Collection is from your door anywhere in Barkingside — the driveway, the street outside, a garage or a car park.

Scrap My Car in Barkingside — FAQs
How much will I get for scrapping my car?
It depends mainly on the weight of the vehicle and current metal prices, and whether any parts are reusable. Give us the registration and we will give you a figure on the phone.
How quickly can you reach me in Barkingside?
Barkingside is about 8.4 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually 30 to 50 minutes, normally coming in via Eastern Avenue (A12) and Tanners Lane. Traffic, the time of day and how many jobs are running all move that, so when you ring 07961 100260 we give you a real window for that moment rather than a best case.
What paperwork do I need to scrap a car?
The V5C logbook if you have it, and proof of ID. We notify the DVLA and arrange the Certificate of Destruction, which is your proof the car has been scrapped properly.
Do you cover all of IG6?
Yes — every street in IG6, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Ilford, Stratford, Thamesmead and Hackney, so if you are on a boundary it makes no difference.
Does the car need to be running?
No. It does not need to run, have keys or have inflated tyres — we winch it onto the truck.
My car won't start at Barkingside station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Barkingside, usually for a flat battery after the car has sat all day. Tell us which car park and roughly where you are parked. If it has a height barrier or a pay-on-exit gate, mention that too and we will send the right vehicle and sort the exit with you.
When do I get paid?
Before we load the car, by bank transfer.
I have broken down on Eastern Avenue — what should I do?
That is a main road, so safety first: if the car can roll, get it to the kerb or into a side road, switch on your hazards, and wait somewhere safe away from the traffic — not in the car. Then ring 07961 100260. Red routes and bus lanes are enforced quickly, so we prioritise moving vehicles off them.
Can I scrap a car without the logbook?
Usually yes, with proof of ownership and ID. Tell us when you ring and we will explain what is needed.
Are you open at night and at weekends in Barkingside?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Barkingside, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
