Car Transport in Brighton
Brighton has no motorway of its own — the A23 climbs over the Downs to meet the M23 and M25 near Gatwick. Demand is driven by London-linked relocations, dealer and auction moves, and the city's dense, parking-tight streets, which make transporting a bought car easier than driving it in. Our car transport network covers the whole Brighton area with verified carriers.

Car Transport FAQ — Brighton
- How much is car transport from Brighton to London?
- Brighton to London is around 55 miles up the A23 and M23 and typically costs £150 to £280 depending on the car and your date flexibility. It's a busy corridor, so comparing quotes usually finds a good price.
- Is Brighton's lack of a motorway a problem?
- No. The A23 to the M23 is a fast dual carriageway for most of its length and carriers use it constantly. The main planning point is the climb over the Downs, which is routine for transporters.
- Can you collect from central Brighton?
- Yes, though the city's tight, busy streets and parking restrictions mean the carrier may arrange a nearby handover point for the largest transporters. Tell them the exact address so they can plan access.
- Are cars insured during transport in Brighton?
- Yes. Every verified carrier on TransportQuoteCompare carries goods-in-transit insurance covering your car during loading, transit, and unloading, and we check insurance certificates before a carrier can quote.
