Irlam sits in Salford on the Manchester Ship Canal, with Cadishead beside it, junction 11 of the M62 close by and BCA Carrington the next place along the water. No account is needed to get a price, and an account only changes how you are invoiced.

The A57, the M62 and the road to Carrington

The A57 runs east to Eccles and west to Warrington, junction 11 of the M62 brings in our long runs and the A6144 is the road across to Carrington. Even with the compound so close, we agree a realistic date rather than promising a same day slot.

Liverpool Road gets busy at school time, the canal side and Cadishead industrial land have barriers, and homes towards the Moss need someone in and a legal place to stop. Cadishead, Higher Irlam and a yard towards the docks each have their own last stretch, so please send the exact postcode.

Collecting in Cadishead and delivering in Irlam is one job, and so is a run from Irlam to Glasgow. Urmston, Eccles, Warrington and Partington are neighbours. If your car is in the city centre, see trade plate vehicle movements in Manchester. Irlam station sits on the Liverpool to Manchester line via Warrington, which gives our driver an easy way home after a one way delivery.

BCA Carrington is next door, and release still comes first

Most Irlam buyers mean BCA Carrington when they say auction, because it is right on the doorstep. Manheim Manchester is the city option and Manheim Haydock lies to the west.

Being next door is exactly when release checks get skipped, so we always confirm with Carrington, or whichever site you used, before a driver is sent. That way nobody loses a morning at the barrier. Our auction collection after release page explains how a Carrington pickup runs. Salvage lots from Carrington still need a transporter.

Dealer moves around Salford and Trafford

Dealers in Irlam, Cadishead and Urmston mostly send stock to group sites across Salford and Trafford, and part exchanges go to Carrington once they are legal. Fleet vans come off canal side units, each with a valid MOT and each moved on its own.

For a customer in Cadishead or on a street off Liverpool Road, our driver arrives in the car itself. Canal yards often close early and gate codes change from week to week, so please add a named contact and this week's code. Our approach to site transfers and retail handovers is the same in Salford as anywhere.

Swing bridges, junction 11 and the right address

Closures at junction 11 of the M62, delays at the Ship Canal swing bridges and a Cadishead collection booked under Irlam are the usual hold ups. Choose a date you can keep and tell us whether the car is at BCA Carrington or a house in Higher Irlam, so the driver heads straight there.

Living next to the compound is no reason to skip the record. A short hop from Cadishead still comes with photos at collection, a signature on delivery and one report by email.

Booking an M44 movement with OVM

We bring the trade plates, but the vehicle needs its own valid MOT where one is required and must be legal to drive. Anything else needs a transporter. Our motor trade road risk insurance covers the car until it is signed for. Find out about driven trade plate vehicle movements and how OVM covers the UK from Glasgow.
