Trade Plate Collection & Inspection Service
Our Trade Plate Collection & Inspection Service provides a fully compliant, insured, and professional solution for the movement of unregistered or untaxed vehicles. Designed for dealerships, traders, and private clients, we ensure every vehicle is transported safely, efficiently, and with complete transparency.
1. Vehicle Collection & Delivery
We manage end-to-end vehicle logistics, collecting from dealers, auctions, or private sellers and delivering to the designated buyer, garage, or storage facility. Each movement is planned with precision to ensure route efficiency, schedule reliability, and full insurance compliance.
2. Trade Plate Use
All vehicle movements are carried out under valid trade plates, allowing the legal transport of untaxed or unregistered vehicles on public roads. Our operators ensure correct display and logging of plates in full accordance with DVLA and insurance regulations.
3. Basic Vehicle Check Prior to Movement
Before departure, each vehicle undergoes a pre-movement inspection to confirm its roadworthiness for short-distance transport. This includes checks on tyres, lighting, fluid levels, and general condition. The vehicle’s mileage and VIN are also verified to confirm identity and accuracy.
4. Condition Report
A comprehensive photographic condition report is completed prior to movement, capturing all exterior panels, wheels, interior, and engine bay. Any visible damage, warning indicators, or notable defects are recorded to provide a clear, auditable record of the vehicle’s condition.
5. Handover Documentation
All collections and deliveries are supported by signed handover documentation. This includes confirmation of the vehicle’s condition, mileage, and delivery details, ensuring full traceability and accountability throughout the process.
6. Optional Add-ons
We offer a range of optional services to complement your vehicle logistics requirements:
Fuel Top-Up: Ensuring vehicles are ready for test drives or onward transport.
Valet & Cleaning: Professional presentation for delivery or display.
