Hi, For me, being "bone-idle", My regular mechanic does a  car pre- ITV service, takes it, brings it back. All done👍, I suppose it depends in how you get on with the regular servicer. Worth asking, V

Do you leave your car in long term parking when you are not in Spain? most parking companies offer a service whereby they take the car to be tested for you. Not as good as V's suggestion but an option if the ITV is running out before you return.

  We are in Los Dolses and two garages in the area offer a precheck and take to-the-test service, so it seems to be quite common.

Rgds,

Where do you leave your car when not in Spain? Anyone can take it for you including a friend if you leave them access to it. 

Some of the parking companies at Alicante airport will do it and include it in the price. The hole in the wall garage by Consum and the Chinese Wok also used to do it but I'm not sure if they still do since the owner died a few years ago.

Failing that, as Villas says, some of the servicing companies will do it although my main dealer in Torrevieja did not include that unless you took the car in for a pre ITV service first but that would mean someone actually in Spain to do it.
