They do what they say they do. Excellent.
I was contacted well in advance regarding the collection of my vehicle. Steve the driver phoned me and asked if he could collect sooner than booked. This was OK with me. When he arrived he was friendly and courteous and because of the advanced notification, gave me time to have everything ready for the handover. The money was transferred to my account within minutes. A great service and one that I would recommend to anyone wanting to dispose of a vehicle.

What happens after we collect your scrap car in Bourne?
On arrival at your address, a member of our team will first check your paperwork and confirm the collection details. Once this has been cleared, we will then load your vehicle and tow it to one of our licensed Authorised Treatment Facilities, while transferring your funds to you by bank transfer. On arrival at the facility, a further assessment will take place before the car is put forward for scrapping.
The first stage of the process is depollution, where technicians drain fluids and remove hazardous materials to help protect the environment. Skilled staff then dismantle the car to identify and remove valuable and reusable parts before the remaining shell goes forward for final treatment. At least 85% of your car is recycled and up to 95% is reused, with any remaining metals crushed and shredded so nothing lingers on site.
Scrap my car in Bourne FAQs
How much is my scrap car worth in Bourne?
The average price paid in Bourne for a scrap car is £263, but that does not mean your quote will be around this price. Your quote will be based on several factors, including your vehicle's weight and the current value of scrap metal.
Do I need to be present for the collection in Bourne?
You don't have to be present for the collection of your scrap car in Bourne. You can nominate another adult to meet the driver instead, but they'll need photo ID, access to the vehicle, and any agreed paperwork, so the handover stays straightforward and secure.
Can I scrap a car without a V5C logbook?
You can scrap a car without a V5C logbook. You'll usually need photo ID, proof of address, and any supporting paperwork such as MOT certificates or service history to help prove ownership.
Can I scrap a car with no MOT in Bourne?
You can scrap a car without an MOT in Bourne. MOT status doesn't affect the scrap value or whether we can collect it, and many older vehicles exposed to year-round damp and rural lane wear become uneconomical to repair, as long as the car is accessible for recovery.
Can I scrap an electric or hybrid car in Bourne?
Yes, we accept electric vehicles, hybrid cars, plug-in hybrids, and mild hybrids in Bourne. Car.co.uk handles all fuel types, including battery electric vehicles, and battery removal or handling forms part of the authorised treatment facility end-of-life process, so disposal is managed safely and compliantly.
What documents do I need to scrap my car in Bourne?
You'll need your V5C logbook to scrap your car in Bourne, along with a photo ID and proof of address. If the logbook is missing, you can usually still proceed, but we'll guide you on which alternative documents are accepted.
Will I receive a Certificate of Destruction?
Yes, if you request one, we issue a Certificate of Destruction within seven days of processing.
Can I scrap a car with outstanding finance?
All outstanding finance must usually be settled first, unless the finance company gives clear consent for the vehicle to be scrapped. Finance providers keep a legal interest in the car until the agreement ends, so we'll advise the next step and help you understand what needs sorting before booking.
Can I scrap a car that is not registered in my name?
You can scrap a car that isn't registered in your name, but conditions apply. The registered keeper should provide written authority where possible, or you'll need to show a legitimate reason for possession, such as a gift, inheritance, or deceased estate, with proof of identity and supporting paperwork like a will, gift letter, or statutory declaration. Car.co.uk can advise before booking.
How do I avoid scrap car scams in Bourne?
To avoid scrap car scams in Bourne, avoid cash-in-hand deals, unlicensed collectors, and last-minute price drops on collection day. Legitimate payments are made by bank transfer, not cash, under the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013. Car.co.uk offers a 4.9/5 Trustpilot rating from 15,000+ reviews.
