There are really only two ways of going about the process of choosing a car recycling brand to take your old vehicle off your hands. You can either choose at random, or you can be proactive – believe it or not, there is in fact a big and important difference between the two.

Here at Take My Scrap Car, we’re all about sharing as many important tips as we possibly can with the good people of Norfolk and beyond. That’s why even if you don’t decide to do business with us, we’re still happy to share a few tips and pointers in order to keep you on the straight and narrow.     three-reasons-not-to-pick-a-car-scrapping-service-at-random

So, when the time comes to choose a car recycling brand, here’s a quick look at three reasons why choosing at random really isn’t the way to go…ever:

It Might Be a Pain in the Backside

First of all, it probably goes without saying that you’d like the whole process to be just about as simple as painless as possible, right? Well, the trouble here is that when you choose at random, you stand a rather severe chance of ending up with a provider that turns the whole process into an unmitigated nightmare. Some claim to come to you and then don’t turn up, while others sit idly by and expect you to go to them. In other cases you might be expected to wait in all day regardless of what kinds of plans you might have had – all very common and very possible scenarios you’ll be looking at if and when you make the wrong choice.

By contrast, make the right choice with a little more thought and it can all be a real walk in the park.

You Might End Up Out of Pocket

Next up, it’s all well and good to be offered a great service package on the whole, but what if you’re then expected to pay for the privilege? There will always be those who simply accept the fact that they are being ripped off and are willing to hand their cars over to scrapping services while ending up out of pocket themselves. And even if they promise to pay you for your car, there’s always the chance the fees they add on for taking it away will be way more than they planned to pay you…way more. So when all’s said and done, you’re still worse off for the deal.

You Might End Up in Trouble…Legally

Last but not least, there’s a boring yet wholly important admin side to the scrapping of a car which you must make sure you take care of as required. A good car scrapping service will make sure that the DVLA boxes are ticked in full – one that’s really not bothered about the fines you’ll face might do no such thing. So for your own peace of mind and to avoid unnecessary expense, don’t go falling foul of a dodgy dealer.
