Professionals, not strangers

You know who is transporting your vehicle.

Every professional carrier is a business whose SIRET number (French business number) is checked. Their insurance and their entry on the transport register, when provided, are verified and shown on their quote. Before booking, you also see their reviews, completed transports and cancellations. A private individual sharing their travel costs is always marked “Private individual”.

Plateau Libre is not the carrier and does not insure your vehicle: check the cover with the carrier before collection.

Your questions

How are carriers verified?

Every professional carrier is a business whose SIRET, the French company number, is checked (the VAT or company registration number for a company from another country served). Their insurance and transport register entry, when they provide them, are verified and shown on their quote.

Before they are matched for the first time, we check from public company data that their business is active, that its company name matches, that it operates in transport, vehicle recovery or the motor trade and that it is not subject to any insolvency proceedings; if anything needs clarifying, our team reviews their application. They then carry the “SIRET verified” badge. Without this approval, they receive no requests and cannot send quotes.

For a company established in another country served, we check its EU VAT number in VIES, the European VAT database, and, when VIES publishes it, that its company name matches; otherwise, for a Monaco company, or if its country is not covered by VIES (Switzerland, United Kingdom, Andorra), our team reviews its application. Its activity and any insolvency proceedings are not checked. It carries the “Verified company” badge.

On their quote, you see “SIRET verified” and, only if they have provided them, “Liability insurance”, “Goods in transit insurance” and “On the transport register”. From their quote, you can open their profile: what we have verified, their reviews, their completed transports and their cancellations.

A private individual who carries goods during their own journeys has no SIRET: their mobile number is verified with a code sent by text message, they have a profile photo, and their quote always carries the label “Private individual”.

Is my vehicle insured during transport?

Plateau Libre is not the carrier and does not insure your vehicle: check the cover with the carrier before collection.

A carrier may have public liability insurance and goods in transit insurance. When they have provided the certificates, we verify them along with their validity dates, and they are shown on their quote: “Liability insurance”, “Goods in transit insurance”. Otherwise, nothing is shown.

To receive quotes only from insured carriers, tick “I require a professional carrier who invoices” in your request, then choose the insurance you require: liability insurance, goods in transit insurance or both. Only carriers whose SIRET is verified and who have provided these certificates, once verified, receive it. You can also require the Community licence (compulsory for vehicles over 3.5 t): it is then checked against the transport register.

A private individual carrying goods during their journeys has no professional insurance, and their car insurance does not cover the goods they carry: ask them how your item is covered before handing it over.

What if the carrier cancels?

Your request goes straight back out to matching carriers, and the other quotes that are still valid can be booked again.

You then book one of those quotes, or a new one, from your tracking page.

My vehicle doesn’t run. Is that a problem?

No. Say so in the form, along with the handling needed (winch, forklift…). Journeys from carriers who refuse non-running vehicles are excluded; when a carrier hasn’t specified, it is shown as a point to confirm with their quote.

Do I need an account to post a request?

Yes, but only at the end: you fill in the form without an account, then create your account in one step, with Google or with your email address. With Google, the request is published straight away; with your email, it is published as soon as you confirm your address using the link you receive, and then you choose your password.

To come back later, sign in with Google or with your email and password. Forgotten your password? The “Forgotten password?” link on the sign-in page lets you choose a new one.

Do you take wrecks?

No. An end-of-life vehicle destined for scrapping is collected free of charge by the approved network; we will tell you how to contact it.
