Fleet Vehicle Transport for Bristol & Avonmouth Transport Managers
Bristol and Avonmouth are the South West's logistics backbone. Avonmouth Docks handles 5 million tonnes of cargo a year, the M5/M4 interchange is one of the busiest in the country, and the Severnside distribution parks house dozens of fleet operators. If you're a transport manager in this corridor, you know the maths: sending two staff to collect a vehicle costs you wages, fuel, and lost productivity on their core routes. VehicleMove does the same collection for a fixed price — usually less than your internal cost, and your people stay on the job.
Cost Comparison: Your Drivers vs VehicleMove
Based on a typical 150-mile vehicle delivery — your fleet versus our fixed-price service
Avonmouth & Portbury Docks
Regular collections from the dock estate — St Andrews Road, Smoke Lane, Chittening. We know the security gates, weighbridge procedures, and peak times.
Severnside Distribution Parks
Central Park, Western Approach, Severn Road — rapid access from the M49. We can collect vehicles while your drivers stay on delivery runs.
M4/M5 Interchange
Almondsbury interchange is the busiest in the region. Our Exeter base means we're already west of the worst congestion — we come to you, not through it.
Fleet Operator Savings
Your two employees cost roughly £28/hour plus fuel. A 160-mile round trip costs you ~£470. Our price: around £370. Your staff stay productive.
