Motorway launches Motorway Move to support dealer logistics

Motorway is launching its new Motorway Move end-to-end transportation solution for purchases through the used car marketplace.

Designed to significantly improve the post-sale experience for dealers, making the process easier, faster, and more consistent, whilst delivering more value, it features two new proprietary technologies, built in-house by Motorway.

The first is Motorway Collect, a vehicle appraisal app, which enables more accurate and thorough vehicle appraisals and will be rolled out to Motorway Move collections.

With Motorway Collect, the driver collecting the vehicle has access to the same vehicle profile from the Motorway daily sale. This enables them to compare the vehicle being collected to the original profile.

Motorway Collect also allows drivers to highlight any additional damage, upload photos directly to the app, and conduct a test drive. The purchasing dealer is able to review the vehicle’s full appraisal in Motorway Pro and make decisions on potential negotiations, if needed. 

When the transportation is complete, proof of delivery is also submitted by the driver in the Motorway Collect app, giving the purchasing dealer full transparency over the condition of their purchased vehicle. 

Designed to drive high quality and consistent appraisals, Motorway Collect provides dealers with peace of mind when outsourcing the collection of their purchases.

Network planning for Motorway Move will be driven by Motorway’s new transport management system, Motorway Dispatch. 

Designed to improve the speed and efficiency of vehicle deliveries, Motorway Dispatch drives faster vehicle collections and deliveries, through optimised planning and workforce management.

The innovative network planning capabilities will see drivers placed in jobs that are most local to them, reducing wasted travel and supporting faster deliveries and less rescheduled jobs.

Motorway Move fees have been reduced by up to 10% when compared to the previous Motorway Transport product, with movements costing from £89.

James Wilson, chief operating officer at Motorway, said: “When purchasing used-car stock with Motorway, our dealer partners need an efficient and effective vehicle transport provider. Transportation has been a pain point for many of our dealers and the wider industry, for a number of reasons, including the quality of appraisals, service levels and, of course, price.

“This is a prime example of Motorway at its best - listening to dealer feedback and using smart technology to deliver a best in class experience. Motorway will now deliver more value than ever to our dealer partners, driving quality, consistent vehicle collections and deliveries.”

Dealers can book vehicle deliveries with Motorway Move on Motorway Pro.
