It’s so easy to get your old scrap car towed away in Oxford.
- Contact us and let us know the details of your scrap car and arrange a time for us to tow it away.
- We collect the vehicle and the logbook at the allotted time. Alternatively, you can send the logbook to us before hand. (If you are not in possession on the logbook for the scrap car, we are still able to tow it away, but you will need to tell us beforehand and you will need to contact the DVLA in writing to let them know you are having the car scrapped.)
- You get an intent of destruction certificate as well as section 9 of the logbook back.
- You mail the section 9 to the DVLA.
- We make a SORN (inform the DVLA that the vehicle is now off the road) and send the DVLA the rest of the logbook so that the car can be de-registered.
- You should receive notification from the DVLA within about 4 to 6 weeks.
What happens to your scrap car?
After we have towed away your scrap car we first remove any parts that may be reused in some way, this commonly includes things such as the tyres and the battery. We then separate out the parts that can be recycled such as the catalytic converter. Any fuel remaining in the fuel talk is removed, any hazardous parts are also removed from your scrap car. Finally, the vehicle is crushed.
