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.

Car.co.uk works hand-in-hand with community projects

Recycling motor vehicles has become an essential part of the way the motor industry operates, aiming to provide a zero-waste policy in the manufacture of new vehicles. Currently, over 95% of the materials from every car we scrap in the UK are recycled to be used in the production of new cars or other areas of manufacture. Glass, steel, aluminium, fabric, and plastic are all easily reclaimed using today’s technologies, being reused to protect the planet’s existing resources.

Car.co.uk are in a position to help with more than just protecting the environment. We also reinvest some of the proceeds we make from the scrapping of each car to invest in local charities and community projects. So, when you sell your car for scrap in Letchworth, you’ll be helping more than just yourself.

Fortunately, Hertfordshire is one of the counties that has maintained a steady road safety record, but unless action is taken, it will still fall well below international targets to half road deaths this century. Until this figure is reduced significantly, there will still be a high amount of vehicle write-offs that will require scrapping and recycling.

Frequently asked questions

Occasionally, our customers run up against an unforeseen issue when scrapping their car. The following are some of the questions we’ve answered to put their minds at ease.

I can’t find my keys. Will you need them to collect my car?

No. Our collection partners can recover a car with no keys - so you’ll always deal with a Norwich scrap car removal service with the appropriate equipment to collect your vehicle.

I’ve seen the term ELV used on your website – what does it mean?

ELV stands for End of Life Vehicle. ELV is the term used to describe any vehicle that can no longer be used or economically repaired - either as a result of wear and tear or damage. End of life vehicles like these are depolluted and recycled at authorised treatment facilities.

Can I still get a quote to scrap my car in Norwich if it has flat tyres?

Yes. Each of the collection partners that support us to scrap cars in Norwich can recover a car that has flat tyres using specialist recovery vehicles.

Will I be paid before the car is collected?

No. The Norwich car scrap yards that we work alongside must check that your car is present and has been accurately described before it is paid for. As long as this is the case, payment will be made promptly after collection.

Please could you give me a set time for collection?

We can. After accepting our quote to scrap your car you can select a time slot that’s right for you. Our collection partner will also aim to call when they’re on their way, giving you time to travel to the car if it’s stored elsewhere.

Can I keep the stereo I’ve added to the car?

Yes, that’s no problem at all. You’re likely to get a slightly better price if you can put the original stereo back in its place – but don’t worry if you can’t, our scrap partners will buy vehicles with missing components.
