How To Recycle Your Vehicle:
What Do I need to scrap the Vehicle?
Simple, all we need is your vehicle registration document, this is sometimes referred to as a ‘V5’ (the name given to the document by DVLA). If you don’t have this we obviously need to confirm your identity; for this we would require to see photographic identification (photo driving licence or passport) together with a proof of address i.e. a current bill or other form of official correspondence addressed to you.
Can I bring my Vehicle to you?
Yes. We will happily accept your vehicle during our normal operating hours:
Monday to Friday 8.15 am to 5.00 pm
Saturday 8.00 am to 12.00 pm
You’ll find us off Granton Square, on the North side of the City. There is a map on the ‘Contact’page of our website.
It does not matter if you drive the Vehicle here or if it has to be towed.
Can you uplift my Vehicle?
Yes. Please give us a call on 0131 552 5559 and
we can discuss the details of your vehicle;
what the process for collection will entail, and arrange a convenient time to collect.
What happens next?
To ensure that you are released from having any further responsibility for the Vehicle we will generate a Certificate of Destruction (COD). This is produced through the DVLA system and will be sent to you within seven days of your Vehicle arriving at our premises.
You will then be free from any obligation to the Vehicle.
