Typical Cost Examples


To give you a clearer idea of costs, here are typical examples for a 75-mile transport job:


1. Easy Route for a Medium Car:

1. Rate: £2.00 per mile

1. Calculation: 75 miles x £2.00/mile = £150


2. Difficult Route for a Medium Car:

2. Rate: £2.50 per mile

2. Calculation: 75 miles x £2.50/mile = £187.50


3. Medium Car Job Requiring Overnight Stay:

3. Route: Difficult

3. Base Rate: £2.50 per mile

3. Calculation: 75 miles x £2.50/mile = £187.50

3. Additional Overnight Hotel Cost: Approximately £80

3. Total Cost: £187.50 + £80 = £267.50


Factors Affecting Price


Several factors can influence the overall cost, including:


1. Transport Links: Accessibility to the pickup and drop-off locations for the driver can affect pricing.

2. Road Conditions: The type of roads the vehicle must travel on (e.g., country lanes) may increase the risk of damage, which can impact pricing.

3. Job Duration: If a job requires more than one day to complete, additional costs may apply for overnight accommodations for the driver, typically ranging from £60 to £100.


In some cases, drivers can collect a vehicle late today for an early delivery tomorrow while staying at their own home overnight. This arrangement, known as a “carry over,” does not incur any additional charges.
