Scrap My Car in Nunhead, Southwark
If a car in Nunhead 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.
Scrapping a car from Nunhead 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 Nunhead
We collect from every street in SE15 with our own truck, at a time agreed with you. Nunhead is about 10 miles from our yard in Erith, usually via Evelina Road or Nunhead 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.

Local knowledge of Nunhead
Most of our Nunhead scrap collections are from driveways and the street outside, but we also collect from garages, car parks near Nunhead Cemetery and private land. If the car is somewhere tight off Evelina Road, we winch it out.
With 2 stations nearby — Nunhead and Peckham Rye — commuter car parks are a regular call-out here; tell us which one and whether it has a barrier.
If you do not know the street name, a landmark is just as good: Nunhead Cemetery, Peckham Rye Common and Nunhead Green, or the stations at Nunhead and Peckham Rye. A dropped pin from your phone works too.

Scrap My Car in Nunhead — 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 Nunhead?
Nunhead is about 10 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually 40 minutes to an hour, normally coming in via Evelina Road and Nunhead 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 SE15?
Yes — every street in SE15, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Peckham, Brockley, East Dulwich and New Cross, 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 Nunhead station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Nunhead, 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 Evelina 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 Nunhead?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Nunhead, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
