FAQ Section
Q Can I get the cash for my car right away?
British regulations do not allow cash payments in our sector. Collectors can offer a cheque if needed, but most clients prefer a safe bank transfer 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 Edinburgh, UK. Depending on its condition, it will either be responsibly recycled or salvaged for reusable parts. Very few parts of an old vehicle are scrapped in the more traditional sense of the word.
Q Which scrap dealers do you work with?
We work with approved metal scrap traders who follow all UK rules, including the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013. Your car is safe with our skilled team.
