Auction Collection in EC2: What You Get
Every EC2 callout runs on enclosed-care flatbed and loading boards, meaning soft straps and careful, low-angle loading built for delicate or high-value vehicles. Here’s what’s included as standard:
- Copart, BCA & Manheim collection
- Non-runner auction loading
- Doorstep delivery
- Timed collection slots
- Fully insured transit
Inside the EC2 District
The EC2 district takes in Moorgate and Barbican, sitting within City of London. It borders EC1, EC3 and EC4, all of which we cover with the same drivers — so if you’re right on a district boundary, it makes no difference to your ETA.
From EC2 Breakdown to Back on the Road
Here’s the sequence once you dial 07538 716531 from EC2:
- Dial 07538 716531 and describe where you are — the nearest road, Moorgate, anything recognisable in EC2.
- You get a live ETA on the call (about 30–60 minutes for EC2), not a callback queue.
- We load your vehicle using soft straps and a low loading angle — no chassis contact.
- We deliver discreetly to your chosen address, on time and mark-free.
Working Inside the Congestion Zone
Recovering a vehicle around Barbican means working the congestion zone, loading bays and constant traffic. We plan the stop before we arrive, secure the vehicle fast, and move off before Cornhill backs up — routine for the crews that run EC2 and EC1 and EC3.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you collect my car from Copart or BCA?
Yes. We collect auction cars from Copart, BCA, Manheim and other sites and deliver them to EC2, running or not. For EC2 callouts, the dispatcher will confirm any details specific to your street.
What does auction collection cost in EC2?
No — EC2 is standard-rate territory for us, from £60. You get the exact price on the phone before you commit.
Can you get to EC2 quickly at night?
Typically around 30–60 minutes. Because EC2 shares a dispatch patch with EC1, the nearest driver is often already close by.
Will stopping restrictions around Barbican delay the recovery?
They shape how we work, not whether we come. Crews covering EC2 deal with red routes and camera-enforced lanes every shift, so the loading spot is chosen on approach and the vehicle is secured and moving in minutes.
