Find suitable car transport companies for private, trade, fleet and non-runner vehicle moves across the UK.

Car transport can mean a single private vehicle, a dealer transfer, an auction collection, a fleet movement or a non-runner recovery style move. Vehicle movements may need an enclosed transporter, open transporter, trailer or recovery style collection depending on value, condition, access and timescale. CTS helps you describe the job clearly, then routes the requirement to providers who can assess access, timing, vehicle condition, insurance needs and the most practical method.

Car transport cost depends on distance, collection and delivery points, vehicle size, urgency, running condition, loading needs, route efficiency and whether the move is open, enclosed, single car or multi-car. A non-runner may need winching or specialist loading, which affects availability and price. Business buyers may also need timed collections, handover records, repeat movements or fleet coordination. CTS does not quote instantly, but helps place the enquiry with relevant companies for proper assessment.

Use the quote form on this page to give CTS the practical details. Your request is handled privately, shared only with suitable providers and remains free for shippers with no obligation to appoint.

Common questions

Costs, details, suitability and how the CTS matching process works.

Do car transport companies drive the car or carry it?
Both methods can be used. Some moves are completed on a transporter or trailer, while others may be handled as a driven movement when the vehicle is road legal, insured and suitable.
What affects car transport cost?
Cost is usually shaped by distance, route, vehicle size, running condition, loading requirements, urgency, access at both ends and whether the vehicle needs open, enclosed, single or shared transport.
Can a non-runner be transported?
Yes, many providers can move non-runners, but they need the correct loading equipment. It is important to state whether the vehicle rolls, steers, brakes and has keys.
Can CTS arrange business or fleet car movements?
CTS can match business and fleet enquiries with suitable providers for dealer moves, lease returns, staff vehicle moves, auction work or multi-vehicle transport requirements.
Does CTS operate car transport vehicles?
No. CTS matches buyers with relevant transport providers. We do not operate vehicles, provide instant prices or act as the carrier for the movement.
