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.

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.

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.

Scrap my car in Egham FAQs

How much is my scrap car worth in Egham?
Dropdown Icon

The average price for a scrap car in Egham is £266. Your car value depends on weight, condition, make, model, metal rates and reusable parts. Enter your car registration and postcode to see the price for your scrap, compare scrap car prices and decide whether the offer provides the best scrap car deal.

Do I need to be present for the collection in Egham?
Dropdown Icon

No, you do not need to be present when we collect your car in Egham. You may nominate an adult aged 18 or over, provided they have access to the vehicle, photo ID and paperwork. Tell us beforehand so the handover stays secure and stress free without delay.

Can I scrap a car without a V5C logbook?
Dropdown Icon

Yes, you can scrap a car without a V5C logbook. You need photo ID, proof of address and evidence linking you to the vehicle, such as an MOT certificate, receipt or service record. Ownership checks can take longer before collection and payment are arranged without confusion.

Do I need to notify the DVLA when I scrap my car?
Dropdown Icon

No, Car.co.uk handles DVLA notification through the approved Certificate of Destruction process, although you must provide accurate V5C details. When the vehicle is scrapped and its certificate is issued, the previous keeper is removed from the record and responsibility for the car ends.

Do you accept commercial vehicles in Egham?
Dropdown Icon

Yes, we accept vans and light commercial vehicles in Egham, including panel vans, pick-ups and minibuses. The quote process stays the same: enter your registration number and postcode. Many vans receive a higher price than cars because their greater kerb weight generally means more recoverable scrap metal overall.

What documents do I need to scrap my car in Egham?
Dropdown Icon

You need the V5C log book, photo ID and proof of address to scrap your car in Egham. If it is missing, alternative ownership evidence may be accepted after checks. We confirm what to prepare before collection, so the handover remains recorded, compliant and straightforward at your Egham address.

Will I receive a Certificate of Destruction?
Dropdown Icon

Yes, a Certificate of Destruction is issued within seven days when the vehicle is scrapped and eligible. It confirms the car entered the end-of-life process, while DVLA notification removes the previous keeper from the register and ends further responsibility.

Can I scrap a car with outstanding finance?
Dropdown Icon

No, outstanding finance must be settled before the vehicle is scrapped, unless the lender gives written consent. The finance provider retains a legal interest, so contact it for a settlement figure or formal permission first. Once resolved, you can continue with the quote, collection and compliant disposal process without delay.

How does scrap car payment work?
Dropdown Icon

Payment is made by bank transfer, not cash, under the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013. The agreed amount is released on collection, so you know the price before the driver arrives. When vehicle details are accurate, there are no last-minute reductions, hidden deductions or processing delays afterwards.

Can I scrap a car that is not registered in my name?
Dropdown Icon

Yes, you can scrap a car that is not registered in your name, but conditions apply. The registered keeper should provide written authority where possible, or you must show a legitimate reason for possession, such as a gift, inheritance or deceased estate, plus proof of identity and supporting documents like a will, gift letter or statutory declaration. Car.co.uk can advise you before booking.
