Trade plate vehicle movements in Norwich and Norfolk

Reaching Norwich on the A11 and the A47

Longer drives reach Norwich on the A11 from London and Thetford. The A47 serves as the southern bypass and links Great Yarmouth with King's Lynn, the A140 runs to Ipswich and the A146 heads for Lowestoft. A closure at the Thickthorn junction or a match day at Carrow Road can hold everything up, so we agree a realistic collection time rather than promising a same day slot.

London Street, Unthank Road and the Lanes around the market are tight, and a unit on Sweet Briar or Broadland Business Park is a very different stop from a house in Eaton or Mile Cross. Give us the exact postcode and a named contact so the driver heads straight to the right place.

Norwich station is the end of the line, which gives our driver a simple way home after a one way delivery. Wymondham sits on the same route and we pick whichever suits the drop.

Local moves across Costessey, Wymondham and Thorpe St Andrew

A short hop is as welcome as a long run. Collecting at Sweet Briar and delivering to Eaton is one job, and so is collecting in Norwich and delivering to Glasgow. Costessey, Wymondham, Thorpe St Andrew, Dereham and Thetford are all regular stops.

If the car is in Sprowston, book it through our Sprowston vehicle movements page so the address and postcode match from the start.

Auction collections from BCA Chelmsford and Manheim Frating

There is no auction site in Norwich, so most Norfolk buyers collect from BCA Chelmsford or Manheim Frating near Colchester. If you bought further west, we also collect from BCA Bedford.

We confirm with the auction that your lot has been released before a driver heads south, then bring it straight back up the A11 to your forecourt. Our guide to auction collection after release covers the steps. If the lot is salvage, it cannot go on plates and a transporter is the answer.

Dealer transfers and Sweet Briar fleet vans

A typical Norwich booking is an independent sending a car to a group site in London or Peterborough, or a part exchange going to BCA Chelmsford once it is legal to drive. Fleet vans come off Sweet Briar, Broadland Business Park and the units around the airport, and each one needs a valid MOT before we can take it.

If you have promised a customer on Unthank Road a delivery to their door, our driver arrives in the car itself, with no trailer blocking a terraced street. There is more on site transfers and customer handovers here. A locked unit by the airport and a gated house in Eaton need different arrangements, so please add a barrier code and a contact.

Booking your NR movement with OVM

Please check the vehicle is roadworthy and legal to drive, with an MOT in place where required. Our plates go on the car, and motor trade road risk insurance covers it right up to the signature at delivery. Condition, photos and keys are recorded at collection, and you get proof of collection and delivery together by email. Our pages on driven vehicle movements and UK coverage explain more.
