CarTakeBack is the largest scrap car recycling network in the UK. We’ve been in the industry since 2005 and offering scrap car collections since 2007, so you can be sure you’re going to get an expert service! Our scrap car collection option is ideal if you don’t have the time to drop your car off, but it’s also the perfect option if your car isn’t working, or if you don’t have tax, insurance or a valid MOT.
With over 300 scrap car collectors across the UK ready to buy your car, we’re never far away and can collect your car from anywhere in the UK! Free scrap car collection can be arranged at a time to suit you. We’ll collect from any accessible location, whether it’s your home, work or a garage. Just let us know where you’d like your car to be collected from and we’ll get in touch to arrange the details with you.
Arranging the collection of your car is quick and easy. After you’ve accepted a quote for your scrap car, your local CarTakeBack branch will contact you to arrange a convenient time and date to collect your car, and answer any questions you might have.
We’ll do our best to fit in with you and most scrap car collections are arranged within a day or two of you accepting a quote. Collections usually take place from Monday to Saturday between 7am and 7pm. But please let us know if you’re in a hurry, or you need us to collect your car earlier or later than this, or on a Sunday, and we’ll do our best to help.
We’ll send you a reminder, either a text or email, to confirm the collection date and time that we agreed with you.
On the collection day you’ll need to have a few things ready…
When we collect your car, we’ll help with the paperwork, and sort the payment.
CarTakeBack launched in 2005, and in 2007 began collecting cars in certain areas of the country. The first car collected was a 1987 Peugeot 205! Shortly after, in 2008, CarTakeBack introduced fully nationwide scrap car collection. Collecting cars across the UK, we’ve even collected vehicles in the remotest of locations like Shetland, the Outer Hebrides and the Isles of Scilly!
Scrap car collection has become so popular with our customers, that over 95% of vehicles sold with CarTakeBack are collected, rather than delivered to our branches.

Friendly and efficient and the best quote for my car. Very easy to deal with, reassuring and with excellent reviews already I decided to choose this option.
Very well organised friendly and helpful collection driver. Good price given for my vehicle. Would highly recommend this company to anyone wishing to part with their vehicle
I was expecting lots of faff a messing but I couldn’t have been more wrong. They booked to arrange collection. Turned up when they said. Took the car. Paid the money shortly afterwards. Sent certificate of destruction later on.
Very kind and polite. Helped so much and made it very easy with a contactless pickup which worked around my job. Recommended to my sister who will also use this service soon.
They did everything they said they would do. No messing with the price. The driver even collected the car from a busy dual-carriageway and handled the situation safely and professionally. Would recommend!
Excellent service with not one complication. Ross came to pick up car at the exact time and was so informative. The next day my payment was in my account and a week later I received a cheque from DVLA refunding my road tax. Well impressed and grateful.
CarTakeBack does what it says on the tin. I needed my car gone, contacted CarTakeBack and the operation was swift and hassle free. My car was collected and the money was in the bank that very morning. Lovely staff too.
Easy to arrange collection. Car was collected at stated time, and cheque left in post box. Great service. Certificate of distruction issued soon after.
Straight forward, didn’t need to view the vehicle and organised a local recycler to collect it. Payment was in my bank from the local recycler same day as collection.
I sold my car to car take back. I rang in the afternoon and they come on the same day which was really good. The man that came to my house was so nice, he explained everything that I needed to do with D. V. A. I was paid the same day to. Bolton
The process was very smooth and quickly organised. The vehicle was picked up at the time arranged and the driver could not have been more helpful. We were kept up to date each step of the way. The certificate arrived quickly afterwards. Would recommend and use again.
Excellent service. Called me the same day to arrange collection. The man that collected my car was very friendly and helpful and the money was in my account a few hours later! Definitely recommend.
Everything was straight forward the staff are very helpful and answered all my questions. I normally just trade my car in so have never had to deal with DVLA. Their guide to completing the online form was excellent.
