You can help us support local charities

Kent has a poor road safety record. In fact, a recent collaborative survey between The Road Safety Foundation and a major insurance provider found that the county is considered one of the 5 most dangerous UK counties in which to drive a car. Unless this record improves, the region will fail to meet agreed international targets designed to reduce deaths as a result of road traffic accidents.

With a larger than average number of accidents on Kent roads, it’s probably unsurprising to find that the county also sees more cars scrapped than average too. At Car.co.uk, we use cars like these to channel money back into social value programmes in local communities.

When you choose to use our service to get a top price for your scrap car, you’re not just making sure you get a great deal – you’re also helping us to make sure we can keep providing a great deal for good causes around the country.

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 you shouldn’t hesitate to get in touch using our instant messenger service if there’s anything we can help with.

My insurance company need a COD – can you provide one?

Yes. A COD or ‘Certificate of Destruction’, is created when the salvage yard who buys your scrap car in Chatham begins the dismantling process. The COD is actually issued directly to the scrap yard – so they’ll make sure a copy is forwarded to you.

What should I do with the car’s log book?

As the owner or keeper of the car, it’s your responsibility to make sure the DVLA are kept up to date with changes in ownership. To do this, you can complete section 9 of the V5C log book document. You may need some details from the person collecting your car to do this – but don’t worry; they’ll be happy to help.

What happens if I change my mind about the quote to scrap my car in Chatham?

We know people may occasionally have to change their mind and keep their scrap car. If this is the case, please let us know as soon as possible. We’ll try to cancel your collection and make sure you avoid being charged for a wasted journey.

Is my car considered an ELV?

ELV is a car industry term for an ‘End of Life Vehicle’. ELV is used to describe any motor vehicle that can no longer be used - either as a result of wear and tear or accidental damage. If you’re planning to scrap your car, it’s likely that it will be considered an ELV and disposed of accordingly.

Will you pay me before you collect the car?

No, we won’t. The dismantlers we work with that will buy your scrap car in Chatham must ensure that the car is present and was described accurately when they provided a price. Payment will be made promptly after collection.

I’ll need to specify a time for collection around work – is that okay?

Yes, that’s no problem. After accepting your quote, you’ll be able to select a time slot that’s perfect for you. The collection partners who support us with scrap car removal in Chatham will be in touch directly to confirm these details with you.
