Since our social value reporting began in 2015/2016, Car.co.uk's offender rehabilitation programmes, residential support schemes and food redistribution networks have saved taxpayer-funded services £17m. That figure is on track to grow by another £10m through 2018/2019.

Did you know?

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.

Our service provides more than just great prices

We know that scrapping a car isn’t something that people do very often – so, rather than let you struggle with an uncertain process, we handle it all on your behalf. When we do, we also make a commitment to returning the very best scrap car prices in Darwen.

Almost 90% of cars scrapped in the UK cannot legally be driven on the road – so, rather than worrying about how you’ll get your car to a scrap yard, we’ll pick it up from you – no matter what condition it’s in or where it is.

After collection, we’ll even help to make sure all your DVLA paperwork is filled in – and ensure you get a prompt payment for your vehicle. There really is no quicker or simpler way to deal with a scrap car.

Your car will help fund social value programmes

When you use Car.co.uk to find excellent scrap dealers in Darwen, you’re directly supporting our backing of social value programmes across the UK – and it’s our unique way of working that makes this possible.

Road safety around Darwen is improving significantly. 10 years ago, the town witnessed 62 road traffic accidents during a 12-month period – but, last year, that figure was reduced to just 29. As a result, most cars around the town are scrapped because they’ve failed their MOT or are suffering with general wear and tear.

It’s cars like this that we use to make a huge difference to people’s lives. When you scrap your car with Car.co.uk, we’re able to make significant contributions to food redistribution projects, supported living schemes, and offender rehabilitation programmes – both here in the North West – and more widely around the UK.

How do scrap cars help us change people's lives?

At Car.co.uk, we transform scrap cars into funding for social value projects

Scrap cars and charity work might not be two things you think go hand-in-hand – but, at Car.co.uk, we're trying to change that.

When you choose our service to recycle your vehicle and find scrap car buyers in Darwen – you don't just get an amazing price – you also get to know that you're directly supporting a number of social value initiatives around the country.

A portion of the profit that your car generates will go towards running:

HMP Academies
Food redistribution networks
Assisted living services

As well as the people who are directly supported by these initiatives, the positive impact they have on communities spreads far and wide – reducing crime rates, easing the strain on the emergency services, and allowing tax money to be channelled to the areas in which it's most urgently needed.

Directly helping charities and promoting positive change

Your car might have reached the end of its life on the road – but it still has a lot to offer for charities and good causes in the UK and beyond.

Frequently asked questions

We’ve covered some of our most frequently asked questions here, but if there’s anything we’ve missed; don’t hesitate to ask our experts via our online messaging service.

Will I be paid after collection?

Yes, you will. We ask our collection partners to check that each car has been accurately described when we issued a quote. Payment will follow thereafter, in line with our individual partner’s payment terms.

Will I lose my personal number plate if I scrap my car?

No, absolutely not. If you’d like to keep your registration, you can do so quickly and easily by using the DVLA’s registration removal service. When officially removed from your current car, you’ll be able to transfer the number plate to another vehicle – or hold it on an official retention certificate for use in the future. It’s important to make sure this process is completed before your car is collected.

Does it matter if it’s not the owner with the car when it’s picked up?

That’s fine. We do require that someone is with the car when it’s collected – but it doesn’t have to be the owner or keeper. We ask that the person who’ll deal with our collection partner has a form of photo ID (a driving licence or passport is ideal) to prove their identity. If you will not be providing a V5C log book, your chosen representative will also need to show a utility bill that they’ve received in the last 3 months.

Can you guarantee that the price you’ve offered is the price I’ll get?

Yes. Our collection partners in Darwen are all instructed to inspect a car before collection. Assuming it has been described accurately when we provided a quote, we guarantee to pay the quoted amount.

Do you buy LGVs, HGVs, and vans?

Yes, we do. The network of collection partners who provide scrap car removal in the Darwen will provide quotes and collection for a variety of commercial vehicles.

Will you still offer a quote to scrap my car in Darwen if there’s no air in the tyres?

Yes, we will. Our collection partners who buy scrap cars in The Darwen can recover a car that has flat tyres. If the tyres on your vehicle are not inflated, please let our collection partners know, that way, they can make sure the correct recovery equipment is brought.
