Scrap My Car in Crayford, Bexley

We collect scrap cars from every street in Crayford with our own truck, free of charge. It does not need to run, have keys or have tyres that hold air. You are paid before we load it.

Scrapping a car from Crayford with us is simple: tell us the registration, agree a price, and choose a collection time. We notify the DVLA and arrange the Certificate of Destruction so you have proof it is gone.

Collection from anywhere in Crayford

Collection is from your door anywhere in Crayford — the driveway, the street outside, a garage or a car park. Crayford is about 2.3 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Crayford Way (A206) or London Road (A207), so same-day and next-day collections are normally easy to arrange. The vehicle does not need to run — non-runners, no-key vehicles and flat tyres are all fine.

Where we work in Crayford

We collect scrap vehicles across Crayford every week. Let us know if it is boxed in, has flat tyres or no keys, and we will bring the right equipment.

If you stop on Crayford Way (the A206), it is a main road — get the vehicle to the kerb or a side street if it will roll, put the hazards on and wait somewhere safe, not in the car.

Not sure of the exact address? Give us a nearby reference point — Crayford Stadium, Crayford Manor House and Tower Retail Park, or Crayford station — and we will find you. You can also drop us a pin from your phone's map app.

What it costs in Crayford

We do not work from a price list, because no two jobs are the same. The vehicle, the collection address, the destination and anything unusual about the job all change the work involved. Ring 07961 100260 with the details and we will give you one fixed price for Crayford — no extras added on the day. We take card and bank transfer.

Scrap My Car in Crayford — 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 Crayford?

Crayford is about 2.3 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually 15 to 25 minutes, normally coming in via Crayford Way (A206) and London Road (A207). 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 DA1?

Yes — every street in DA1, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Barnehurst, Bexley, Slade Green and Dartford, 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 Crayford station — can you help?

Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Crayford, 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 Crayford Way — 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 Crayford?

Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Crayford, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.

Customer reviews

What our customers say

“Put petrol in a diesel at the services. Rang them in a panic, they told me not to start the engine, sorted it and I was away in just over an hour. Sensible people who clearly know what they are doing.”

James T.
Dartford

“Used them to collect a car I bought at auction in Essex. Fixed price on the phone, arrived when they said, delivered when they said. Refreshingly straightforward.”

Priya K.
Greenwich

“Work van died on a Sunday with a full load of tools in the back. They recovered it loaded so I did not have to empty it at the roadside, then repaired it during the week. Saved me two days.”
