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.

Excellent service from start to finish

Excellent service from start to finish. Selected the exact day I wanted the vehicle picking up. Had a message on day of collection saying the drivers name and that he was on his way. Within no time he was here and very friendly and professional. Car was loaded and within 2 minutes of paperwork completed the money was in my account.

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 :)

Quick Service and Instant Payment

I recently used a car scrapping service and was really impressed with how quick and straightforward the whole process was. From the moment I contacted them, everything was handled professionally. They arranged collection at a time that suited me, and the driver was polite and efficient. What really stood out was how quickly they transferred the payment — the money went straight into my bank account immediately after the car was collected. There was no hassle, no hidden fees, and everything was exactly as promised. If you’re looking for a smooth, no-stress way to scrap your car and get paid on the spot, I’d definitely recommend this service.

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.

Highly recommend - 10/10 service

Whole process was really easy and completely fuss free from start to finish. Entered my postcode and registration online and was given a price straight away without having to sign up to anything. The price offered was better than anywhere else. Selected a date and time that suited me for collection and booked in a matter of minutes. Really clear information was given about the collection process via email. Collection day arrived and the guy who came was really friendly. Quick check of the car, loaded onto the truck and received the money within minutes. I would highly recommend this company as it was so easy, no hidden terms and conditions and an all round great experience.

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.
