Working alongside UK charities

Islington roads see around 1,500 road traffic incidents every year. Of those incidents – only 40% involve a car – making Islington one of the safer inner-London boroughs in which to be a driver. As a result, the number of cars written-off or scrapped in the area is lower than virtually all other boroughs.

Across wider London, the team here at Car.co.uk are using scrap cars to create incredible social opportunities. While it’s easy to assume that old cars are just crushed and discarded – we’ve proved that a portion of the profit that they can help to generate means we can offer significant financial backing to some of the UK’s favourite charities.

If you’re planning to scrap your car for cash today in Islington, choosing Car.co.uk instead will mean you’re helping us to deliver this life-changing work.

Frequently asked questions

We’ve covered answers to some of our most common customer queries here – but don’t hesitate to get in touch using our instant messenger service if you have a question that’s not on the list.

I’ve seen the phrase ‘ATF’ used – what does it mean?

An ATF is an ‘Authorised Treatment Facility’ – this is the name that the government, Environment Agency, and DVLA give to scrap yards that meet with the strict regulations surrounding the handling of scrap materials and hazardous waste. Only ATFs can start the official car scrapping process – but, the good news is, all our scrap partners hold ATF approval.

What will happen if I can’t be with the car on collection day?

That’s no problem. To make sure we’re following the law around scrap collections, we do need someone to be with the car – but it doesn’t have to be the registered keeper or owner of the car. If it’s not going to be you, please make sure your nominated person has proof of ID to show our driver – and, if you won’t be supplying a V5C form with the vehicle, a proof of address that’s dated within the last 3 months.

What’s an ELV?

An ELV is an ‘End of Life Vehicle’. ELV is the term used to describe any vehicle which can no longer be used on UK roads. Cars tend to become ELVs either as a result of damage that’s incurred in an accident – or general wear and tear over a number of years.

How much is my scrap car going to be worth?

The price you’ll be quoted for your scrap car will depend on its weight – along with the parts that can be salvaged for recycling purposes. To make sure we get the very best price for your car, we’ll also look for prices from specialists who may be looking for your particular make or model of car.

Do you accept work vans and other commercial vehicles?

Yes, we do. We work with a large number of Islington car scrap dealers and collection partners who are equipped to scrap commercial vehicles – including vans, LGVs and HGVs.

Will you still collection scrap cars from Islington if the wheels are missing?

Yes, we will. The companies we work with to scrap cars in Islington and the surrounding areas are all equipped to move and collect cars that don’t have wheels.
