Car Disposal in Portsmouth | How to Arrange a Scrap Car Collection
Arranging a scrap car collection is easier than you might think. At Cash 4 Cars, we buy cars for cash as part of a “Scrap my Car” and “Scrap my Van” service. With a yard in Coulsdon that has an advanced depollution station, shredders and balers, we help you to cash in on the scrap metal value of your end-of-life vehicle (ELV). When you can’t “Sell my Car” or “Sell my Van” to a buyer, we buy it instead.
Scrap car collection services in Portsmouth are part of a wider car disposal and car recycling process in which Cash 4 Cars excels.
We promise to pay you the latest market rates for your ELV either by BACS or with a pre-paid debit card. Walk away with our money in your pocket to spend as you wish, knowing that our company will break an ELV ethically while depolluting it of the fuels, oils and fluids.
Swapping cars for cash in Portsmouth has never been easier.
Evaluate the Vehicle
Make the decision to sell or scrap based on whether or not a vehicle has come to the end of its serviceable lifespan. If maintenance and repair costs exceed the value of the vehicle, or if it has failed the MOT test, been in an accident or is a non-runner, it is likely that “Sell my Car” or “Sell my Van” will not be a viable option.
Thankfully, “Scrap my Car” and “Scrap my Van” will be.
A scrap car collection in Portsmouth can often be made on the day of your initial call, sometimes within the hour. When you swap cars for cash, you will receive a payment based on the worth of salvageable parts, and on the residual scrap metal value of the body panels.
Contact Cash 4 Cars
Car disposal and car recycling are both easy to arrange. You can use our telephone number to contact us, or you can send us an email or a message using WhatsApp. Tell us about the car you want to scrap and its registration plate. We check the markets to find out how much it is worth and offer you a price based on current scrap metal rates.
On accepting our offer, we travel out to Portsmouth to meet you.
We will arrive in a fleet vehicle and load your ELV onto the bed so it can be taken away. As part of our “Scrap my Car” and “Scrap my Van” service, we help you to fill out the DVLA paperwork. Remember to have your registration documents, ID and bank details available.
Receive Payment
You won’t be left waiting for days or weeks to receive payments from Cash 4 Cars. Customers in Portsmouth who exchange cars for cash can receive a bank or card payment on the day of a scrap car collection. Even if you could “Sell my Car” or “Sell my Van” privately, having to arrange meetings with different buyers takes up valuable time.
“Scrap my Car” and “Scrap my Van” payments are immediate.
Once the paperwork is complete and we have driven away with your ELV safely secured to the truck bed, your involvement is over. You can leave the car disposal and car recycling side of the deal to Cash 4 Cars knowing we will depollute and break down your ELV ethically.
What Happens Next?
We travel back from Portsmouth to our yard in Coulsdon on completion of a scrap car collection, where it is cleansed of fuels, fluids and hazardous parts. A “Scrap my Car” or “Scrap my Van” service includes us breaking down your ELV so that working parts can be salvaged for the automotive aftermarket, and scrap metal is shredded and baled so it can be dispatched to buyers who use it in secondary production.
“Sell my Car” and “Sell my Van” services benefit the environment.
We invest heavily into car disposal and car recycling facilities so that our yard can comply with current legislation. It is important to our Portsmouth customers that we have administrative measures in place too. Cash 4 Cars has a scrap dealer’s licence, environmental permit and systems in place to issue the Certificate of Destruction.
This means you can swap cars for cash with complete confidence.
