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.

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.

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.

Do I need to be present for the collection in Farnham?

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

Yes, you can scrap a car without a V5C logbook in many cases. We'll usually ask for photo ID, proof of address, and alternative paperwork, such as MOT certificates or a full service history, to help verify ownership.

Which areas of Farnham do you cover?

Car.co.uk handles the DVLA notification as part of the Certificate of Destruction process.

What documents do I need to scrap my car in Farnham?

Can I scrap a car with outstanding finance?
Dropdown Icon

All outstanding finance must be settled first, unless the finance company gives clear consent for the vehicle to be disposed of.

What is the difference between scrapping and salvaging?
Dropdown Icon

Scrapping means the vehicle is dismantled and recycled for its metal value under the ELV directive, while salvaging means it still has enough worth to be resold as a whole vehicle or broken for usable parts. Car.co.uk assesses both routes and chooses the outcome that gives the owner the best return.

How does scrap car payment work?

Payment is made by bank transfer as per the guidance in the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013. Scrap yards that pay in cash should be considered a red flag.
