A Look Into Scraping Vehicles in Britain

If you have an unwanted car or your vehicle has been recently been damaged so it's no longer road worthy it is absolutely imperative that you take it to be scrapped.

The scrapping scheme which is currently in place in Britain is a safe and secure operation which provides a peace of mind to all road users and pedestrians. When a car is driven on the road, it is assumed by others that the vehicle is safe, environmentally friendly and should legally be on the road.

By choosing to illegally drive a damaged or unsafe vehicle puts others at risk as well as yourself, which may result in a serious accident, or worse death.

Scrapping your car is the safest and economically friendly way to dispose of a vehicle that is not road legal or past its best. The first protocol to scrapping any vehicle is to find an authorised treatment facility (ATF). It is important that you always look for a fully registered ATF company which is supported by the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) and the MVDA (Motor vehicle Dismantlers Association). If you are going to scrap a vehicle you should do it properly and safely which is why you need to look for a fully recognised company.

After having your vehicle scrapped you should receive a certificate of destruction (CoD) straight away or within 7 days. The authorised treatment facility (ATF) who dismantled your vehicle will inform the DVLA that you are no longer responsible for the vehicle and that you have just had it scrapped saving you the hassle of dealing further more with your old vehicle.
