Scrap Cars Houghton
Today’s Houghton on the Hill is a far cry from the village of yesteryear for one rather important reason. Once a town of around 50 residents populating 10 handsome cottages, Houghton on the Hill is now deserted. The last of the houses were demolished around 20 years ago, leaving little behind but the village’s hauntingly beautiful church and a great deal of history. Even today, Houghton on the Hill pulls in visitors from across the region for guided tours of St. Mary’s church – not to mention the peace, quiet and tranquillity you’ll only encounter in a village with no permanent residents whatsoever!
It’s difficult to understand just how important responsible car scrapping and recycling is. Until you take into account the numbers. Every month, the UK as a whole takes tens of thousands of cars and vehicles off the roads permanently. On an annual basis, the total tally is somewhere in the region of one million vehicles. Which when you consider the size of United Kingdom is quite a lot of scrap cars to deal with. The problem being that in many instances, these cars are not dealt with properly at all. In fact, it is estimated that around 10% or more never make it to the recycling plant.
Tens of thousands of vehicles every year, simply allowed to go to waste.
Here at Take My Scrap Car, we believe this to be a tragic waste. This is because on average, at least 80% of what goes into the average vehicle can be recycled or reused in some way. It’s no secret that the United Kingdom as a whole isn’t exactly doing as well as it could be doing in terms of overall recycling. As such, the thought of many thousands of tons of valuable materials being allowed to simply go to waste isn’t particularly reassuring.
While we can’t claim to be single-handedly changing the country, we are nonetheless proud to play our part. Take My Scrap Car is all about responsible, recycling and uniquely rewarding car scrapping in Norfolk. Quite simply, we do all the hard work so you don’t have to – rounding things off with the best possible price paid for every car without exception.
