Speak directly with our team today for an instant valuation or to check availability on our breaker inventory.
How does cash collection work?
Contact us with your vehicle's make, model, and location. We agree on a price, arrange collection in Bedford or nearby areas, and pay you directly upon recovery.
What paperwork do I need to scrap my car?
You will need the V5C logbook and a form of photo identification. We will guide you through the process and help notify the DVLA properly.
Do you collect cars that do not run?
Yes, we collect MOT failures, non-runners, accident-damaged cars, and write-offs using our recovery equipment.
Where are you based?
We are proudly based in Bedford, United Kingdom, and serve customers across the town and surrounding areas.
How do I get a quote for my vehicle?
Getting a quote is quick and easy. Simply give us a call or reach out through our contact page with a few basic details about your vehicle (such as the make, model, age, and condition). We'll handle the shopping around across our nationwide network to give you the most competitive price possible.
Is vehicle collection really free?
Yes, absolutely! Collection is 100% free of charge. Once you accept your guaranteed quote, we will arrange a convenient time to pick up your vehicle within 48 hours maximum.
Can I scrap a car that's an MOT failure or has been in an accident?
Yes. We specialize in handling vehicles that have failed their MOT or been written off in accidents where repair is no longer an option. We ensure they are recycled responsibly through our network of Authorised Treatment Facilities.
What should I do about my car tax and insurance?
Both your insurance and road tax must remain active right up until the collection agent picks up your vehicle. Do not cancel them early. Once the vehicle is collected and processed (or declared SORN), the DVLA will automatically calculate and issue a refund for any full remaining months of tax.
I have outstanding finance on my vehicle. Can I still scrap it?
We run HPI checks on all vehicles prior to collection to check for active finance. While you are still legally responsible for settling any outstanding balance, the finance must be fully cleared before your vehicle can be scrapped.
Do you sell cars or parts as well?
Yes! Alongside our vehicle collection and breaking services, we offer affordable motor sales and a wide range of reliable car parts for customers across Bedford and the surrounding areas. Feel free to contact us with any specific part requests or availability enquiries.
Do I need to remove my personal belongings before collection?
Yes, please make sure you thoroughly check the car, glove box, boot, and sun visors for any personal items, CDs, sunglasses, or parking passes before the driver arrives. Once the vehicle is taken away, it cannot be retrieved.
Can the collection agent pick up my car if I’m not at home?
As long as the keys and correct paperwork are handed over to a designated representative or left accessible as pre-arranged with our team, you do not necessarily have to be present—though someone must be there to sign the documentation and receive payment.
What happens to the car once it’s collected?
Your vehicle is taken to an Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF), where it goes through a strict, eco-friendly recycling process. Hazardous fluids and materials are safely drained and disposed of, and reusable parts are salvaged before the vehicle shell is safely crushed and recycled.
How do I notify the DVLA that my car has been scrapped?
The collection driver will leave you with a specific slip (the yellow slip) from your V5C logbook. You must send this section off to the DVLA (or complete the transfer online using the reference number) to officially take the vehicle out of your name and clear you of any liability or road tax responsibilities.
What if my car is missing its keys?
Missing keys can sometimes make collection a bit trickier because the vehicle may need to be winched onto a recovery truck. If your car doesn't have keys, just let our team know when you get your quote so we can send the right type of transport vehicle.
Are your quotes subject to change when the driver arrives?
No. Unlike some other services, the price we quote you is fully guaranteed. As long as the vehicle's condition matches the description you provided us, the price the driver pays you will not change.
Can you collect a car that has flat tires, broken steering, or won’t start?
Yes, absolutely! Our collection agents are fully equipped with specialist recovery vehicles (like winches), meaning we can easily collect cars that are non-runners, damaged, or stuck in tight spaces.
