Give K9 your G3 lot numbers across the week and we group them into a single backload route with one of our 3,000 drivers, so several vehicles move in one trip rather than several separate ones.
Running Backloads and Volume Buys From G3 Vehicle Auctions
Buyers who take several lots a week from G3 Vehicle Auctions quickly find that booking each collection separately adds cost and admin that a backload avoids. A backload combines more than one vehicle, sometimes from more than one site, onto the same transporter run, and K9 builds these routes as standard for regular buyers.
K9 is not connected to G3; we arrange collection from their sites the same way we do from any other UK location.

What a Backload Actually Saves
A transporter running near-empty on the way back from a delivery is wasted capacity. A backload fills that space with your next lot instead, and because the driver was already covering that stretch of road, the price you are quoted usually reflects it. This is different from a fixed-rate courier service, where the price is the same regardless of what else is moving on the same route that day; the individual pricing lets the saving be passed on directly to you.
Matching Loads to Vehicle Type
Not every vehicle sits well alongside another on the same transporter; a run of small hatchbacks combines easily, while a mix of larger commercial vehicles and cars needs more thought about loading order and trailer space. Tell K9 what you have bought across the week, including size and whether any of it is a non-runner, so the backload is planned around what will actually fit together.
Combining Lots Across the Week
Tell K9 about every G3 lot you win as it happens rather than waiting until the end of the week, and we can build the route as your buying comes in.
- Lots grouped by site and delivery area where the timing allows
- One driver covering several collections in a single day where practical
- A running schedule rather than a fresh booking for every car
Booking Ahead Rather Than on the Day
Backload routes work best with a little notice, since fitting your car into an existing run depends on timing that a same-day request cannot always match. A day or two’s warning gives us more options and usually a better price. Regular G3 buyers often let K9 know their typical buying days in advance, which means a route can sometimes be pencilled in before the final lot numbers are even confirmed.
Keeping Volume Simple on Paperwork
Buying several cars in a short space of time means several sets of release paperwork, and it is worth having them organised before the driver arrives at each site. Missing paperwork for even one lot in a multi-car booking can hold up the whole route, so it is worth checking everything is in order the evening before collection.
- A release document ready for every lot, not just the first one collected
- Delivery addresses confirmed in advance if stock is going to different sites
- One point of contact at K9 managing the whole week’s bookings
Cover That Scales With the Load
Every vehicle on a backload is fully insured individually, regardless of how many others share the run. See our trade and dealer transport page for more on buying at volume, the auction transport hub for collection from other UK auction houses, and our Birmingham vehicle transport page if that is where your stock is heading.
Call 07301 118118 with your week’s G3 lots and we will plan the route.

G3 Volume Buyer Questions
What is a backload and how does it save money?
A backload combines more than one vehicle onto a transporter that is already covering that route, rather than sending a separate driver for each car, which is usually reflected in the price quoted.
Can K9 pick up cars from more than one G3 sale in the same trip?
Often, yes, if the timing and locations allow it. Tell us about every lot as it comes in through the week so we can plan the route.
How far in advance should I book a volume collection?
A day or two’s notice gives us more options for combining your lots into an existing run and usually results in a better price than a same-day request.
