The price offered was better than anywhere else. Selected a date and time that suited me for collection and booked in a matter of minutes.

Quick, easy, great service, decent price.
Organised it to be collected, driver (Tony) was in contact throughout the collection day to keep me posted. 10 minutes and I was paid and he was gone! Great service, Tony was very friendly and efficient. Definitely will use this service again in the future, been with WeBuyAnyCar a few times and for convenience, this blows them out of the water (all circumstantial of course). Couldn’t have asked for more, really helpful.

What happens after we collect your scrap car in Enfield?
When the driver arrives at your address to collect your car, van, or truck, they are required to carry out some basic checks to ensure the vehicle matches the information you provided. Once this has been confirmed, your vehicle will then be towed away to a nearby Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF), while payment is made via bank transfer to your chosen account.
Upon arrival at the AFC, a couple of professionals will carry out more checks before depollution begins. This is where your vehicle is drained and stripped of all hazardous materials, in accordance with national environmental standards. Following that, all valuable and reusable parts are taken from the vehicle and set to one side before the remaining shell is crushed on-site.
Scrap my car in Enfield FAQs
How much is my scrap car worth in Enfield?
The average price paid in Enfield for a scrap car is £269, but your final price will depend on your vehicle's weight, condition, make and model, in addition to the current metal prices, and whether it has more salvage value than pure scrap.
Do I need to be present for the collection in Enfield?
You don't have to be present for the collection of your scrap car in Enfield, so if you need to go shopping on Church Street, feel free. You can nominate someone over 18 to meet the driver instead, as long as they have photo ID and access to the vehicle.
Can I scrap a car without a V5C logbook?
Yes, you can scrap a car without a V5C logbook. You'll usually need photo ID, proof of address, and alternative supporting records such as MOT certificates or a full service history.
Can I scrap a car with no MOT in Enfield?
Yes, you can scrap a car with no MOT in Enfield. MOT status doesn't affect the scrap valuation or our ability to collect the vehicle.
How do I avoid scrap car scams in Enfield?
Scrap car scams are a genuine risk in Enfield, so avoid cash-in-hand deals, unlicensed collectors, and last-minute price drops on collection day. Legitimate scrap payments are made by bank transfer, not cash, under the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013. Car.co.uk is a safer route with a 4.9/5 Trustpilot rating from 15,000+ reviews.
What documents do I need to scrap my car in Enfield?

Can I scrap a car with outstanding finance?
No, outstanding finance must be settled first, or the finance company must give clear consent before the vehicle can be scrapped.
Can I scrap a SORN vehicle in Enfield?
Yes, you can scrap a SORN vehicle in Enfield, and it doesn't need to be taxed or insured for collection. A SORN car must not be driven on a public road, so it needs to be collected from a private or off-road address.
