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 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.

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.

What happens after we collect your scrap car in Hastings?
When we arrive to collect your scrap vehicle, a member of our team will carry out some standard checks to ensure that the paperwork matches the vehicle. Once this has been cleared, we will tow your car to a nearby Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF) for scrapping. At this point, we will pay you via bank transfer.
Upon arrival at the ATF, a skilled technician will evaluate your vehicle further to guide the scrapping and responsible recycling process. The first step is usually depollution, whereby your vehicle is drained of all hazardous materials and fluids, in accordance with environmental standards. Following that, all valuable and reusable parts are extracted from the vehicle and set aside before the remaining shell is crushed.
