Scrap car, recovery & jump start FAQs
Scrapping your car
How do I scrap my car in Guildford?
Call 07340 749962 or send the quote form with your registration and postcode. We confirm a price, collect the car — often the same day — and pay you by bank transfer.
Can you collect my scrap car today?
Yes, we offer same-day collection across Guildford, Surrey and GU, KT and TW postcodes, and we operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Is scrap car collection free?
Yes. Collection is free; the price we quote is what you are paid.
Do you take non-runners, MOT failures and damaged cars?
Yes. Our recovery truck has a winch, so the car does not need to drive or roll.
Payment, paperwork and the DVLA
How will I be paid for my scrap car?
We pay by bank transfer.
Will I get a Certificate of Destruction?
We are licensed, and a Certificate of Destruction can be provided on request.
Can I scrap a car without the V5C logbook?
Often, yes. You will need proof of ownership such as ID and proof of address. See our guide to scrapping a car without a logbook.
How much is my scrap car worth?
It depends on weight, condition, reusable parts and current metal prices. Call 07340 749962 with your registration for a quote.
Recovery and jump starts
Do you offer 24/7 vehicle recovery in Surrey?
Yes. We recover broken-down, accident-damaged and non-starting vehicles day and night on a flatbed truck.
Can you jump start my car at home or work?
Yes. Call with your location and we come to you for a jump start, any time of day or night.
What if a jump start does not work?
We can recover the car to your home or a garage of your choice.
Do you repair cars at the roadside?
No. Our call-outs cover jump starts, recovery and scrap collection; repairs are not carried out.
