From our Glasgow office the run is up the M80 or the M9 and onto the M90, leaving at junction 10 for Broxden. We price it as a single driven move from one postcode to the other. Give us your name, company, phone and email, with a named contact at each end, and we will agree a date you can keep.

Auction collections for Perth buyers from Newbridge, Livingston and Glasgow

There is no auction yard in Perth, so Tayside buyers usually collect from the central belt. BCA Newbridge and BCA Livingston are the Lothian sites, BCA Glasgow and Central Car Auctions Glasgow lie to the west and Manheim Shotts is to the south.

We confirm your lot has been released before a driver heads down the M90. For the full routine, read auction collection after release. Salvage cars and vans are not something we can drive.

For the other end of a move, see trade plate vehicle movements in Dundee or trade plate vehicle movements in Edinburgh. Broughty Ferry has its own page too.

Inveralmond, Craigie and the roads out of Perth

The A9 runs north to Inverness and south to Stirling, the A85 heads west to Crieff and the A93 goes north to Blairgowrie. Scone, Bridge of Earn, Almondbank, Dunkeld, Dundee and Stirling are all close neighbours.

Units at Inveralmond and The Triangle have barriers and site managers, while South Street, George Street and the streets off the High Street are tight. Customers in Craigie or North Muirton need a legal place for the driver to stop, and queues at Broxden or haar on the river can change the plan.

Scone and Bridge of Earn are separate villages, PH1 sits west of the Tay and PH2 east towards Scone, and a DD1 postcode belongs to Dundee. Please give the exact address. A short hop from Inveralmond to Craigie is one job, and so is a run from Perth to a buyer in England.

Perth station and the trip home

Perth station sits on both the Highland line and the line to Glasgow, which makes it an easy way home for our driver after a one way delivery into the city.

Dealer transfers and fleet vans across Tayside

A typical Perth booking is an independent sending a car to a group site in Dundee or Glasgow, or a part exchange heading to Newbridge once it is legal to drive. Fleet vans come off Inveralmond and The Triangle, and every one needs a valid MOT.

When a customer in Craigie is expecting their car, our driver brings it to the door, with no trailer blocking a terrace off Glasgow Road. Everything about handing cars to your customers is explained there.

We move single vehicles, so your car never waits for a transporter to fill its deck on the A9. Add a named contact and any barrier code for locked units at The Triangle.

Planning around Broxden and the A9

Queues at Broxden, an A9 closure to the north and a Scone address booked as Perth are the usual causes of delay. Tell us the PH district, barrier code and who to ask for, so the driver goes straight to BCA Newbridge or a house in Craigie.

Short or long, the records never change. A short hop from Bridge of Earn into Perth gets photos at collection and a signature on delivery, just like a long run south.

Booking a PH1 movement with OVM

Please have the keys ready and make sure the vehicle is legal to drive, with an MOT where required. Once the car is signed for, you get one email with both proofs. Read how a driven movement works and how we serve the UK from Glasgow.

Your instant quote needs only the registration, both postcodes and dates, with no account required. You can also phone 0141 459 1302.
