Support for UK charities

Road safety around London continues to improve – with the last 10 years seeing a 24% decrease in the most serious types of accident around the city. While this is unquestionably positive, Wandsworth still witnesses around 1,150 accidents annually, with many of the vehicles involved so badly damaged that they’re written off and no longer suitable for use on the road.

At Car.co.uk, we help to make the cars damaged in accidents like these return value to the local communities that need it the most. The vehicle recycling work we do helps to fund some of the UK’s favourite good causes and charitable organisations – so, when you scrap your car with us, you’re directly helping to fund a range of social value programmes.

Frequently asked questions

We know scrapping a car isn’t something you’ll do very often – so it’s normal to have some questions. We’ve covered the most common ones here, but if you’ve got a query that’s not on the list – you can contact us using our instant messenger service for a prompt reply.

Will you pay me before you collect the car?

No. It’s important that the collection partner who’s agreed to buy your scrap car in Wandsworth checks that the vehicle is present and has been described accurately before they transfer funds. As such, payment is always made promptly after collection.

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

We understand that people’s circumstances sometimes change – so, if you’d like to cancel a collection, we just ask that you get in touch with us as soon as possible. With enough time, you’ll be able to cancel your collection and avoid you being charged for a wasted journey.

Can you provide the destruction certificate my insurance company need?

Yes, we can. A COD or ‘Certificate of Destruction’, is created when the salvage yard who collects your vehicle begins the dismantling process. As soon as this certificate gets to the scrap yard that’s bought your car, they’ll send a copy on to you.

Can I throw the V5C log book away when my car has been collected?

It’s easier if you don’t. When your car is collected, both you and the collector will need to complete section 9 of the V5C, which must then be sent to the DVLA. This process confirms that you are selling or transferring your vehicle to a dismantler. It is your responsibility to do this, but the collection partner who picks your car up will be happy to assist.

What does the term ELV mean?

‘ELV’ is a car industry term for an ‘End of Life Vehicle’. An ELV is any motor vehicle that can no longer be used safely on the road - either as a result of wear and tear or accidental damage. End of life vehicles are dismantled, depolluted and recycled at authorised treatment facilities.

I need a set time for pick up – is that okay?

Yes, that’s no problem. When you use our app to arrange the collection of your scrap car, you’ll be able to select a time, date, and location that’s perfect for you. The collection partners who support us with scrap cars removal in Wandsworth often collect more than one car each day, so if they’re running late, they’ll always aim to call and keep you informed.
