Scrapping a car from Greenwich 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.

We collect scrap cars from every street in Greenwich 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.

We collect from every street in SE10 with our own truck, at a time agreed with you. Greenwich is about 7.5 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Trafalgar Road (A206) or Romney Road (A206), 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.

Around Greenwich: roads, landmarks and stations

We collect scrap vehicles across Greenwich 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 Trafalgar Road (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.

Landmarks we use to find people in Greenwich include Cutty Sark, Royal Observatory, Greenwich Park and Old Royal Naval College, and the stations at Greenwich, Cutty Sark and Maze Hill. If you are lost, tell us what you can see and we will work it out together.

What it costs in Greenwich

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 Greenwich — no extras added on the day. We take card and bank transfer.

Scrap My Car in Greenwich — 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 Greenwich?

Greenwich is about 7.5 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 Trafalgar Road (A206) and Romney Road (A206). 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 SE10?

Yes — every street in SE10, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Westcombe Park, Deptford, Blackheath and Greenwich Peninsula, 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 Greenwich station — can you help?

Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Greenwich, 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 Trafalgar Road — 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 Greenwich?

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

What our customers say

“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.”

“They collect my van for its MOT and bring it back the same day. I have not taken a morning off work for it in three years now.”

Michael O.
Welling

“Had an old car sitting on the drive for years. They quoted a fair price, collected it free, and sorted the DVLA paperwork so I did not have to think about it again.”
