Trade plate vehicle movements in Guisborough and east Cleveland

Getting around Guisborough: the A171, the A173 and the A174

The A171 runs through the town, towards Middlesbrough in one direction and over the moor to Whitby in the other. The A173 heads to Stokesley, and the A174 coastal dual carriageway is the better road when the other postcode is in Redcar. The A171 in winter is a very different road from the A19, so we agree a realistic date rather than promising a same day slot.

Westgate gets busy on market day and the streets near the priory are no place for a trailer. The industrial estates on the north side of town, including Belmangate, usually have barriers. Hutton Lowcross is a different last stretch again. Pinchinthorpe, Charltons and Lockwood Beck are villages in their own right, so give us the exact postcode and village name.

Collecting in Nunthorpe and delivering in Guisborough is one job, and so is a long run to Glasgow. Stokesley, Redcar, Saltburn and Middlesbrough are close neighbours, with Whitby along the A171. Guisborough has no railway station, so after a one way delivery our driver heads for Nunthorpe or Gypsy Lane on the Esk Valley line, or for Middlesbrough.

Auction collections from Manheim Washington, Wilsons Birtley and BCA Newcastle

There is no auction yard on Teesside, so most Guisborough buyers collect from Manheim Washington, a run up the A19. Wilsons Auctions Birtley and BCA Newcastle upon Tyne are the other Tyneside choices, and BCA Leeds is the option to the south.

Our team confirms release with the auction first, so a driver is never sent to a lot that is not ready. Take a look at how auction collection after release works. Salvage cannot run on trade plates and needs a transporter.

Dealer transfers, part exchanges and Belmangate fleet vans

A typical Guisborough booking is an independent sending one car to a group site in Middlesbrough or Redcar, or a part exchange heading to Manheim Washington once it is legal to drive. Fleet vans come off the units on the north side of town, and each needs a valid MOT before we can move it.

If a customer off Westgate is waiting for their car, our driver arrives in it, with no transporter squeezing past the market stalls. Read how we run site transfers and retail handovers. Market streets and A171 business parks need different instructions, so please add a named contact.

A transporter wants a full deck before it sets off, and one legal car from Belmangate will not fill it. A single driven movement gets your vehicle on its way without the wait.

Planning around A171 closures and A19 queues

Closures on the A171 towards Whitby, queues on the A19 and a Stokesley address booked as Guisborough are the usual causes of delay. For a lot at Manheim Washington the A19 is the run, and release must be confirmed first. A house in Hutton should never start with a trip to Westgate, so the full address matters.

Let us know a date you can commit to and we will work the drive around it. A short hop from Nunthorpe gets the same care as a long run north: condition recorded before the car moves, a signature on delivery and one report by email.

Booking a TS14 movement with OVM

Cars, electric vehicles and light commercial vans are all welcome, provided they are roadworthy and legal to drive with a valid MOT where one is required. Rigid lorries and other HGVs are not something we can take. You can find out more about driven trade plate vehicle movements and how OVM covers the UK from Glasgow.
