Home renovation projects can create unexpected problems for vehicle owners. Driveways may need to be cleared, garages can become inaccessible and construction work may leave nowhere safe to keep a car for several days or weeks.

A professional vehicle transport service can move your car to temporary storage, another property or a secure location while work is completed.

Why cars may need moving during renovation work

Vehicle transport can be useful when:

• A driveway is being resurfaced
• A garage is being converted or rebuilt
• Scaffolding blocks normal vehicle access
• Heavy equipment needs driveway space
• The property is undergoing major building work
• A valuable or classic car needs protection from dust and debris

Driveway resurfacing and vehicle access

New driveways often need time before vehicles can be parked on them again. Depending on the materials and work involved, the car may need to stay somewhere else temporarily.

Transport can move the vehicle before work starts and return it once the driveway is ready.

Protecting vehicles from construction work

Building work can expose vehicles to:

• Dust and debris
• Paint or building materials
• Falling objects
• Restricted access
• Heavy machinery moving around the property

Moving the car away from the work area can reduce the risk of accidental damage.

Where the vehicle can be moved

During renovation, cars are commonly transported to:

• Secure vehicle storage
• A family member’s property
• A second home
• A garage or workshop
• Another parking location arranged by the owner

What information to provide

When booking vehicle transport during home renovation, provide:

• Vehicle make and model
• Collection and delivery postcodes
• Whether the car starts and drives
• When building work is due to begin
• Any access restrictions around the property

Booking before builders or equipment arrive makes collection much easier.

Plan the return journey too

If you know when the work should finish, you can also plan the return transport in advance. This gives you a simple way to move the vehicle out before work begins and bring it back once the property is ready.

Keep your vehicle away from the building site
