How do I get my car scrapped if it doesn't move?
It's possible to scrap a car that cannot physically move, including those without tyres and wheels. Scrap yards and vehicle recycling services often have the equipment and expertise to handle immobile vehicles, whether missing parts or in non-drivable condition. They can arrange for the collection and towing of the car, so you don't need to worry about its mobility.
Our vehicle recovery fleet will come to you, collect your car, and remove it so we can scrap it for you. We don't charge for that service either; it's free.
Scrapping your car is straightforward: obtain a quote from a scrap buyer, schedule a pickup, and sign over your vehicle. On the designated day, be prepared with essential documents like your photo ID and V5C logbook. A pickup truck will arrive to collect your car, and after completing the necessary paperwork, you can say goodbye to your vehicle as it's transported for scrap.
You can scrap a car with a flat tyre. Most collectors can tow or load the vehicle onto a recovery truck or transporter, even if it has flat tires or can still roll a bit. This is typically done using a winch or by pushing the car onto the truck.
Scrapping a car without wheels can complicate the collection process, as it may require specialized equipment like a Hiab crane, which not all scrap collectors possess. This limitation could make it challenging to find a willing buyer, and even if you do, the additional costs associated with the complex pickup may significantly reduce the price offered for the vehicle.
