Making scrap cars work for charities

Hampshire is one of the more dangerous counties in which to be a UK driver. In fact, road safety figures in the region show a 3% increase in serious accident numbers in recent years – well behind the national average.

Despite this, road safety in Bishop’s Stortford is improving – with accidents numbers down nearly 55% over the last decade. This reduction has meant that most scrap cars in the area now come as a result of MOT failures.

Whatever has brought your vehicle to the end of its life, if you’re hoping to scrap your car for cash in Bishop's Stortford, doing it with Car.co.uk instead will mean you help us to have a life-changing impact on local people’s lives.

Frequently asked questions

We’ve answered some common customer questions here. However, if you’ve got a question that’s not on the list, why not try our instant messaging service? We’ll be happy to give you more information in any way we can.

What happens if I can’t be with the car on collection day?

That’s okay. The Scrap Metal Dealers Act (2013) does say that someone must be with the scrap vehicle when it’s collected – but it doesn’t have to be the owner or keeper. If it won’t be you, please make sure your nominated person can show our partner collection driver a form of photo ID. If you can’t provide the V5C with the car – you’ll also need to make sure your nominated person can provide proof of their address too.

Will you be able to help me with my log book?

Yes, we will. Although the log book looks very involved – it’s actually only the yellow section you’ll need to fill out. This section is referred to as the V5C/3 or section 9 – and on it, you should note the date of the transfer and the name and address of the dealer buying your car. Don’t worry if you’re not certain about any part though; our partner collection driver will be happy to help.

Is my car officially an ELV?

If you’re scrapping your car, then chances are it’ll be considered an ELV. An ELV is an ‘End of Life Vehicle’ – one that is no longer suitable for use on UK roads. ELVs have to be handled and recycled by Authorised Treatment Facilities (ATFs) – in accordance with Environment Agency regulations.

Can you buy cars with no keys?

Yes, we can. Missing keys don’t cause a problem for most of our Bishop's Stortford scrap car removal services. If you won’t be able to provide keys with your vehicle – let us know, and we’ll make sure the correct equipment is brought when the car’s recovered.

I’ve seen the term ATF on DVLA paperwork – what does it mean?

ATF stands for ‘Authorised Treatment Facility’ – a scrap yard or dismantler that follows the strict rules and regulations surrounding scrap handling. Only ATFs can process a scrap car in accordance with DVLA requirements – so, we make sure all our partner scrap dealers have this important accreditation.

Will you quote to scrap my car in Bishop's Stortford if the tyres aren’t pumped up?

Yes, we will. Most of our collection partners that support us to scrap cars in Bishop's Stortford can collect a car that has tyres that are flat, damaged or low on tread.
