We Make Scrapping Your Car Easy

At Car.co.uk, we take the hassle out of scrapping your vehicle. Whether you’re getting rid of an un-roadworthy car, an MOT failure, a non-runner, or a part-exchange car that’s no longer needed, we’ve got you covered. When you search for the best scrap car prices in Birmingham through our service, our expert team does the hard work for you. Using our price comparison tools, we search a trusted network of local dealers to find you the highest possible price — not just the first offer available.

But our service doesn’t stop there. We know that scrapping a car — especially a damaged car, insurance write-off, or flood-damaged vehicle — isn’t something most people do regularly. That’s why we make it simple by arranging free collection at a time that suits you.

Once your vehicle has been picked up, our reliable scrap partner will help you complete all the necessary paperwork and ensure quick payment directly into your bank account. From start to finish, Car.co.uk makes scrapping your junk or salvage car completely stress-free.

We Support UK Charities Through Car Recycling

Birmingham’s A34 is officially one of the most congested roads outside of London, with average rush-hour speeds falling to just 8.2mph. Despite the traffic, the city sees over 2,000 road traffic accidents every year — many of which result in fleet cars, private vehicles, and insurance write-offs being removed from the road.

At Car.co.uk, we take these damaged and unwanted vehicles and help turn them into something positive. A portion of the profit from every car we scrap supports life-changing charity work across the UK. When you scrap your car with us — whether it’s a non-runner, flood-damaged vehicle, or any other type of unwanted vehicle — you're helping fund social value programmes that make a real difference.

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.

We received a very competitive quote…

We received a very competitive quote from Car.co.uk for my car and from the start they were very efficient with their quote which was easy to understand. After accepting their quote they kept me fully informed of the procedure and made it clear and simple. 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.

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.

Highly recommended !!

Car.co.uk offered the best price by far out of all the sites I had got quotes from. The whole process was really easy to arrange and sort out a collection. I had a few enquiries and the different guys that I spoke to at customer enquiries was really friendly and helpful. I asked for an early/ first pick up and was told they would do their best. The night before I received a text asking if a 6:30am pick up would be possible. I agreed. Earlier the better for me. The morning of the pick up I had a call from the driver (John) who informed me he wasn’t far and sure enough he arrived on the agreed time. When he arrived he was so helpful and really friendly. The car was on the back of the lorry and paperwork sorted all within 15 mins. Can’t recommend these guys enough and I would definitely use again.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to be present when the car is collected?

No. We do need someone to be with the car when it’s picked up, but it doesn’t have to be the registered keeper or owner. We ask that your nominated person has a form of photo ID with them that they can show our collection partner – a driving licence or passport is fine. If you cannot supply a V5C document with your car, we also ask that your chosen person is also able to show a utility bill dated that’s dated within the last 3 months.

Will you buy my scrap car in Birmingham if it has flat tyres?

Yes, we will. The scrap collection partners we work with all have the equipment needed to deal with a car that has flat tyres.

What is an ATF?

ATF is short for Authorised Treatment Facility – another name for a vehicle scrapyard, breaker’s yard or dismantler that meets with government approval. An authorised facility follows strict guidelines that ensure vehicles go through a thorough depollution process - before parts are disposed of or recycled.

My circumstances have changed, and I no longer want to scrap my car. Is that okay?

We understand that you may not want to scrap your car, even after accepting a quote. If you change your mind, please let us know, so our collection partners do not make a wasted journey.

Can I be paid for my car before you collect?

Unfortunately, that’s not possible. The car scrap dealers in Birmingham that we work with must ensure the car is present and was described accurately during the quote. Payment will be made promptly after the collection, in line with the scrap car network terms.

What do I do with the V5C document?

The DVLA require section 9 of the V5C document to be returned to them when your car is sold to a trader or dismantler. It’s your responsibility to do this – but the person who collects your vehicle will be happy to help.
