Scrap My Car in Ladywell, Lewisham
If a car in Ladywell 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.
We collect scrap cars from every street in Ladywell 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 come to you in Ladywell
Our own truck does the collection in Ladywell, so there is no courier and no third party involved.

Around Ladywell: roads, landmarks and stations
Most of our Ladywell scrap collections are from driveways and the street outside, but we also collect from garages, car parks near Ladywell Fields and private land. If the car is somewhere tight off Ladywell Road, we winch it out.
If you stop on Loampit Vale (the A20), 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 Ladywell include Ladywell Fields, University Hospital Lewisham and Ladywell Arena, and Ladywell station. If you are lost, tell us what you can see and we will work it out together.

Scrap My Car in Ladywell — 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 Ladywell?
Ladywell is about 8.5 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 Ladywell Road and Loampit Vale (A20). 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 SE13?
Yes — every street in SE13, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Lewisham, Catford, Crofton Park and Hither Green, 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 Ladywell station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Ladywell, 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 Ladywell Road — what should I do?
Put your hazards on, stay visible and ring 07961 100260. Give us the nearest house number or junction and we will tell you exactly where we will load. If the street is tightly parked we may winch the car out rather than reverse in, so it helps to know how much space there is.
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 Ladywell?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Ladywell, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
