How much does car transport & recovery cost?

Every job is different, so we do not believe in one-size-fits-all pricing. Instead you get a clear, fixed quote for your exact vehicle and route — free, fast and with no obligation. Here is what shapes the price, and how to get yours.

What affects the price

A handful of things decide the cost of moving or recovering your vehicle. Tell us these details and we can give you an accurate fixed price in minutes.

Distance & route

The total mileage between collection and delivery is the biggest factor. Longer, cross-country moves cost more than a short local recovery, though busy corridors we already cover can work out keener.

Vehicle size & type

A small hatchback is quicker and easier to load than a large SUV, van or 4x4. Prestige and classic vehicles that need extra care or enclosed transport are priced accordingly.

Running or non-runner

Cars that start and roll load quickly. Non-runners, MOT failures, seized or accident-damaged vehicles need winching and take longer, which affects the price.

Urgency & timing

A planned collection booked in advance is usually cheaper than an immediate, middle-of-the-night emergency recovery. Weekends and bank holidays can also differ.

Access & location

Easy roadside or driveway access is straightforward. Tight streets, multi-storey car parks, fields, auction compounds or motorway hard shoulders can add to the job.

Number of vehicles

Moving more than one vehicle, or combining your job with another on the same route, can bring the per-vehicle price down. Ask us about multi-car moves.

Cost & pricing — common questions

How much does car recovery cost in the UK?

There is no single fixed price — it depends on distance, the vehicle, whether it runs and how urgent the job is. That is why we give you a clear, fixed quote up front for your exact job, with no hidden extras. Call 07400 400 954 or message us for an instant price.

How much does it cost to transport a car across the UK?

Long-distance car transport is priced on the mileage, the vehicle and its condition. Because we cover the main UK corridors regularly, we can often offer a competitive fixed price. Send us your collection and delivery postcodes for a free quote.

Do you charge more for a non-running car?

Non-runners, MOT failures and damaged vehicles take a little longer to load and secure with a winch, so they can cost slightly more than a car that drives — but you still get one clear, agreed price before we set off.

Is the quote free and is the price fixed?

Yes. Quotes are free and no-obligation, and the price we agree is the price you pay — there are no hidden charges added later. Give us the details and we will confirm your fixed price straight away.
