The way we see it, one major headache no motorist should have to deal with is a complex and costly car scrapping saga. Accepting your car has reached the end of its usable life is painful enough, without then having to go through the process of paying a small fortune for someone to take it off your hands.

Particularly when all you’re trying to do is the right thing – putting your car back into the system, with the help of a responsible recycling service.

That’s why we’ve taken things back to basics and created a more straightforward car scrapping and recycling service you’ll find anywhere in the region. With Take My Scrap Car, getting rid of any scrap vehicle the right way is as easy as the six simple steps outlined below:

  1. Call for a quote. When ready to get started, simply contact a member of the team at TMSC for a quick quotation on your vehicle. 
  2. Arrange collection. If happy to go ahead, we’ll arrange collection of your scrap vehicle from any location in Norfolk at a convenient time and date to suit your schedule.
  3. Clear out your car. More for your benefit than ours, we recommend going over your car’s interior in the finest possible detail to ensure everything of value is removed.
  4. Await collection. We’ll pay you a visit at the agreed time and date, at which point your car will be collected and transported away for responsible recycling.
  5. Completion of paperwork.  We can also lend a hand with the DVLA admin side of things, ensuring you’ve declared your car SORN and ticked all the legal boxes.
  6. Receive your payment. With the job done, you’ll then receive 100% of the price quoted directly into your bank account – no deductions and no commissions whatsoever.

On top of the above, the only other thing to take care of is cancelling your insurance. Which is something we suggest taking care of early, so as to avoid paying to insure a car that no longer exists!

With most insurers, you’re able to transfer the remainder of your insurance from one car to another car. If not, there should at least be some clause in your contract wherein you can claim back a proportion of the outstanding monies.

Though it’s worth remembering that terms and conditions vary significantly from one insurer to the next – some aren’t quite as happy as others to offer refunds of any kind!
