How Scrap Car Collection London works

1. Share your car details

Send your registration number, postcode, and basic condition. Let us know if the car starts or if parts are missing.

3. Book a London pickup

Choose a time that suits you. We collect from North London, South London, East London, West London, and nearby boroughs.

2. Receive your quote

We check your details and confirm a price based on current scrap values

4. Collection and handover

Our driver checks the details, collects the vehicle, and moves it for legal scrapping. Payment is sent by bank transfer, as required under UK scrap rules.

✓ MOT failed cars

What affects scrap car prices in London

✓ Vehicle size and weight
✓ Missing parts like wheels, batteries, or catalytic converters
✓ Access at the pickup location
✓ Damage level and parts demand

What to have ready before collection

To keep the process smooth, have these ready:
