Yorkshire’s classic car scene stretches from the auction rooms and dealers of Leeds and Harrogate to restorers and private collectors tucked away in the Dales and on the moors. It is a large county with very different driving conditions in different parts of it, from dual carriageways around the main towns to single-track roads over high ground that can close in bad weather. We collect and deliver on a tilt-bed transporter with an electric winch and wheel straps, one driver door-to-door, whatever the terrain.
Where we collect and deliver in Yorkshire
Typical collection and delivery points across the county include:
- Harrogate and the surrounding auction and dealer trade
- Leeds, including H&H Auctions sale collections
- York and the historic city centre’s tighter streets
- Sheffield and South Yorkshire
- The Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors, including farms and rural storage
- Coastal towns such as Whitby and Scarborough

Moors roads and winter weather in Yorkshire
The main towns — Leeds, York, Harrogate, Sheffield — are well connected by motorway and dual carriageway, and moving a classic car between them is generally straightforward. The picture changes once a job heads up onto the North York Moors or into the higher parts of the Dales, where roads are narrower, steeper and more exposed. Winter weather closes some of these routes altogether, and we plan around forecasts rather than risk a car and trailer on ice or snow at altitude. City-centre collections in York’s older streets sometimes need careful routing to avoid pedestrianised areas and low arches. We plan the exact route before the day, checking bridge heights and any known road closures, so a Yorkshire job is not left guessing when it reaches the outskirts of a historic town centre.
How much does classic car transport in Yorkshire cost?
Local moves within Yorkshire typically start from around £150; longer runs are quoted per mile. Price depends on distance, whether the car is a runner or a non-runner, access at both ends, and whether winter weather affects the route over higher ground. Every quote is all-in, covering fuel, tolls and loading.
