Outstanding prices and great customer service

Searching for your nearest Volkswagen scrap yard? Hoping to compare prices against another Volkswagen scrap car quote you’ve received? Or are you just wondering how much you can get for scrapping your Volkswagen?

Whatever you need, at Car.co.uk, we can help. We’ve created a network of scrap dealers, and when you request an instant quote, our unique system checks the current price they’re willing to pay for your specific model – and we return that price to you.

Of course, it’s not just prices that set us apart from other scrapping services. We’ve created a process that puts customer service at the heart of what we do. We know that most of the Volkswagens our partners have bought for scrap are not safe to drive on the road – so we’ll pick yours up; totally free of charge and at a time that suits you.

When your VW is ready to leave, we’ll even make sure you’re supported to complete all your paperwork too – so you can be confident that your responsibility for the car is wrapped up when it leaves.

We make recycling Volkswagens help local charities

Volkswagens are some of the UK most popular vehicles. In fact, numbers of VWs on our roads have doubled in the last twenty years – with 3.4 million cars now registered, and nearly 300,000 held off the road with a SORN agreement.

With so many Volkswagens on the road, it’s probably no surprise to find that they’re involved in a higher-than-average number of accidents – with around 15% of accident damaged cars written off by insurers.

At Car.co.uk, cars that have been damaged in accidents like these help us to deliver financial support to charities and good causes around the UK. As well as an amazing price for you, a portion of the profit that your car will help us to generate will be used to fund social value projects in local communities. From supported living homes for people who could otherwise be homeless – to food redistribution networks that are designed to make sure no good food goes to landfill, using Car.co.uk to find Volkswagen scrap dealers makes a real difference to real people’s lives.

What difference can scrap cars make to local communities

A great deal for your scrap BMW car also creates life-changing charity donations.

At Car.co.uk, we’re proud to support a large number of charities and good causes in the UK and abroad – and your scrap car quote will help us to continue these important contributions.

As well as being positive for the environment, recycling your old or damaged car with Car.co.uk means we can:

  • Fund HMP training academies
  • Support assisted living schemes
  • Help to grow food redistribution networks

Social value projects like these don’t just positively impact the people who access them – their effect can be felt much more widely – not least by reducing the strain on the emergency services, local healthcare provisions, and wider social care services – all of which are often close to breaking point.

Directly helping charitable causes by scrapping your car

Providing social value for charities and good causes

Scrapping your car might not feel like something that could make a life-saving change to a person’s life – or food for a child who might otherwise go to bed hungry – but when you do it with Car.co.uk, this is exactly the kind of work you’re helping to deliver.

Frequently asked questions

We understand that our scrap customers usually have one or two questions about the process. We’ve covered a few queries here – but you’re welcome to get in touch using our instant messenger service if you have any others.

Yes. The Volkswagen scrap dealers we work with all have the means to move larger vehicles – including long wheelbase vans.

To declare your VW off the road, you’ll need to complete a SORN (Statutory Off-Road Notification) application on the DVLA website. It’s important that you’re aware this means you cannot store or drive your vehicle on a public highway though – so you should read the terms and conditions carefully before you do.

That’s no problem. A Certificate of Destruction is issued by the DVLA when they receive notification from an authorised treatment facility (ATF) that your car has been processed according to their guidelines. Since all our partner scrap yards meet this standard, they will be sent a copy of your COD and they will forward a copy to you.

Yes, you can. Each of our partner dismantlers that collect Volkswagens for scrap have the experience and equipment needed to move a car that’s got flat, illegal, or damaged tyres.

Yes, that’s no problem. When you accept your quote, you’ll be able to choose from a number of collection slots. Simply choose the one that fits around your day.

Our prices are guaranteed – we wouldn’t put you in a position when you’re expected to haggle. As long as the car’s been accurately described when we issued a quote, the price you’ve been offered is the price you’ll be paid.
