Vehicle Transport Kirkcaldy to Falkirk – Ford Transit Recovery Truck Project Transport
Falkirk Recovery recently completed a vehicle transport from Kirkcaldy to Falkirk for the new owner of this Ford Transit recovery truck.
The Transit had been purchased as a project vehicle but was not currently road legal, meaning the new owner couldn't simply drive it home from Kirkcaldy. Instead, Falkirk Recovery was called to collect the vehicle and safely transport it back to the customer's address in Falkirk.
Our 7.5-tonne tilt-and-slide recovery truck was ideal for the job, allowing the Transit recovery truck to be fully loaded, secured and transported without needing to be driven on the public road.
Vehicle Transport from Kirkcaldy to Falkirk
Buying a vehicle away from home doesn't always mean it can be driven back.
Project vehicles, unfinished restorations, vehicles without a current MOT and non-road-legal vehicles often require professional transportation to get them safely to their new owner.
For this job, we travelled from Falkirk to Kirkcaldy in Fife to collect the Ford Transit recovery truck.
Once collected, the Transit was carefully loaded onto our tilt-and-slide truck and secured for the journey back across to Falkirk.
The vehicle was then delivered directly to the new owner's address, where work on the project could begin.
Transporting a Non-Road-Legal Project Vehicle
This Ford Transit highlights an important part of our vehicle transport service that isn't necessarily connected with breakdowns.
The Transit hadn't broken down while travelling. The new owner simply needed a safe and practical way of getting their newly purchased project vehicle from Kirkcaldy back to Falkirk.
Professional vehicle transport can be ideal for:
Newly purchased vehicles
Project cars and vans
Vehicles without an MOT
Non-road-legal vehicles
Restoration projects
Auction purchases
Non-runners
Vehicles awaiting repairs
Classic and specialist vehicles
Cars or vans purchased privately
Rather than taking unnecessary risks trying to drive a vehicle that isn't ready for the road, Falkirk Recovery can collect it and transport it directly to your home, garage, workshop or storage location.
Ford Transit Recovery Truck Transport
Transporting another recovery vehicle certainly made this job a little different from our usual car and van recoveries!
The Transit itself is configured as a recovery truck and will become a project for its new owner.
Our 7.5-tonne tilt-and-slide truck gave us the capability required to transport the vehicle back from Kirkcaldy while keeping it fully off the road during the journey.
For unusual or larger vehicles, it's always important to discuss the vehicle's dimensions, configuration and approximate weight when requesting a transport quote so we can confirm whether it is suitable for our equipment.
Bought a Project Vehicle Away From Home?
We regularly receive enquiries from people who have found the right vehicle but then need to work out how they're going to get it home.
You may have purchased something through a private seller, online marketplace, garage, dealership or auction.
If the vehicle isn't roadworthy or road legal, Falkirk Recovery can potentially collect it on your behalf.
Our vehicle transport from Kirkcaldy to Falkirk on this occasion meant the owner didn't need to arrange temporary insurance, attempt to drive an unfinished project or organise multiple vehicles and drivers.
We simply collected the Transit and delivered it to the requested address.
