You can help us to support UK charities

Road traffic accidents in Lanarkshire put a £75million strain on local authorities every year – and although East Kilbride’s road safety record is better than many other Scottish towns and cities, the last 5 years have still seen nearly 500 car crashes on local roads.

At Car.co.uk, we firmly believe that scrap cars should be used to contribute toward local good causes and social initiatives – so that’s exactly what we do. When you choose our service to scrap your car today in East Kilbride, you don’t just get a top price – you also get to know that the on-going funds it helps us to raise will allow us to support some of Scotland’s favourite charities and good causes.

Using scrap cars to create real social value around the UK

An unbeatable deal for your scrap car can also be life-changing for vulnerable people around the country

When we help you to find the best scrap car prices from vehicle recyclers in the East Kilbride area, our unique way of working means we're also providing an incredible service for a number of charities and good causes, both in the UK and abroad.

The social value projects we support include:

Frequently asked questions

We’ve provided answers to some of our most common customer queries here – but don’t hesitate to use our instant messenger service if you’ve got a question that’s not on the list.

How will you value my car?

A vehicle’s scrap price is based on its weight – and the value of any components that can be recovered for recycling purposes. As such, additional upgrades or modifications are unlikely to add to the quote you’re offered.

Will you pay me before collection?

No. The East Kilbride car scrap yards we work with are instructed to check the car before payment. This check is simply to make sure the car is present and has been accurately described when we offered a quote. As long as it has, payment will be made promptly after collection.

Does it matter if someone else is with the car when it’s collected?

No, that’s absolutely fine. If you’re planning to nominate someone else to be with the car, you’ll need to make sure they have proof of ID – and, if you won’t be supplying a V5C log book with the car – proof of their address too. We won’t need to take these documents away – but our collection partner will be required to see them and take a copy to make sure they’re operating within the strict law surrounding scrap metal collection.

What does ATF mean?

ATF is an official term used to describe a scrap yard that has proved it works within the law surrounding the handling of scrap metal and hazardous materials. ATF stands for Authorised Treatment Facility – and the term features on some pieces of official DVLA paperwork.

What will happen if my tyres are flat?

Flat tyres are no problem. The collection partners that support us to scrap cars in East Kilbride can recover cars in virtually any state of disrepair.

Will I get a set collection time when I scrap my car in East Kilbride?

Yes, you will. When you accept your quote, you’ll be able to choose a day and time slot that’s right for you. Our scrap collection partner will be in touch directly to confirm this time and double-check details of the collection.
