BCA Perry Barr Vehicle Collection and Delivery
BCA Perry Barr is on our doorstep. Birmingham is our core coverage area, so collections here are among the quickest jobs we do, and we can often get a vehicle loaded and moving on the day it is released.
City stock: small cars, taxis and worked hard vans
City stock skews small: superminis, ex private hire, and light vans that have earned their money. Vans in particular arrive with worn clutches and tired batteries, so we ask whether the vehicle drove into the compound or was pushed.
Working an urban site inside a city road network
Perry Barr sits on the A34 in north Birmingham, close to the M6 and the Aston Expressway. City traffic is the main constraint rather than distance, so we time collections around the school run and the evening peak on the A34 and Aston Expressway. From here we deliver locally across the West Midlands and nationally up the M6 or down the M40 and M5.
Written for Midlands trade and local buyers
Midlands trade and local buyers
Many buyers here are local and want the car on their pitch the same day, or are running a small fleet and buying replacements as things fail. Both care about turnaround measured in hours. This page is written for people who know the area and want to know when the truck is arriving, not what an auction is.
Timing a collection around city traffic
Once the lot is released, we send a driver who checks the vehicle against the description, photographs it, and loads it on a flatbed. Because Perry Barr is close to our Birmingham base, we can often add a same day collection to an existing route rather than treating it as a standalone job, which keeps the price sensible on short runs.
Tight yards, low clearance and short wheelbase kit
Urban collection is a manoeuvring problem more than a lifting one. Where a yard or delivery street is tight we send a shorter transporter and, if needed, use a spec lift to extract a vehicle from a space a bed cannot reach, then transfer it somewhere sensible.
Local collection, often within hours
Tell us the lot and where it is going in the Midlands. If it is a short hop we will usually get it done the same day.
Local coverage you can hold us to
- Drivers who work the Midlands network daily
- Short transporter available for tight yards and side streets
- Vans and ex private hire vehicles handled as routine
- Same day local delivery where the release allows
What we ask before an urban collection
We need the lot number, the release reference, the buyer name and the destination. If you are delivering to a Birmingham address with restricted parking or a bus lane outside, tell us so the driver can plan a safe unloading spot. Confirm whether keys are with the vehicle or at the office.
Wrap up
An urban site where access and traffic decide the job. Small cars and hard worked vans, local buyers on short timescales, and kit chosen for tight spaces rather than long motorway runs.
