How to sell your car to a breaker’s yard in Newcastle
Why choose our car breakers yard in Newcastle?
Car.co.uk has a large network of car breaker yards in Newcastle, providing drivers with a simple way to get rid of their outdated vehicles. Use our comparison tool to find a quote that matches the value of your car and select a local recycler who will handle your vehicle safely and responsibly. We’ll handle everything else.
After introducing a Clean Air Zone in 2023, Newcastle has seen an uptick in the number of people looking to recycle their old, non-compliant vehicles. Taxis and vans are two of the main vehicles impacted by the daily charge, but a wider shift towards lowering emissions has also had casual commuters reconsidering their current car situation. Our data tells us that 99% of the cars we’ve collected in the area have been fuel-based, with Vauxhall, Ford, Renault, Peugeot and Volkswagen making up the bulk of the various brands we’ve seen. And for each one we’ve been able to offer a competitive valuation.

A city as busy as Newcastle is harder on older cars. An estimated 70,000 vehicles pass over the Tyne bridge on a daily basis, which can cause serious congestion during peak hours and impact the condition of your car. We’ve seen plenty of vehicles come to us with failed MOTs due to worn out tyres and brakes, as well as oil leaks caused by deteriorated seals and gaskets. When those issues begin to build, repairs become more frequent and costly, which is around the time drivers consider turning to a car breaker yard. If you’re tired of your car breaking down every six months, we can help take it off your hands.

Yes, all registered ATF must provide a Certificate of Destruction within seven days of the destruction of your vehicle. This legal document proves that the car has been disposed of and that you are no longer liable for it, letting the DVLA know to remove it from their records.
Yes, all Newcastle car breaker yards are regulated by the UK government as well as Newcastle council. It’s their job to make sure each business has a valid scrap metal licence and the right permits when it comes to handling your car in compliance with the Scrap Metal Dealer’s Act and End-of-Life Vehicles regulations.
At Car.co.uk, we also perform our own checks on a regular basis to ensure each ATF is compliant and responsible.
Once we’ve collected your car, you’ll be sent a direct payment via our secure transfer system. Our licensed driver will then take your vehicle to a car breaker yard where it will be carefully inspected by expert recyclers. They’ll decide the best course of action for your car, which could include patching it up and reselling it or taking it apart to reuse the working components.
If your car is no longer salvageable, it will likely be destroyed, which is when a Certificate of Destruction will be supplied.
