How to scrap your car in Tonbridge
It couldn't be easier to get rid of your scrap car in Tonbridgefor free.
- Contact us and let us know the details of your scrap car and arrange a time for us to tow it away.
- We pick up the car together with its logbook at the arranged time. Alternatively, you can send the logbook to us before hand. (Even if you don't have the logbook for the vehicle we will still be able to tow away the scrap car but you will need to let us know before we take the vehicle and you will need to write to the DVLA, informing them of your intention to scrap the car.)
- We give you back section 9 of the logbook along with an intent of destruction certificate.
- You should then send section 9 to the DVLA.
- We mail the remainder of the logbook to the DVLA, make a SORN (let them know that the car is off the road) and tell them that the vehicle can now be de-registered.
- Within about 4 to 6 weeks you should be notified by the DVLA.
What happens to your scrap car?
Once we've towed away your old car for scrap we will remove any parts that can be reused in some way (such as the tyres and the battery). Then we separate out all the parts that can be recycled (the catalytic converter for example). Any fuel remaining in the fuel talk is removed, any hazardous parts are also removed from your scrap car. Only then is the vehicle ready to be crushed.
