Car.co.uk gave me a reasonable price
Car.co.uk gave me a reasonable price to scrap my car, all the booking online was straightforward and they were able to collect it the next working day. The driver let me know exactly when he was coming and 2 minutes after he had arrived, the car was gone with no issues. He was very polite and friendly. No complaints :)

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.

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.

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.

What happens after we collect your scrap car in Rugby?
A member of our team will arrive at your address to collect your vehicle on the date and time you selected earlier in the process. The first thing they do upon arrival is carry out basic checks to confirm that the paperwork matches the vehicle's actual condition. Following that, they will take your vehicle to a nearby Authorised Treatment Facility for scrapping, while a quick payment is made to you via bank transfer.
At the recycling facility, a technician will evaluate your car further before beginning the environmentally friendly scrapping process. The first stage is depollution, during which all hazardous materials and fluids are drained from the vehicle in accordance with national environmental standards. Following that, a technician will strip your car of all valuable and reusable parts, including the catalytic converter, before the remaining shell is crushed.
