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.

A Top-Tier Car Selling Experience

I just sold my car with Car.co.uk and I have to say, the whole process was incredibly smooth. I got an online quote, and everything went exactly as they said it would. The collection was scheduled at my house, which was super convenient. The driver was a true professional—they were not only efficient but also very kind. As soon as the car was collected, the payment landed in my bank account immediately, which was a fantastic surprise. I highly recommend Car.co.uk for anyone looking to sell their car without any hassle.

Very easy transaction.

Very easy transaction. Easy to book, collection person phoned to say exactly what time they were arriving. I just left him to it and collection took around 10 mins including taking photos of my id and the car. Sad to see my car go as its been a really good car but too much wrong with it now. Payment was not immediate, took around an hour and a half. No fuss, no sweat, very easy.

Car.co.uk gave me a reasonable price

Car.co.uk gave me a reasonable price to scrap my car, all the booking online was straightforward and they were able to collect it the next working day. The driver let me know exactly when he was coming and 2 minutes after he had arrived, the car was gone with no issues. He was very polite and friendly. No complaints :)

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.
