Booking works exactly as it does anywhere else. We plan the drive from our Glasgow office, down the M74, M6 and M1, round the M25 and up the M11, and quote it as one driven movement from postcode to postcode.

The B184, the M11 and the roads around Saffron Walden

The B184 runs through town, north to the M11 and south to Thaxted, and most drives join the motorway at junction 9 or 10. The A11 is close by at Stump Cross and the A1301 heads up to Cambridge. Market days pinch the centre, so we agree a sensible collection date rather than promising a same day slot.

The High Street and the roads around the common are narrow. Units on Shire Hill normally have barriers, and homes towards Ashdon Road need somewhere legal for the driver to stop, so add the details to your booking.

Audley End station sits outside the town on the West Anglia Main Line, with trains to Cambridge and London Liverpool Street. We plan the road hop there for our driver after a one way delivery.

Sewards End, Audley End and Newport in Essex

A CB postcode here means Essex, not Cambridge. Sewards End, Shire Hill and Audley End village are all different last stretches, and Thaxted and the Essex Newport are separate places. Audley End house and Audley End station are not in the town either, so give us the exact postcode and village name.

Short hops are as welcome as long runs. Collecting in Newport and delivering in Saffron Walden is one job, and collecting in Saffron Walden and delivering to Glasgow is another. Haverhill, Bishop's Stortford and Cambridge are all close neighbours.

Auction collections from BCA Chelmsford, BCA Enfield and Manheim Frating

With no auction site in town, many buyers collect from BCA Chelmsford, a run down the A130 once the lot is legal to drive. BCA Enfield sits on the edge of London, Manheim Frating covers east Essex and BCA Bedford lies further west.

Our office checks your lot has been released before a driver leaves, so nobody waits at the gate. Read more about auction collection after release. Salvage vehicles cannot travel on trade plates and need a transporter.

North Essex dealer stock, part exchanges and Shire Hill fleet vans

Saffron Walden dealers often need a single car taken to a group site in Cambridge or Bishop's Stortford. A driven movement takes it straight there rather than waiting for a transporter to fill its deck on the M11. Part exchanges can go to Chelmsford once they are legal.

Fleet vans come off the Shire Hill Industrial Estate and need a valid MOT. If you have promised a customer near Sewards End a door delivery, our driver arrives in the car itself and hands it over in person. Find out how we handle site transfers and retail handovers.

M11 closures at junction 9, market day traffic or an Audley End car booked as Saffron Walden are the usual causes of delay. Get the address right and the record is the same on a Newport hop as on a long run: photos at collection, a signature on delivery and one emailed report.

Booking a CB10 or CB11 movement

We move cars and light vans that are roadworthy and legal to drive, with a valid MOT where one is required. HGVs and rigid lorries are not something we take. Our trade plates and motor trade road risk insurance cover the vehicle from collection until it is signed for.
