SCRAP CAR BUYERS SOUTHEND

With a distribution centre on Harvey Road, Basildon we are your local Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF), which means that we are legally authorised by the Environment Agency to scrap and recycle vehicles.

We buy vehicles; cars and vans in all conditions. Possibly your car has long since failed its MOT or been in a crash and it's not worth the cost of repairs. Maybe your vehicle has been rotting away on a drive for an extensive time span, if not years. Your car may never again be driven, nor taxed nor insured. You could have lost the keys years back. 

Whatever the reason you have to scrap your car, as a local scrap car buyers for Southend, Benfleet Scrap Co can buy your vehicle. There are only a couple of restrictions when it comes to relevant documentation such as your V5C (log book), MOT, keys etc – further information can be found on our Scrap A Car FAQs page. 

Scrap car buyers, Benfleet Scrap Co is an independent scrap metal dealers and they make scrapping your car very trouble free. At first call us to get a quote, which is matched against our database, metal and used car prices in order to deliver the best possible price to you.

If you car is still roadworthy and is legally to be driven, then all you'll have to do is bring it along to our Basildon scrap yard. There we will take the relevant documentation and ID and pay you, either by debit card refund, cheque or if you are a regular customer, your Benfleet loyalty card. 

If your car is no longer roadworthy, essentially call us and we will make all the necessary arrangements to come and collect your car at a convenient address - with absolutely not cost to you!

Won't be around for when we collect your car? There's truly no compelling reason to stress, you should simply ask a relative, a companion or a neighbour to be at your premises - whether it be Southend or somewhere else. When we collect your vehicle, we can pay you with cheque or if your car still has a valid MOT certificate then we can pay you with cash. 

Once more, we should see documentation and ID proof before we can legally recover your vehicle for scrap and give payment; if you have a couple of queries, it may be worth reading our FAQs. 

Please also be aware that if we are paying by cheque, legally we must make it out to whoever is present on collection.

Like most scrap car buyers, Benfleet Scrap Co price vehicles based on our database, metal and used car prices to engine that our quotations are always highly competitive. However, these quotations are based on your vehicle being ‘complete'.

A ‘complete’ car is completely that – a vehicle with no significant parts missing. If your car doesn't have a wing mirror or that a handle is broken, don't stress. What we consider as major are one of the wheels missing or an engine, our Basildon scrap buyers are unable to price your vehicle as a 'complete' car. 

However don't lose hope as Benfleet Scrap Co scrap buyers can offer the most ideal cost on weight as it were. We will use our weighbridge to determine your car's weight and quote based on those results.
