Callum M Plank Transport

C M Plank Transport is a proudly family-run haulage company, now in its second generation, based in the Scottish Central Belt. Established in 1979, we have reached a significant milestone of over 30 years in business. Our extensive network includes depots in Denny and Doncaster, enabling us to deliver from Scotland to all regions in England on a weekly basis.

Our mission is to provide a comprehensive range of distribution services, focusing on maintaining the highest quality standards through our experienced drivers and exemplary company safety record. We offer an array of services to cater for diverse client needs, managing both small and large orders with the same level of care and dedication. Our speciality lies in the transportation of salvage vehicles across the United Kingdom. Our professional drivers are well-equipped to handle any damaged vehicle, regardless of condition, from cars to commercials. We accommodate single units, part loads, full loads, and even offer a 1-8 car capacity per truck.

In addition to car transport, we also handle plant and machinery movements with our low loader trailer. Our lorries, which are easily identifiable by their striking blue colour and our trading name, traverse the length and breadth of the UK, ensuring a service that is unparalleled.

Our Partners

We have established contracts with SRC Recycling for the collection of all vehicles located in Scotland. Our reliable and efficient service has also earned us the status of recommended hauliers for Copart UK and Bluecycle Scotland depots.

Copart, founded in 1982 by CEO Willis J. Johnson, sells over one million vehicles annually, boasting an inventory of more than 50,000 vehicles available for bidding each day. Bluecycle has been trading since 2000 and is one of the UK's leading online car salvage auction sites, specialising in car salvage, motorcycle, plant, equipment and commercial salvage.

Please note that the majority of cars displayed on these sites have been damaged in some way or another. We strongly advise viewing of the vehicles prior to purchase. Furthermore, all salvage vehicles are "sold as seen" and the photographic images provided on the site are for guidance purposes only. Unless previously arranged, our drivers do not check damage on collection from these sites.

Salvage Terminology

To assist our clients, below is a list of salvage terminology:

• Unrecorded Salvage: These are insurance damaged vehicles, or stolen recovered vehicles that have not been recorded as salvage vehicles with the local department of motor vehicles.
• Accident Damaged/Repairable Salvage: If the assessor decides to declare the vehicle a total loss, it will be placed into one of four categories:
• Category A: Scrap only - The vehicle must be totally destroyed, including all of its parts.
• Category B: Break for spare parts - Spare parts may be re-sold, but the body-shell should be destroyed so that the vehicle cannot be returned to the road.
• Category C: Repairable total loss vehicles where repair costs including VAT exceed the vehicle's pre-accident value.
• Category D: Repairable total loss vehicle where repair costs including VAT do not exceed the vehicle's pre-accident value.

At C M Plank Transport, safety is our top priority, particularly with accident damaged vehicles. We have extensive experience in ensuring all vehicles are securely braced and tied down during transportation.
