasgow.

Auction collections from BCA Newbridge, BCA Livingston and Glasgow

There is no BCA or Manheim site in Dundee, so Tayside buyers usually collect from BCA Newbridge or BCA Livingston. BCA Glasgow and Central Car Auctions Glasgow sit further west, and Manheim Shotts is in Lanarkshire.

We confirm release with the exact site you bought from before a driver heads off, then bring the lot up the M90 to your door. Everything you need to send us is listed under auction collection after release. Salvage vehicles stay on a transporter.

Dealer stock, retail handovers and fleet cars on Tayside

Common bookings include a Dundee group moving stock onto a Ferry satellite, a lot leaving Newbridge for a Tayside forecourt and fleet cars coming off employee drives towards Barnhill.

For a retail handover on a street off Brook Street, our driver arrives in the car itself, never a loaded deck. Read how site transfers and retail handovers work with OVM. Harbour parking and a customer in a close need different instructions, so add a named contact and any access details.

Haar on the Tay, a closed Tay Bridge and busy Esplanade parking in the school holidays can all affect the day. Choose a date you can keep and we will plan around it.

Booking a Broughty Ferry vehicle movement

Every vehicle must be roadworthy and legal to drive with a valid MOT where required. If you suspect it may not be, please tell us before a driver is booked onto the A90. We photograph the panels and record the mileage at collection, take a signature at handover and email you one report. There is more on driven trade plate movements and our UK coverage from Glasgow.

You need no account to ask for a price. The instant quote shows it on screen once you enter the registration, both postcodes and your dates, or you can call our Glasgow office on 0141 459 1302.
