Book an MOT

We offer MOTs at our Freighter House test centre.

We do not test motorcycles, three wheelers or quadbikes.

You need to book a timeslot for your MOT online, before you arrive at the test centre.

We have regular timeslots Monday to Friday, and will complete your MOT test while you wait in the public reception area.

We do not complete any repairs to vehicles.

To book an MOT, you will need:

to make your booking at least 12 hours before you need the test

If you cancel your MOT less than 24 hours before your test, we will still charge you the full amount.
