Most of our drives arrive from Glasgow by the M74 and then the A1(M) or the M62, coming off at junction 24 and up past Ainley Top. Each job is quoted as one driven movement between two postcodes, and we book a date you can keep rather than relying on a quiet motorway. Fill in your name, company, phone and email with a named contact at each end and we take it from there.

Auction collections from BCA Brighouse, Leeds and Normanton

The nearest auction to Huddersfield is BCA Brighouse, just up the road in the next town. Buyers who bid further afield often collect from BCA Leeds or Manheim Leeds, and BCA Normanton sits east along the M62.

Whichever site holds your lot, we confirm it has been released before a driver sets off. Find out more about auction collection after release. Salvage lots are the exception, as they cannot go on trade plates.

If the other end of the move is in the city, take a look at trade plate vehicle movements in Leeds.

Leeds Road, Lindley and the roads around Huddersfield

The A62 runs to Leeds one way and Oldham the other, the A629 links Halifax and Sheffield, the A640 climbs towards Rochdale and the A616 is the road to Holmfirth. Brighouse, Halifax, Holmfirth, Mirfield, Dewsbury and Leeds are all close neighbours.

Each part of town has its own approach. Trade units on Leeds Road, St Andrews and Turnbridge have barriers and site managers, while King Street, New Street and the streets around St George's Square are tight. Customers in Lindley or Crosland Moor need somewhere legal for the driver to pull in, and a match at the John Smith's can fill the roads by the Colne.

Brighouse and Holmfirth are separate places, so please give the full address and postcode. Garforth and Keighley have their own pages if either is the other end of your move. A short hop from Leeds Road to Lindley is one job, and so is a run from Huddersfield to Glasgow.

Huddersfield station and the trip home

Huddersfield station sits on the trans Pennine line and gives our driver a simple way home after a one way delivery. Deighton serves the side of town towards the M62, while Lockwood, Berry Brow and Brockholes run south towards Holmfirth, so we choose whichever stop suits each drop best.

Dealer moves, part exchanges and fleet vans across Kirklees

A typical Huddersfield booking is an independent sending a car to a group site in Leeds or Manchester, or a part exchange heading to Brighouse once it is legal to drive. Fleet vans come off St Andrews and Leeds Road, and every one needs a valid MOT before we can move it.

Retail handovers get the same attention. When a buyer in Lindley or Edgerton is expecting a car at their door, our driver arrives in the vehicle itself, with no trailer blocking a terraced street in Lockwood. Our page on dealer site transfers and handovers explains more.

Because we move single vehicles, your car never waits for a transporter to fill its deck on the M62. Please add a named contact and any gate code for locked units at Turnbridge.

Keeping clear of Ainley Top hold ups

Closures on the M62 at Ainley Top and queues on the A62 are the usual causes of delay, along with a Holmfirth address booked under Huddersfield. Tell us the estate name, barrier code and who to ask for, and the driver will go straight to BCA Brighouse or the right house in Crosland Moor without a detour into town.

The paperwork is the same on every drive. A short hop from Lockwood to Lindley gets photos at collection and a signature on delivery, just like a long run north, and the auction will not hold a lot because New Street was parked out.

Common questions

If your question is not here, call the Glasgow office and we will answer it on the spot.

0141 459 1302
Which Huddersfield postcodes do you cover?

Every district in and around Huddersfield, including HD1 and HD6. If yours is not on that list it is almost certainly still covered, because we work right across Kirklees.

Do you cover the areas around Huddersfield?

Yes. A driver working Huddersfield also covers Elland, Brighouse, Mirfield, Cleckheaton and Heckmondwike. Collection and delivery can be at either end of the same job.

How quickly can you get a driver to Huddersfield?

It depends on where the driver is finishing their previous job. Huddersfield is served by Berry Brow, Brighouse and Brockholes, which is how our drivers travel in for a collection or get home after a one-way delivery. Decent rail access usually means a quicker turnaround.
