Types of Brighton Car Transport Services


There are two main methods of transport for moving cars: transported on a trailer or driven by a professional trade plate driver. Having your vehicle driven is often the cheapest method, however, it involves adding mileage to your car & requires a valid MOT. The Car does not need tax or registration as it can be driven by a ‘trade plate driver’ where a special registration plate is displayed over the vehicle’s existing plates whilst being driven by a professional in Brighton. With trailered Car Transport there are several options. Single Car transporters carry one Car at a time, so tend to be more expensive. Multi-Car transporters can transport several vehicles at a time, which keeps Brighton Car transport costs down & is useful if your Car is not running, is not roadworthy or not legal.

Imagine you are a student moving to Brighton. You will definitely require a reliable Car transport service in Brighton. Our Brighton Car transport partner is the best. If moving a luxury or classic Car, you may prefer a covered or enclosed service. This service is the safest as the Car is protected from the elements & kept unseen. Transporting classic cars can cost more as these trailers tend to only carry one or two Car at once. If moving a vehicle overseas from Brighton, there are car shipping companies who specialise in this & have relationships with large freight liners to transport your Car by sea. They can advise you on the required procedures & shipping documentation, & often will help you complete them. The most secure but most expensive Car shipping option is via a 20ft or 40ft shipping container, although some systems can reduce costs by fitting up to 5 Car in one container. Another cheaper option is ‘roll-on / roll-off’ (‘RORO’), where your vehicle is driven directly onto the vessel & secured.

Couriers on Shiply are able to provide all levels of service and can help pack your items, just ensure you inform them of your needs.

Will My Goods Be Tied Up Securely?

Transport providers will almost always tie up an item in the transport vehicle, as the risk of damage from moving around during transit is high. You should always confirm safety precautions and packing needs with transport providers before accepting a quote.

Can Items Be Taken Upstairs?

Yes, items can be taken upstairs if needed, and can also be assembled. Transport providers on Shiply are happy to provide these services, but you should ensure that you are mentioning these requirements in your listings as it may mean a second person is required for the move.

Can I Travel With My Goods?

Can I Change The Address Of The Delivery?

If you have not yet accepted a quote then you are able to change the address of your listing. Note that editing details of your listing after publishing will result in active quotes being voided, so you will have to wait for new quotes to come in.

Does Someone Have To Be Present For Pickup And Delivery?

In most cases, the car delivery company will require you to be in attendance for the pickup and delivery of the vehicle. This is because there are likely to be release forms that you need to sign, as well as handing over the keys for the car.

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.
