Scrap your vehicle: Everything you need to know.

Thinking of selling your end-of-life vehicle and have some questions? We’ve got all the answers. 

To speed up the sales process it’s important that you remember to bring all your important documents to our office when selling your vehicle:

  • The vehicle’s V5 registration document showing you as the registered owner
  • Any service history information you have for the car, including your logbook
  • The car manual
  • A valid MOT certificate (where applicable)
  • Your driving licence and counterpart
  • 2 proofs of address – this could include a utility bill or tax letter, issued within the last three months
  • A debit card, cheque book or statement for the account that will be used for payment
 
You will also need the following items, where applicable:
 
  • Spare keys
  • Locking wheel nut for alloy wheels
  • Detachable radio fascia
  • Radio security code
  • Security code for obtaining replacement keys
 
Strictly speaking, we cannot pay you in cash for your scrap car. Changes to the law in 2013 made it illegal to pay for scrap metal in cash. This means we can only pay you by electronic transfer or cheque. We will pay you by transfer of cheque when we collect your scrap vehicle or you deliver to our scrapyard in Wembley.
We encourage our customers to research all possible options to find the best deal available. At London Metal Recycling, providing excellent customer service is one of our core values. With our vast expertise in processing countless end-of-life vehicles and used car parts each year, we ensure you get a fair and accurate valuation for your vehicle.
The scrap value of your vehicle depends on a few factors, including make, model and year of manufacture. Please fill out our vehicle valuation form and a member of the team will send you a vehicle valuation via email within 24 hours. Alternatively, you can call us for an instant quote on 0208 997 8787 or email us to: info@londonmetalrecycling.co.uk
At London Metal Recycling, we routinely take in vehicles ranging from insurance write-offs, to end-of-life vehicles that will simply cost more to repair than they’re worth, to vehicles that function fine but the owners aren’t keen to use the inconsistent private market. Whatever car you’re selling, the chances are we’ve bought one like it before to be used in our car scrap yard.
