FAQ Section
Q Can I get the cash for my car right away?
British rules do not allow the use of cash in our industry, so cash payments upon collection are not possible. Some collectors may offer a cheque if asked, but most customers prefer a safe 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 Durham, UK. 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 collaborate with authorised metal scrap merchants who comply with all UK regulations, including the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013. Your car is secure with our proficient professionals.
