RouteRelay is a UK vehicle logistics platform for the motor trade. Dealers book vehicle movements at a fixed, up-front price; verified drivers and fleet operators carry them out; and every job gets status tracking plus photo proof at collection and delivery. No bidding, no quote chasing, no WhatsApp threads.
Most dealer vehicle movements still run on phone calls, Facebook groups and WhatsApp: a dealer posts a job, waits for replies, picks a driver on gut feel, then hopes for updates until the car turns up. When something goes wrong — a late collection, a new scuff on the bumper — there is rarely any evidence either way.
RouteRelay replaces that with a controlled workflow. A movement is booked with a fixed price, assigned to a verified driver or transport company, tracked through each status, and evidenced with photos, damage notes and timestamps at both ends. Everyone involved sees the same job record.
Branch-to-branch transfers, auction collections, part-exchange pickups and customer deliveries all follow the same pattern on RouteRelay: enter the postcodes, vehicle and movement type, get one fixed price, book, and follow the movement through to delivery with proof attached.
Roadworthy vehicles can be driven on trade plates — usually the economical option for a single car. Non-runners, damaged vehicles, unregistered stock and high-value cars go on a transporter, recovery truck or enclosed trailer. RouteRelay treats these as distinct movement types with their own requirements, so a non-runner is never quietly booked as a driven job.
Every job carries a live status — from booking through driver assignment, collection and delivery — so a dealer can answer “where is that car?” without ringing anyone. Status changes are recorded on the job’s audit trail.
Photo proof at collection and delivery is mandatory, not optional. Condition is recorded before the vehicle moves and again at handover, with timestamps and damage notes. That evidence protects the dealer, the driver and the fleet operator equally.
RouteRelay quotes a single fixed price before you book, based on distance, movement type, urgency and vehicle condition. There is no reverse auction and no race to the bottom that rewards whoever cuts the most corners.
Software that manages the movement of vehicles between locations end to end: booking, pricing, driver assignment, status tracking and proof of collection and delivery. It replaces the phone calls, spreadsheets and message groups that vehicle movements are usually run on.
UK motor trade businesses: car dealers and dealer groups who need vehicles moved, and the drivers, transport companies and fleet operators who move them. It is a trade platform, not a consumer courier service.
No. Quote sites broadcast your job and wait for bids. RouteRelay quotes one fixed price up front based on distance, movement type, urgency and vehicle condition — no bidding round and no fees added later.
Yes. Trade plate (driven) movements for roadworthy vehicles, and transporter, recovery and enclosed movements for non-runners, damaged vehicles and cars that should not be driven.
Photo proof at collection and at delivery, with damage notes and timestamps, attached to the job record. Both sides of the movement can see the same evidence, which is what settles most condition disputes before they start.
Access is controlled. Dealers, drivers and transport companies are verified — including licence and insurance document checks for drivers — before they can book or accept work.
RouteRelay is onboarding verified dealers, drivers and transport companies in controlled phases. Apply for access and quote any movement before you book.
