Our founder Steve Jackson OBE helped to establish HMP Academies in 11 prisons across the UK. This training and employment means that 84% of participants will go on to find a job after release – a significant improvement on the 24% national average. Meaningful work for people leaving prison helps to reduce re-offending rates and ease the pressure on taxpayer-funded offender management services.

We provide funding for charities in the UK

Road safety in and around Wellingborough is improving. Last year saw 74 accidents occur on local roads – a 25% improvement compared to the 101 accidents during the same period 10 years previous. Unfortunately, this positive road safety trend is not reflected in the wider Northamptonshire area – with serious accidents up 3% in the region.

Incidents on our roads are never positive – but, at Car.co.uk, we do everything we can to make damaged cars channel something back into local communities.

Whether your car has been damaged in an accident or has simply come to the end of its road-going life, we’ll use part of the profit we generate to provide regular funding for local charities and community initiatives.

Frequently asked questions

We know scrapping a car isn’t something you’ll do very often – so it’s not unusual to have questions. We’ve covered some of the most common ones here, or you can contact us via our instant messaging service if you’d like to talk to us in more detail.

Can you advise me how to keep my personal number plate?

Of course. As long as the car isn’t going to be used again on the road, the first step should be to use the DVLA’s online service to remove the registration mark from the car. When removed, the registration can either be immediately transferred to another suitable vehicle – or held on an official retention certificate until you wish to put it on another car.

Is payment made before or after collection?

After. The dismantlers we work with to buy your scrap car in Wellingborough must ensure that the car is present and was described accurately when you were provided a price. As long as it is, you’ll receive a prompt payment shortly after pickup.

I’ll need a definite collection time – is that possible?

Yes, it is. When you arrange for the collection of your scrap car, you’ll be able to select a time and date that’s most convenient for you. The collection partners who support us with scrap cars removal in Wellingborough will get in touch and confirm your time directly.

My insurance company need a ‘COD’ – can you send that?

Yes, we can. A COD or ‘Certificate of Destruction’, is created by the DVLA when the salvage yard who buys your scrap car in Wellingborough notifies them that the dismantling process has been started. When the COD is received by our partner scrap yard, they’ll make sure a copy is sent on to you straight away.

How do you decide on a value for my vehicle?

Scrap vehicle prices are based on weight. As such, there are many upgrades and modifications that simply do not add any value to the car – however, we’ll always seek quotes from specialist buyers who sometimes pay more for specific makes and models.

What should I do if change my mind about the quote to scrap my car in Wellingborough?

Don’t panic! If you’ve changed your mind – just let us know. We understand that circumstances sometimes change – and by letting us know with as much notice as possible, you’ll be able to cancel any scheduled pickup – without anyone being charged for wasted journeys.
