Collection and return of your vehicle — driven on trade plates, open transporter or fully enclosed transport — anywhere in London, Surrey or across Europe, with the method, time windows and price confirmed in writing before we collect.
A service booking, an MOT, a detail, a sale, a house move, a car bought two hundred miles away — most of the reasons a car needs to be somewhere else are reasons you would rather not spend a day driving. ACR Automobile collects your vehicle from home, office or storage and delivers it where it needs to be, with the insurance arrangements that apply confirmed to you in writing before we take the keys.
For everyday movements a vetted driver on trade plates is quick and cost-effective. For anything low, rare, freshly painted or simply too valuable to add miles to, we use covered and fully enclosed transport instead. We will tell you which one your car actually needs rather than defaulting to whichever is easier for us.
We deliver to main dealers, independent specialists, bodyshops, detailers, storage facilities, auction houses, ports and private addresses. If the destination is one of our own services — storage, detailing, servicing — the whole chain is handled under one point of contact and one set of updates.
Your confirmation states whether the car will be driven, carried on an open transporter or carried enclosed, along with the collection and return addresses, the agreed time windows, who is authorised to hand the vehicle over and receive it, the price, and whether tolls, parking, congestion charges and waiting time are included. You provide keys and access instructions, and a car that is going to be driven needs to be roadworthy with enough fuel or charge for the journey — tell us about faults, warning lights, immobilisers and any unusual controls before we arrive. Where changes or extra journeys add to the price, we will explain and agree that with you beforehand wherever it is reasonably possible.
Tell us what you need and we’ll come back with a clear, fixed quote — usually the same day.
