FAQ Section
Q Can I get the cash for my car right away?
UK rules do not allow cash payments in our industry, so giving cash during collection is not an option. Some collectors may offer a cheque if requested, but most customers choose a secure bank transfer, usually on the day of collection.
Q What happens to my car after you collect it?
The car will be collected and taken to an Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF) in Basildon. Depending on its condition, it will either be responsibly recycled or salvaged for reusable parts. Very few parts of an old car are scrapped in the more traditional sense of the word.
Q Which scrap dealers do you work with?
We work only with fully licensed scrap metal traders who follow all UK laws, including the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013. Your car is safe and in capable hands.
