Auction Houses We Cover
Every Major UK Auction House. ALL SITES.
Send us the lot number, the auction site, and your delivery address. We handle the paperwork, timed slot booking, and loading — you just confirm the fixed price and wait for delivery.
BCA — British Car Auctions
The UK's largest vehicle remarketing operation, processing hundreds of thousands of vehicles every year across 20+ sites nationwide. BCA stock is predominantly ex-fleet, manufacturer return, and trade — clean, graded, and documented. MJC collects from every BCA site, including the flagship Blackbushe (GU17), Enfield (EN3), Bedford, Paddock Wood, Peterborough, and all regional centres. Flatbed-only collection, yard protocols followed, timed slots managed, and delivery anywhere across London and the UK.

COPART UK
The UK's leading salvage and total loss auction, running daily sales Monday to Friday across 20 operation centres. Copart stock is predominantly Cat S, Cat N, and insurance write-offs — many lots are non-runners, no-key, or require winch loading. This is exactly the situation where using the wrong transporter causes further damage and voids insurance. MJC carries winch equipment, wheel skates, and soft straps as standard. We know Copart's appointment booking system, their release procedures, and what it takes to get a non-runner off the compound cleanly.

Synetiq / IAA
The UK's leading insurance salvage and vehicle recycling network, now operating as IAA. Stock sourced from insurers, police forces, and fleet operators — frequently Cat S, Cat N, and end-of-life vehicles. MJC collects from Doncaster HQ, Canvey Island, Bilsthorpe (Newark), Gloucester, Hixon, Peterborough, Southampton, Billingham, and Glasgow. Non-runners, no-key, and damaged vehicles are handled correctly as standard.

Manheim UK
Cox Automotive's wholesale remarketing arm — the go-to for dealers sourcing clean, well-documented fleet and nearly-new stock. Trade-only access. MJC collects from Manheim Colchester (Europe's largest single-site auction), Birmingham, Bristol, Leeds, Manchester, Northampton, Shepshed, and all Manheim commercial vehicle centres. Delivery to the dealer forecourt or prep centre is arranged as standard.

JOHN PYE AUCTIONS
Public-access asset and vehicle auctions with three sites inside or on the M25 boundary — Mitcham (CR4), Hayes (UB3), and Erith (DA8) — making John Pye uniquely accessible to London buyers. Stock includes ex-finance, repossessions, Cat S/N, and no-key lots. MJC covers all 21 John Pye compounds nationwide, with same-day collection available from the London sites.

Anglia Car AUCTIONS
Family-run auction house in King's Lynn, Norfolk, with a reputation for classic, vintage, and collector vehicles alongside quality modern used stock. Open to trade and public buyers. Many Anglia lots require beavertail or tilt-slide flatbed collection — a standard drive-away is not appropriate for a pre-war, high-value, or undriven classic. MJC handles Anglia collections with the care and attention the vehicles deserve.

TfL fleet disposal (Maidstone, Queensferry, Newcastle, Belfast) · RAW2K · G3 Vehicle Auctions · Central Car Auctions (Arnold Clark) · City Auction Group · Auction4Cars · SWVA (Holton Heath) · Merthyr Motor Auctions · and any other UK auction site.

Built for the Trade
Dealers & Traders — We Work Differently for You.
If you’re buying regularly at auction — whether that’s a handful of lots a month or dozens every week — the way you need transport to work is fundamentally different to a one-off private buyer. You need reliability, speed, business delivery, and a transport partner who understands auction yard protocols without having to be guided through them every time.
MJC has been doing this long enough to know what a dealer actually needs. We don’t get in your way. We get the vehicles where they need to be, on time, in the condition they left the compound, and with the paperwork to prove it.
For single lots, use the instant quote tool on this page — same pricing, same service, no account needed. For multi-vehicle collections on the same auction day, talk to us directly. That’s where the real value for trade buyers sits.
Buying multiple lots at the same auction? We can dispatch two flatbed trucks with beavertails to the same compound on the same day — up to 4 vehicles in a single run. Multi-lot pricing is not available through the quotation calculator above. WhatsApp or email us with your lot numbers and we’ll put together a trade quote specifically for you.
Up to 4 Vehicles Per Run
Two flatbed trucks with beavertails dispatched to the same compound simultaneously. All lots collected in one run — no second trip, no storage fees accumulating while you wait. The rest of our fleet continues covering London recovery and breakdown as normal.
Trade Account Pricing
Regular buyers get account terms and trade-specific rates that reflect the volume of business. Not the same per-job pricing a one-off private buyer gets. If you're buying consistently from BCA, Copart, Manheim, or SYNETIQ, it's worth a conversation.
Business Delivery as Standard
Dealer forecourt, preparation centre, bodyshop, compound, or storage facility. We understand that trade buyers need vehicles delivered where the work happens — not a home address. Delivery notes, condition confirmation, and photo documentation provided on every job.
Paperwork Across All Lots
Timed slot booking, gate passes, handover documentation, and release confirmation managed across every lot simultaneously. One point of contact, one confirmation, everything handled. You won't be chasing us for updates — we'll be sending them to you.

Why Choose MJC
Most Transporters Are Drivers. We're Mechanics.
The difference matters when the vehicle you’ve bought at auction turns out to be more complicated than the lot description suggested. A non-runner that won’t go into neutral. A Category S that needs careful loading without triggering structural stress. An EV that requires correct Tow Mode engagement before it touches the flatbed.
MJC’s operators are trained mechanics first. When something unexpected arises at the auction yard, we know what we’re looking at — and we know how to handle it without damaging your purchase further.
We’ve also collected from every major auction site in the UK. We know Copart’s appointment booking system. We know BCA’s yard protocols. We’ve done the job hundreds of times.
Flatbed Only — No Exceptions
Soft straps, manufacturer attachment points, no wheel lifts or hook-and-drag on any vehicle we carry.
£1,000,000 GIT Cover
Every auction lot we transport is covered by £1,000,000 Goods in Transit insurance from collection to delivery. High-value auction winds, always in safe hands.
Site Paperwork Handled
Timed slot booking, collection documentation, gate passes, and handover checks — we manage the full collection process on your behalf.
Fixed Price Before We Move
No estimates added upon arrival. The price you agree to is the price you pay. Card, cash, or bank transfer accepted.
5.0 Stars Reviews
194 verified reviews from real jobs. One of London's highest-rated independent recovery and transport operators.
Bought a non-runner at Copart Sandy and was dreading the collection. MJC booked the slot, handled all the paperwork at the yard, and delivered to my garage in South London. Vehicle arrived exactly as it left the site. No drama.
★★★★★ · Copart Sandy Collection · South London
Collected a classic TVR from Anglia Car Auctions in King’s Lynn. The car needed beavertail loading — MJC knew exactly what was needed without being told. Arrived in perfect condition. Will use again for every Anglia purchase.
★★★★★ · Anglia Car Auctions · Classic Vehicle
Used BCA’s own transport twice and had problems both times. Switched to MJC. Fixed quote before they moved, flatbed truck, strapped correctly. Half the price of BCA’s own service for the same route. Obvious choice going forward.

Frequently Asked Questions
BEFORE YOU CALL.
What is what3words, and why is it useful in a breakdown?
what3words is a global location system that divides the world into 3-metre squares, each with a unique three-word address (e.g. ///hush.lifted.along for London Bridge). In a breakdown, this is far more precise than a postcode — which can cover an entire street — and more reliable than a WhatsApp pin, which can drift by up to 50 metres in central London. MJC Auto Recovery uses what3words as its primary dispatch location tool. The same system is used by the UK Police, Fire, and Ambulance services.
How does what3words differ from sharing a live location on WhatsApp?
what3words is a fixed technical address — WhatsApp Live Location is a dynamic social tool. WhatsApp Live Location relies on continuous mobile data and can drift by up to 50 metres in built-up areas or under motorway bridges. A what3words address is fixed: once you read us those three words, that 3-metre square remains the target even if your phone battery dies or your data signal drops entirely.
Do I need a data signal for what3words to work?
No, the official what3words app functions offline using your phone’s built-in GPS. This is a significant advantage over WhatsApp or Google Maps, which require an active data connection to load map tiles. If you are in a “dead zone” or a rural area with poor reception, you can still read your three words to us over a standard voice call.
How does what3words differ from sharing a "Live Location" on WhatsApp?
Precision and reliability. While WhatsApp “Live Location” is useful, it is a social tool that relies on continuous power and data and can “drift” 50+ metres in built-up London areas or under motorway bridges. what3words is a fixed, technical address. Once you give us those three words, that 3-metre square remains the target even if your phone battery dies or your data signal drops out.
How do I find my what3words address if I’m stranded?
Open the free what3words app and wait for the GPS to settle. The app will display your unique 3-word address at the top of the screen (what3words shows you how). Simply read those words to our team, or share them via WhatsApp/SMS. By using this system, you are helping MJC maintain its 35-minute average response time across London and the M25.
Why is what3words the professional choice over a WhatsApp Pin?
It eliminates human error during high-stress situations. Digital “pins” can be accidentally dropped in the wrong place if you scroll the map. what3words provides a unique, spoken address that our dispatchers and operators can verify immediately. It is the same system used by the Police, Fire, and Ambulance services, and MJC adopts the same high standard to ensure a faster, safer rescue.
Can you find me on the M25 or a "Smart Motorway" using what3words?
Yes, this is where the technology is vital for your safety. Motorway marker posts are often obscured by rain or darkness. what3words allows us to see exactly which side of the carriageway you are on and which junction is closest. This prevents our recovery truck from heading in the wrong direction – a mistake that can cost an hour of time in a dangerous live-lane environment.
What do I do if the what3words button doesn't work?
First, check that you have allowed location access — tap the padlock icon in your browser’s address bar and set Location to Allow, then try again. Also, check for any other location privacy settings you may have switched on for your device. If you still have difficulty, call us directly on 07522 964 566 and describe your surroundings. Our operators are experienced at locating vehicles using landmarks, road signs, and junction numbers when technology isn’t cooperating.
