Scrap My Car in Kenley, Croydon
We collect scrap cars from every street in Kenley 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.
If a car in Kenley has come to the end — failed its MOT on something structural, been written off, or simply reached the point where the next repair costs more than it is worth — scrapping it should be the easy part. We make it that.
Free collection across CR8
Our own truck does the collection in Kenley, so there is no courier and no third party involved. Kenley is about 16.2 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Godstone Road (A22) or Hayes Lane, 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 Kenley: roads, landmarks and stations
We collect scrap vehicles across Kenley 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 Godstone Road (the A22), 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.
If you do not know the street name, a landmark is just as good: Kenley Aerodrome, Kenley Common and Riddlesdown, or Kenley station. A dropped pin from your phone works too.
Honest pricing in Kenley
Every job in Kenley is priced on its own merits rather than from a list. The vehicle, the collection address, the destination and anything unusual about the job all change the work involved. Tell us, and you get a fixed figure on the phone with no obligation. That figure is the price you pay. We take card and bank transfer.

Scrap My Car in Kenley — 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 Kenley?
Kenley is about 16.2 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually around an hour, normally coming in via Godstone Road (A22) and Hayes 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 CR8?
Yes — every street in CR8, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Purley, Sanderstead, Coulsdon and Selsdon, 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 Kenley station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Kenley, 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 Godstone 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 Kenley?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Kenley, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
