Private vehicle purchases
Arrange collection from a private seller once the purchase is complete and the seller has authorised release.

Rescue 365 · Independent UK operator network
Arrange a planned car collection or vehicle delivery without driving it yourself. Share the journey and vehicle details, review an upfront quote and request transport through independent operators.
Vehicle transport moves a car or suitable van from a collection point to a chosen destination. It is useful when a journey is planned in advance, rather than an emergency breakdown at the roadside.
Rescue 365 is a web-based booking and dispatch platform, not a fleet owner. We connect your request with independent operators; acceptance depends on their availability, vehicle capacity and equipment.
Give accurate collection and delivery details, including access restrictions and the condition of the vehicle.
Arrange collection from a private seller once the purchase is complete and the seller has authorised release.
Move a purchased car from a dealer to your home or another agreed address, checking opening times and handover arrangements.
Transport a vehicle during a house move or between storage locations without adding road mileage to the vehicle.
Tell us if the car cannot start, roll, steer or brake. Transport depends on safe loading and an operator with the necessary equipment.
Agree a handover with the seller or collection site before booking. Confirm who will release the vehicle, whether keys and documents are available, and who will receive it at the destination.
For pre-booked transport, enter the required collection date and journey details in the existing booking process. A request is not a confirmed collection appointment until it has been accepted and arrangements agreed.
The online quote uses your route, vehicle and transport details. Review the total before confirming; there is no fixed price that fits every collection.
Distance, vehicle size, condition and loading requirements can affect the work involved. Describe these accurately and do not assume a non-running vehicle can be loaded in the same way as a driveable car.
Open the booking journey and enter the collection point, delivery address and requested date.
Provide the vehicle type and explain its condition, keys availability and access restrictions.
Check the upfront total and your journey details before submitting your request.
Once an independent operator accepts, coordinate collection and destination access through the booking.
Submitting a request does not guarantee operator availability or acceptance. More about the booking process.
Prepare release instructions and collection details for an auction purchase.
For an unexpected roadside breakdown rather than a planned move.
