Work with the best scrap car companies in Greater Manchester

Scrapping a car—whether it’s an un-roadworthy car, a vehicle with MOT failures, or a flood damaged car—is something most people only do once or twice in their lifetime. It can feel unfamiliar or even stressful—especially when dealing with junk and salvage cars, insurance write-offs, damaged cars, or non-runners, and trying to negotiate prices.

At Car.co.uk, we take the hassle out of the process. Whether you’re scrapping fleet cars, part-exchange cars, or any other type, you’ll receive an instant, competitive quote from our nationwide network of scrap recyclers and vehicle dismantlers. Once you’ve accepted a great price, we’ll arrange a free collection from any location you choose.

When it’s time to say goodbye to your car, our collection driver will be there to assist with completing your DVLA paperwork and provide you with a Certificate of Destruction. This ensures your legal responsibility for the vehicle is fully taken care of. Plus, our scrap partners never haggle—the price you’re offered is the price you get.

Your Car Can Make a Difference

Over the past decade, serious road accidents in Greater Manchester have decreased by 8%. However, the area still experiences a higher than average number of vehicles being written off in collisions, including many insurance write-offs, damaged cars, and non-runners.

At Car.co.uk, we use these written-off vehicles to support local charity projects. From supported living homes and food banks to HMP Academies, the proceeds from your car—whether it’s a junk and salvage car or a flood damaged car—help fund vital services that improve lives and strengthen the community.

Outstanding service A*****

The process was very straightforward, the vehicle was collected on the day agreed - I received a call when the driver was 30 minutes away. The driver 'Darren' was knowledgeable and a complete professional. All inspections carried out, documents sorted and on his pick up in under 30 minutes. The money was processed to my bank very shortly after. Will definitely recommend and would not hesitate using your company again.

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.

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.

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.

First class company

There's a very good reason why this company has such a high trust pilot rating, and it's not because of bots or ai fake reviews!! It's nice to leave a good review for a genuinely well run and professional outfit. Firstly , they offer the best price. Secondly , no sucking in of air or false advertising, put in reg, they give you a price, simple.... The pick up driver Shaun was very polite, concise and to the point. From begining to end a good experience, and a well deserved reputation.

Frequently asked questions

What do I need to provide when my car’s collected?

All our scrap collection partners work in accordance with the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013, which requires they see photo ID from anyone who is scrapping a car – as well as a proof of address if you can’t provide the V5C document with the car. Transparency and trustworthiness are both vitally important to Car.co.uk, so we always work with partners who follow these rules.

How will you pay me?

Although people often hope to scrap their car for cash, it’s actually against the law to pay for scrap with cash. Therefore, your payment will be made either by direct bank transfer or by cheque.

How do I get a refund on tax?

You must tell the DVLA if your car has been scrapped and, when you do, they’ll issue a refund cheque for any full months left on your vehicle tax.

Who will collect my scrap car in Manchester?

We work with a carefully selected network of reputable scrap car breakers and scrap yards throughout the UK. When you book your collection with us, we notify the Manchester collection partners who are closest to you – ensuring you receive the best possible local service.

How soon can you collect my scrap car in Manchester?

When you book your collection with us, you can select a date and time that’s convenient. One of our Manchester scrap car collection partners will then get in touch to confirm their availability with you.

Can I scrap a car without a V5C?

Yes. You can simply notify the DVLA in writing when your car is scrapped, meaning the V5C document is not necessarily needed. Having the V5C log book to hand means your details and the details of the scrapping partner can be completed quickly and easily – but you do not need to order a replacement document before scrapping your car.
