PURCHASES • SALES • COLLECTION & DELIVERY

Bought a Car Privately? We Can Collect It for You

If you have bought a vehicle from a private seller, dealer, Facebook Marketplace, eBay or another sales platform, you do not necessarily need to travel to collect it yourself.

BZ Recovery can arrange vehicle collection from the seller and deliver the car, van or other suitable vehicle directly to your home, garage, business or another agreed destination.

This can be particularly useful when a vehicle has no current MOT, is not roadworthy, does not run, is located a long distance away or you simply want a dedicated transporter to complete the movement.
