You might want to get rid of an old car or van and replace it with a new, fuel-efficient vehicle for financial or environmental reasons. Older vehicles tend to be thirsty on fuel and in many cases, oil. Recycling an old car or van, therefore, reduces pollution and greenhouse gases, apart from boosting the seller’s bank balance. At Assington Autos, we recycle as many car parts as possible to conserve natural resources and minimise the impact of motoring on the environment.
Nowadays, UK law requires registered car scrap dealers to pay customers by bank cheque or money transfer. In other words, the outdated practice of paying cash for scrap vehicles no longer exists; in fact, it breaks the law. In 2013, new legislation prevented car thieves from stealing vehicles and scrapping them for immediate cash.
Interestingly, the introduction of secure measures benefited above-board motorists looking to scrap a car in Colchester and East Anglia, as scrap values rose slightly.
Instead of haggling over prices, we offer a rapid and guaranteed valuation for your scrap car. Additionally, if you are concerned about driving the car to our recycling facility, no problem – we will arrange to collect your scrap vehicle in or around Colchester, so you avoid stress and save time.
Importantly, we urge customers to be cautious of illegal or unlicensed operators that might offer an initial, notional price that sounds attractive. Beware of such scrap merchants because once on your doorstep, they use various common ploys to pay much lower rates.
