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.

Outstanding service A*****
The process was very straightforward, the vehicle was collected on the day agreed - I received a call when the driver was 30 minutes away. The driver 'Darren' was knowledgeable and a complete professional. All inspections carried out, documents sorted and on his pick up in under 30 minutes. The money was processed to my bank very shortly after. Will definitely recommend and would not hesitate using your company again.

What happens after we collect your scrap car in Aldridge?
When your car is collected in Aldridge, the driver will first carry out some quick checks to ensure that the vehicle matches the paperwork provided by you. Once this has all been approved, your vehicle will be towed away to a nearby Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF). Before it arrives here, you will receive payment via bank transfer to your chosen account.
Upon arrival at the ATF, further checks take place before the environmentally friendly scrapping process begins. Stage one is called depollution, which is where skilled technicians drain hazardous materials and fluids from your vehicle, in accordance with environmental standards. Following this, your car will be stripped for all reusable and valuable parts before the final crushing begins. Around 85% of your car will be recycled, while 95% will be reused.
