CarTakeBack provides a scrap car recycling service direct to the general public, but we also help many business customers expand their offering to their own customers. If you are a dealership, garage, MOT centre or local authority we can provide you with a professional, hassle-free service to recycle end of life vehicles. And if you’re an Authorised Treatment Facility, you could become a member of the largest scrap car recycling network in the UK!

We are the official car recycling partner for many vehicle manufacturers including Ford, Mazda, Peugeot, Renault and Tesla, and we’ve been the trusted service for numerous government and manufacturer scrappage schemes.

“As Renault, Dacia and Nissan’s official end of life vehicle partner for many years, CarTakeBack have successfully handled the scrapping of thousands of end of life vehicles on our behalf, whether direct from last owners or through one of our scrappage schemes. We have always been impressed with the service we have received and are proud to have CarTakeBack as our professional ‘one stop shop’ for our end of life vehicle requirements.”
