At Car.co.uk, we’re absolutely confident that we provide the best scrap prices in the UK – and the friendliest service to go with them.

We realise that people don’t scrap cars very often – so we do everything we can to take any guesswork out of the process. Wondering if you’re using the best scrap dealer? Not sure what paperwork to complete? Worried about haggling?

Scrap cars that make a difference to communities

As well as a commitment to great service, we also make a commitment to local communities in the North West. 
Currently, Cumbria’s poor road safety record costs each local taxpayer around £371 to support the local council and emergencies services around road traffic accidents each year – but at Car.co.uk, we think cars damaged in accidents like these should give something back.

As such, a portion of the profit we make when we handle your scrap car goes to financially support a range of charities and good causes – including food banks, school breakfast clubs, supported living homes, and adult work training programmes. 

A great deal for your car also means some of the nations best-loved charities and social initiatives also get a great deal – scrapping your car with added feelgood factor.

<p>Our founder Steve Jackson OBE helped to establish HMP Academies in 11 prisons across the UK. This training and employment means that <strong>84% of participants</strong> will go on to find a job after release – a significant improvement on the <strong>24% national average.</strong> Meaningful work for people leaving prison helps to reduce re-offending rates and ease the pressure on taxpayer-funded offender management services.</p>

We're bringing social value to the motor industry
Body

You can help us to drive funding towards a huge range of charities and good causes.

There's no doubt that responsibly scrapping your car is good for the environment – but, when you do it with Car.co.uk, you're also helping us to make real changes to local communities.

A portion of the funds that your car helps us to generate will be used to support a number of life-changing projects, including:

  • Food banks and food redistribution networks
  • Supported living services for people who may otherwise be homeless
  • HMP training academies and work placement schemes

By providing financial support for initiatives like these, we also help to ease the pressure on taxpayer funded services up and down the country.

Are missing keys a problem?
Description
No. Our experienced scrap partners are able to move cars in a variety of conditions – including those that cannot be started or accessed because of missing keys. If you can’t provide the keys for your car, please just let us know in advance.
Title
Are your scrap yards all authorised to handle scrap cars for the DVLA?
Description
Yes, they are. Since only authorised treatment facilities can fulfil the DVLA’s requirements, ATFs are the only type of scrap yard we work with.

Absolutely. When you accept a quote, you’ll be offered a number of recovery slots that our partner has available – and you’ll be able to choose one that works around your schedule.

Will you buy my scrap car in Cumbria if the wheels are sold?
Description
Yes. Many of the scrap car dealers we work with in Cumbria can pick up a car that has missing wheels. If your car doesn’t have wheels – or won’t have when it’s collected – please just make sure you let our collection partners know so they can be sure to bring the appropriate equipment to recover your vehicle.

Should I let the DVLA know my car’s off the road?

If your car isn’t going to be taxed, it’s your duty to store it off the road and registered it as SORN (Statutory Off Road Notification). To let the DVLA know this is going to be the case, you can use their handy online service.
