Quick and Convenient Vehicle Scrappage
This was a quick and easy way to scrap our old vehicle. The online evaluation check was useful and produced a similar price to what we expected. It only took a few moments to book a collection date and time, and this was confirmed via text and email. On collection day I was texted further confirmation and called by the driver to inform of his eta. The driver was informative and professional. The purchase was accepted and the payment okayed, with the money transferred immediately. Overall, and great service and would recommend.

We received a very competitive quote…
We received a very competitive quote from Car.co.uk for my car and from the start they were very efficient with their quote which was easy to understand. After accepting their quote they kept me fully informed of the procedure and made it clear and simple. We agreed a collection date and they arrived on time with two polite and helpful driver and assistant and they loaded my car and left very quickly. The agreed price was paid by Car.co.uk and the money was in my Bank before the driver left. I would highly recommend this Company.

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.

What happens after we collect your scrap car in Lancashire?
On scrap car collection day, a member of our team will arrive at your chosen address and take your vehicle to a nearby Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF). Before that happens, a few basic checks are undertaken on your driveway to ensure that all of the paperwork matches the vehicle. While your car, truck or van is en route to the ATF, payment is made to your chosen bank account via bank transfer.
The first stage of the environmentally friendly scrapping process is depollution, whereby all hazardous fluids and materials are drained from the vehicle, in accordance with national environmental standards. Next, skilled technicians will strip your car of all valuable and reusable parts, including the catalytic converter. The final stage sees your vehicle's shell crushed by state-of-the-art equipment.

Do I need to be present for the collection in Lancashire?
No, you don't have to be present for the collection of your scrap car in Lancashire. You can nominate another adult aged 18 or over to meet the driver, so if you have a nice day planned in Lytham, St Annes, don't worry about cancelling.
Can I scrap a car without a V5C logbook?

Do I need to notify the DVLA when I scrap my car?
No, Car.co.uk handles the DVLA notification as part of the Certificate of Destruction process.
Do I need to provide keys for my car?
You don't need to provide keys for your car. Missing keys are common, and they won't prevent collection or change the quoted price.

Can I scrap a car with outstanding finance?
All outstanding finance must be settled first, unless the finance company gives clear consent, in which case the vehicle can be scrapped.
Can I keep my private number plate before scrapping?
You can keep your private number plate before scrapping, but you must apply to retain or transfer it with the DVLA first. Use the DVLA website or a V317 form to move the plate before the Certificate of Destruction is issued.
Which areas of Lancashire do you cover?
Yes, we cover all postcodes within Lancashire, including areas such as the Fylde Coast, Blackpool, and Preston. Free collection is available from any address in the county.
