A completely stress-free way to scrap your old car

Since scrapping a car is something people do very infrequently, we’ve tried to create a service that removes all the mystery and uncertainty from the process. 

With Car.co.uk, you won’t have to spend your time calling around scrap car dealers in Bridgend – and you won’t have to worry about trying to transport an old or damaged car to a dismantler. We’ll handle all of this for you.

When you request a quote – our system will return the very best prices we’ve already located for your specific make and model. What’s more, every quote we issue includes a free scrap car collection service from anywhere in the Bridgend area. 

When your car is ready to go, our collection driver will help you to make sure all your paperwork is tied up. From quote to collection, we work hard to make scrapping your car is as simple as possible.

We contribute to community charities

Bridgend’s road safety statistics have improved dramatically during the last decade. 10 years ago, the area’s roads saw around 85 road traffic accidents annually – a figure that has now reduced to just 46 – almost a 50% improvement. 

Unfortunately, roads in the wider Mid Glamorgan region do not follow this impressive trend – with serious accident numbers actually increasing by 13% in recent years. As a result, nearly 25% of all trauma admissions to hospitals in Mid Glamorgan are as a direct result of poor road safety.

Car accidents are never a good thing – but at Car.co.uk, we use part of the proceeds from your old and damaged cars to support local community charities. When you scrap your car using our service, you help us to contribute to this life-saving work.

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

  • 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.

Frequently asked questions
Description
We’ve answered some of our most frequently asked questions here. If you’ve got a question that’s not on the list – get in touch with our expert team using our instant messaging service. They’ll happily answer anything you’d like to ask.
Items
Title
Will you offer scrap car removal in Bridgend if my car tyres are flat?
Description
Yes. Our scrap partners aren’t expecting vehicles in showroom condition – so flat tyres aren’t a problem.
Title
Is my car an ‘ELV’?
Description
If you’re hoping to scrap it, then yes, it’s likely to be an ‘ELV’ (End of Life Vehicle). A car usually becomes an ELV either as a result of accident damage – or because of age-related wear and tear.
Title
Is it okay if my Dad’s with the car when it’s collected – instead of me?
Description
That’s fine. Although scrap laws do state that someone has to be with the car when it’s collected – it doesn’t have to be the owner or registered keeper. Please make sure your nominated person has a form of photo ID with them – and a proof of address if you won’t be supplying a V5C with the car. Our scrap partner won’t need to take these documents away – but they will need to make a quick copy for their records.
Title
Why are some makes and models worth more than others as scrap?
Description
For scrap purposes, the value of a car is based on its weight – and because different cars weigh different amounts, this will often mean the price varies. Don’t worry though – we work with a number of specialists who offer? far more than scrap value for certain makes and models.
Title
Will I be paid after accepting the quote?
Description
No – you’ll be paid after collection. We work this way as it’s important our collection drivers inspect the car before recovering it – just to make sure it was accurately described when we offered a quote.
Title
Do you buy commercial vehicles?
Description
Yes. The network of scrap car buyers we work with in Bridgend are equipped to scrap, recycle and salvage commercial vehicles as well as cars.
