Great service
I recently had my old car collected and I couldn’t be happier with the service. From start to finish, everything was handled smoothly and I was kept informed throughout the whole process. The driver, Roy, was excellent – really friendly, professional, and informative, which made the whole experience easy and stress-free. The payment was transferred instantly upon collection, which was a huge plus. Overall, a fantastic service and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to scrap their car.

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.

What happens after we collect your scrap car in Farnborough?
On the day we come to collect your scrap vehicle, a few basic checks need to be carried out before we can take it away to an Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF). These checks revolve around the paperwork you have already provided for your vehicle and are usually passed without issue. Once your car has been towed away and taken to an ATF, prompt payment is made via bank transfer.
Upon arrival at the recycling facility, a team of skilled professional technicians gets the environmentally friendly scrapping process underway. The first stage of the process is depollution, in which hazardous materials and fluids are removed from the vehicle in accordance with national environmental standards. Following that, the team dismantle the car further and strip it of any reusable and valuable parts before handing the shell over for crushing.
