If you have an old car that you want to get rid of it can be hard to know exactly how to go about this. Often we have cars that are beyond repair or simply so old that no one will want to buy it, so getting rid of it can be a chore.
If this is the case then you need to look at ways to scrap your car. Sometimes if your car is worth enough you can get money for scrapping your car and other times it is just simply the fact that you can get rid of it without any hassle.
If you look online or even in your local phonebook you will probably find a number of companies in the area that offer to take your car off your hands for scrap. However most of the time with these you need to take to their premises, which is not always possible if the car is not road worthy.
When your car is off the road and cannot be driven then you need to look at scrap car collection. This is when someone comes to your home with equipment to tow away the car and save you the hassle of having to get it to their property.
To find out companies that offer scrap car collection in your area, the quickest way is to look online. If you search for scrap car collection and the name of your town this should return results that are local to you, helping you to find companies that can help.
When you look them up online you can usually enter in the details of the car that you want to scrap and they can let you know if you will get any payment for this. If you decide to go ahead you'll get the money there and then when they come to pick up the car.
It may be worth looking for different quotes to ensure that you get the best price for your car however what you should bear in mind is that you are scraping the car because you cannot sell it so the value of the car is always going to be less.
