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.

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.

What happens after we collect your scrap car in Horley?
Collection can start from any driveway, roadside space or garage in Harley, including Hookwood, Langshott, Westvale Park and Tanyard Meadows. We will arrive at your address at your selected time, and after confirming the collection details and checking that your paperwork matches the vehicle, we will head to an Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF) for scrapping. Before we arrive, payment will be made by bank transfer.
The first stage of the scrapping process at the ATF is called depollution. This is where a team of professional technicians drain your vehicle of all hazardous fluids and materials, in line with national environmental standards. Next, all valuable and reusable parts are extracted and set aside while the remaining shell is crushed and shredded. Our recycling partners recycle at least 85% of your car and reuse up to 95%
