We received a very competitive quote…
We received a very competitive quote from Car.co.uk for my car and from the start they were very efficient with their quote which was easy to understand.

Quick and Convenient Vehicle Scrappage
This was a quick and easy way to scrap our old vehicle. The online evaluation check was useful and produced a similar price to what we expected. It only took a few moments to book a collection date and time, and this was confirmed via text and email. On collection day I was texted further confirmation and called by the driver to inform of his eta. The driver was informative and professional. The purchase was accepted and the payment okayed, with the money transferred immediately. Overall, and great service and would recommend.

What happens after we collect your scrap car in King's Lynn?
When we arrive to scrap your car, the first thing that will happen is that a member of the team will carry out some basic administrative checks to ensure your vehicle matches the paperwork provided by you. If everything is okay, we will then take your vehicle to a licensed Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF), where the scrapping process will take. Before your vehicle arrives here, you will receive prompt payment via bank transfer.
At the ATF, further evaluation will take place before the scrapping process begins. First up is usually depollution, where professional technicians drain your vehicle of all hazardous fluids and materials. Next, technicians will dismantle and strip your car of all reusable and valuable parts before the remaining shell is crushed in accordance with environmental standards.
