Did you know?

Since our social value reporting began in 2015/2016, Car.co.uk's offender rehabilitation programmes, residential support schemes and food redistribution networks have saved taxpayer-funded services £17m. That figure is on track to grow by another £10m through 2018/2019.

Did you know?

Our founder Steve Jackson OBE helped to establish HMP Academies in 11 prisons across the UK. This training and employment means that 84% of participants will go on to find a job after release – a significant improvement on the 24% national average. Meaningful work for people leaving prison helps to reduce re-offending rates and ease the pressure on taxpayer-funded offender management services.

We go the extra mile to help those in need

Accidents on Bedfordshire roads cost local authorities in the region of £67m every year. While collision numbers are reducing in the region, the county still sees a huge number of accident-damaged vehicles written off by insurance companies each year.

Whether your car’s been damaged in a crash on local roads – or has simply come to the natural end of its road-going life, selling it through Car.co.uk will see some of the profit that it creates reinvested in good causes and charity projects in local areas.

Each year, we contribute funding that supports a number of social value programmes – from food banks and school breakfast clubs – to supporting living homes and employment training services. When we provide quotes from scrap car yards and dealers in Dunstable – we make sure you get a great deal – and you’re directly helping some of the most vulnerable people around the country.

Using scrap cars to support vulnerable people

A great deal for your scrap car in Dunstable also creates life-changing charity donations.

At Car.co.uk, we're proud to support a large number of charities and good causes in the UK and abroad – and your scrap car quote will help us to continue these important contributions.

As well as being positive for the environment, recycling your old or damaged car with Car.co.uk means we can:

Fund HMP training academies
Support assisted living schemes
Help to grow food redistribution networks

Social value projects like these don't just positively impact the people who access them – their effect can be felt much more widely – not least by reducing the strain on the emergency services, local healthcare provisions, and wider social care services – all of which are often close to breaking point.

Help us to deliver positive change

Scrapping your car might not feel like something that could make a life-saving change to a person's life – or food for a child who might otherwise go to bed hungry – but when you do it with Car.co.uk, this is exactly the kind of work you're helping to deliver.

Frequently asked questions

Scrapping a car isn’t something you’ll do frequently – so our customers tend to have a lot of questions. We’ve listed some here – but if you’ve got a question that’s not on the list, you can browse our full range of FAQs – or get in touch using our instant messenger service.

Do you accept commercial vehicles?

Yes. Our Dunstable scrap dealers and collection partners are equipped to scrap and recycle vans, lorries, tractors, and more.

I’m thinking of changing my mind about the quote I accepted. What do I do next?

If you do decide to change your mind about your quote, we need to know as soon as possible. That way, we can cancel your collection and make sure no one is charged.

Who sends off the V5C log book?

You are responsible for sending the completed slip from the registration document back to the DVLA. Both you and the vehicle collector will need to complete section 9 of the V5C, which confirms the transfer to a motor trader. If you’re not 100% sure of the process, don’t worry, our collection partner will show you exactly what to do and check that all the details are correct.

What is a Certificate of Destruction?

A Certificate of Destruction (COD) is sent to your Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF) by the DVLA when the vehicle scrapping process is complete. Since all of our Car.co.uk scrap partners are registered ATFs, they will make sure a copy of the form is forwarded to you to send on to your insurance company.

How do you know what my car is worth?

The value of a scrap car is decided by weight. However, by working with scrap dealers who specialise in certain makes and models, we can often offer a price that is greater than just scrap value.

Will I receive payment before you collect the car?

No. To make sure each car we quote for has been accurately described, the car will be inspected by the collection partner who picks it up. Payment will follow, promptly after collection.
