We’re focused on delivering amazing customer service

Scrapping a car isn’t something people generally do very often – so, when you need to, the process can be time-consuming and stressful.

At Car.co.uk, we recognise this – so we’ve done everything we can to make the process as quick and simple as possible. That commitment to great service means we deliver:

Instant quotes
Free collection
Assistance with paperwork
Prompt payments

What’s more – we’re just a phone call away if you have a question or need help at any stage.

Free collection

Around 80% of cars we collect cannot be safely driven on the road – so, we don’t expect you to. We’ll arrange to recover your car completely free of charge – from anywhere in the wider Nelson area, and regardless of condition.

With Car.co.uk, you don’t have to worry about the expense of delivering your car – and, what’s more, we’ll find a collection time that works perfectly for you.

Your car will support charity donations

Currently, Lancashire is considered one of the more dangerous places in the UK to be a driver – with serious road traffic accident numbers up 8% in recent years. Despite this poor regional picture, Nelson’s road safety has improved significantly over the last decade – with accident numbers dropping by nearly 40%.

As a result – the majority of the cars now scrapped in the area come as a result of MOT failures and general wear and tear.

However your car has come to the end of its life, if you’re hoping to scrap your car in Nelson today, using Car.co.uk will mean you’re directly supporting us to continue our funding of charities and good causes in the North West.

Did you know?

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?

This year, it is anticipated that the charity started by our Founder Steve Jackson OBE, will deliver extra £10m of social value – by easing the strain on taxpayer-funded services. This value will be delivered across food redistribution networks; which have been in even higher demand since Covid-19 impacted our communities, offender rehabilitation schemes, and supported living services.

Making the motor industry work for local communities

How will your car help us to continue our support of UK charities and good causes?

When you recycle your old or damaged vehicle by selling with Car.co.uk, you won't just get the best scrap car prices in Nelson – you also get to know that a portion of our profits from each car we scrap will be used to grow incredible social value projects across the country.

The projects we support include:

Offender employment and rehabilitation schemes
Food banks and school breakfast clubs
Assisted living provisions for vulnerable people

As well as providing much-needed support for the people who directly access these initiatives, the benefits are felt much more widely in local communities – often easing the pressure on taxpayer-funded services.

Directly helping charitable causes

We know you might not ordinarily think about life-changing charity initiatives and the car industry as working together – but we're changing that – and scrapping your old or accident damaged car with our service will help us make this change.

Frequently asked questions

We know that people have lots of questions about scrapping cars – so we’ve covered some answers to common queries here.

Can I keep my private registration if I sell my car?

Yes. Your valuation will not include the personalised registration that’s on the car – so, if you want to keep it, you should remove it using the DVLA’s service before collection. The quickest way to remove the plate from the car is using the dedicated online service – but you can request that the relevant forms are sent to you too. When removed from the car, you’ll be able to keep your number plate for use on another vehicle.

Can I choose a collection time?

Yes. When you scrap your car using Car.co.uk, you’ll be able to pick a collection time that works perfectly for you.

Will you provide a Certificate of Destruction for my insurance company?

Yes, we will. The COD (Certificate of Destruction) is actually created by the DVLA when the scrap yard dismantling your vehicle confirms that the destruction process is taking place. When the agent handling your car’s recycling receive one, they’ll make sure a copy is forwarded to you straight away.

How do I make a SORN?

As long as your car isn’t being used or stored on the road, you’re likely to be entitled to make a ‘SORN’ – or ‘Statutory Off Road Notification’. You can check your eligibility and do this quickly and easily online.

Do you buy commercial vehicles?

Yes. We work with a number of Nelson car scrap dealers and collection partners who are equipped to scrap, recycle and salvage a huge range of vehicles – including those used for commercial purposes.

Does it matter if someone else is with the car on collection day?

No, that’s fine. You’ll need to make sure that the person you wish to be with the vehicle when it’s collected can show our collection driver a form of photo ID (passport or driving licence is fine). It’s worth noting that if you can’t provide the V5C form with the car, you’ll also need to make sure your chosen person can provide a proof of address too.
