Trowbridge, Wiltshire, UK

Trowbridge, Wiltshire, UK is a desirable location, but residents frequently require car transport services. People rely on these services for purchasing second-hand cars from nearby locations or importing luxury vehicles. Fortunately, our network of transporters can accommodate any car transport need within Wiltshire.



There are two primary methods for moving cars: transporting on a trailer or driving with a professional trade plate driver. Having your vehicle driven is often the most cost-effective option, but it involves adding mileage to your car and requires a valid MOT. However, the vehicle doesn't need tax or registration, as it can be driven by a 'trade plate driver' using a special registration plate over the existing plates. Trailered Trowbridge car transport services offer various options. Single car transporters carry one car at a time and tend to be more expensive. Multi-car transporters can transport several vehicles simultaneously, reducing car transport Trowbridge costs and proving useful if your car is not running or roadworthy.

If you're moving a luxury or classic car, you may prefer a covered or enclosed service, which provides the safest option by protecting the vehicle from the elements. This service tends to be more expensive, as these trailers often carry only one or two cars at a time. For overseas car shipping, specialized companies have relationships with large freight liners and can advise on the required procedures and shipping documentation. The most secure but expensive option is via a 20ft or 40ft shipping container, although some systems can reduce costs by fitting up to five cars in one container. A more affordable option is 'roll-on / roll-off' (RORO), where your vehicle is driven directly onto the vessel and secured.


Preparing Your Car for Trowbridge Car Transport


Once you've accepted a quote for your Trowbridge car transport and agreed on the dates, we recommend preparing your car for transport:


Documentation: Ensure you have all the necessary paperwork, especially if you're distance-selling.


Cleaning: Remove accessories and valuables from the vehicle, as these are unlikely to be insured. Secure or remove any items that could come loose during transit.


Running condition: Record the vehicle's performance before transport, allowing you to identify any changes upon completion. Ensure fluid and fuel levels are adequate if the vehicle will be driven during delivery.


Cleaning: Clean your vehicle to prevent damage caused by dirt rubbing against the paintwork and to make it easier to notice any scratches or scrapes that occur during transport.


Evidence: Take photographs before your vehicle is transported to prove any damage incurred during transit.


Checking Car Condition and Leaving Feedback for Trowbridge Car Transport


Upon your vehicle's arrival, you should check:


Vital signs: Verify that all essential functions are as you left them: lights, engine, brakes, and any special features unique to your vehicle. If you purchased the vehicle online or from a dealership, ensure everything matches the description.


Mileage: Check if the car has traveled the expected distance. If not, raise this issue with the transporter.


Paint: Inspect for damage by comparing it to the photographs taken before transportation.

Will My Goods Be Tied Up Securely?

Can Items Be Taken Upstairs?

Can I Change The Address Of The Delivery?

Does Someone Have To Be Present For Pickup And Delivery?

Can I Keep Items In My Vehicle?

Most car delivery companies will be fine with you keeping some personal items in the vehicle when it is transported. However, there are two important things to remember: 1. The weight of the items may affect the price of the vehicle delivery, and 2. Any items in the vehicle will not be covered by insurance for the transport of the car itself.

Can I Transport My Vehicle If It Isn't Running?

You can transport your vehicle if it isn’t in running condition, however, this will be more expensive as specialist equipment is required to load and unload the vehicle.
