Trade Plate Vehicle Movements in Peterborough

Auction collections from BCA Bedford, Manheim Northampton and Essex

There is no auction yard in Peterborough. BCA Bedford and Manheim Northampton are the nearest sites, while BCA Chelmsford and Manheim Frating cover lots bought further east.

We confirm your lot has been released before a driver heads onto the A1. How it all works is explained on auction collection after release. If the lot is salvage, it will need to go on a transporter.

For the other end of a move, see trade plate vehicle movements in Wisbech or trade plate vehicle movements in Cambridge.

Fengate, Lynch Wood and the roads around Peterborough

Most drives reach the city at junction 17 of the A1(M). The A47 runs west to Leicester and east to Wisbech, the A15 heads north to Lincoln and the A605 goes out to Oundle. Whittlesey, Hampton, Werrington, Stamford, Oundle and Wisbech are all close neighbours.

Trade units at Fengate, Orton and Lynch Wood have barriers and site managers, while Cathedral Square, Bridge Street and the city centre streets are tight. Customers in Werrington, Hampton or Longthorpe need a legal place for the driver to stop, and a match at London Road fills the roads nearby.

PE1 around the cathedral, PE3 towards Lynch Wood and PE7 towards Whittlesey are very different addresses, and PE13 belongs to Wisbech, so please give the full postcode. A short hop from Fengate to Werrington is one job, and so is a run from Peterborough to Glasgow.

Peterborough station on the East Coast Main Line

Peterborough station sits on the East Coast Main Line, giving our driver a fast way home after a one way delivery. That is the station we plan around for every drop in the city.

Group transfers and fleet vans across the city

A typical Peterborough booking is a group moving a car between a site in Fengate and a satellite in Hampton, or a part exchange heading to BCA Bedford once it is legal to drive. Fleet vans come off Lynch Wood and Fengate, and every one needs a valid MOT.

When a customer in Werrington is expecting their car, our driver delivers it to the door, with no trailer blocking a terrace off Lincoln Road. We cover site transfers and retail handovers in more detail elsewhere.

We move one vehicle at a time, so your car never waits for a transporter to fill its deck on the A1. Add a named contact and any barrier code for locked units at Fengate.

Planning around the A1 at Wansford

Closures on the A1 at Wansford, delays on the A47 and a Hampton address booked as PE1 are the usual causes of delay. Give us the PE district, barrier code and who to ask for, so the driver goes straight to BCA Bedford or a house in Werrington.

The paperwork never changes. A short hop from Hampton to Fengate gets photos at collection and a signature on delivery, just like a long run north.

Booking a PE1 movement with OVM
