Can I scrap my car for cash?
If you’re staring at your old car sitting on the driveway wondering what you can do with it, you’re probably asking yourself if you can scrap it for cash? The answer is, yes, you can and when you use ScrapToday’s car scrapping service in London, Hertfordshire and Essex did you know that you’ll get paid the very same day that your vehicle is scrapped. So, rather than leaving your unwanted, unused car sitting on your driveway, get rid of it today and turn that heap of metal into a nice sum of money instead. Why not see what the current scrap car prices are?
The Scrap Metal Dealer Act
In 2013, the Scrap Metal Dealer Act was introduced. This act made it illegal to buy scrap metal for cash. Before the act came into place, scrap metal dealers were able to buy scrap cars and other scrap vehicles with cash. They’d need to obtain identification from the seller and would have to record the transaction. Of course, it didn’t mean that they’d respect the rules and there were a lot of unlawful transactions taking place. Those transactions were criminal and meant that stolen cars were scrapped and disappeared without a trace. 2013 changed all of that, with the new act. However, there are still unlawful car scrapping services out there so it’s obviously in your best interest to use a reputable, genuine and honest car scrapping service. That’s us ScrapToday, scrapping cars in Hackney, and areas all over North London, Herts and Essex.
Certificate of Destruction
Today, no car scrap yard can purchase your car, motorbike or vehicle for cash. So, if a company offers you cash for your scrap car you should immediately be on guard because it means that they’re operating illegally. For your own security, any car scrapping service must supply you with a COD – that’s a certificate of destruction, issued once your car has been scrapped. The car scrapping service that you choose must also be a licensed ATF scrap yard too. This proves that it’s a legitimate business.
