Highly recommend - 10/10 service
Whole process was really easy and completely fuss free from start to finish. Entered my postcode and registration online and was given a price straight away without having to sign up to anything. 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. Really clear information was given about the collection process via email. Collection day arrived and the guy who came was really friendly. Quick check of the car, loaded onto the truck and received the money within minutes. I would highly recommend this company as it was so easy, no hidden terms and conditions and an all round great experience.

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.

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.

Highly recommended !!
Car.co.uk offered the best price by far out of all the sites I had got quotes from. The whole process was really easy to arrange and sort out a collection. I had a few enquiries and the different guys that I spoke to at customer enquiries was really friendly and helpful. I asked for an early/ first pick up and was told they would do their best. The night before I received a text asking if a 6:30am pick up would be possible. I agreed. Earlier the better for me. The morning of the pick up I had a call from the driver (John) who informed me he wasn’t far and sure enough he arrived on the agreed time. When he arrived he was so helpful and really friendly. The car was on the back of the lorry and paperwork sorted all within 15 mins. Can’t recommend these guys enough and I would definitely use again.

Do I need to be present for the collection in Congleton?

You don't have to be present for the collection of your scrap car in Congleton. You can nominate someone over 18 to meet the driver, but they'll need access to the vehicle plus any agreed paperwork, so the handover remains straightforward.

Can I scrap a car without a V5C logbook?
Dropdown Icon

You can scrap a car without a V5C logbook. You'll usually need photo ID, proof of address, and any supporting records such as MOT certificates or service history.

Can I scrap a SORN vehicle in Congleton?
Dropdown Icon

Yes, you can scrap a SORN vehicle in Congleton, and it doesn't need to be taxed or insured for collection. The car mustn't be driven on a public road, so it needs pickup from a private or off-road address.

Do I need to provide keys for my car?
Dropdown Icon

You don't need to provide keys for your car. Missing keys are common, and they won't stop collection or change the quoted price, as the vehicle can still be loaded using specialist equipment.

Will I receive a Certificate of Destruction?

If you request one, we can issue a Certificate of Destruction within seven days of processing. This document is important as it removes the previous owner from the DVLA register, ending further responsibility.

Can I scrap a car with outstanding finance?
Dropdown Icon

All outstanding finance must be settled first, unless the finance company gives consent before the car can be scrapped. Lenders keep a legal interest in the vehicle until the agreement ends, so check with the provider first, and we'll help you understand the next step once clearance is confirmed.

How does scrap car payment work?
Dropdown Icon

Payment is made by bank transfer, not cash, as per the rules set out in Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013, which bans cash payments for scrap vehicles. The quoted price is the price paid on collection, with no last-minute reductions, and funds are sent directly to your bank once the driver has completed the handover checks.

Can I scrap a car with no MOT in Congleton?
Dropdown Icon

You can scrap a car with no MOT in Congleton. MOT status has no effect on the valuation or collection.
