Local knowledge of Crouch End
Most Crouch End collections are from a driveway or the street outside, but we also collect from garages, car parks and private land — anywhere from Crouch End Clock Tower to the roads off Park Road. No keys, flat tyres or seized brakes are not a problem.
With 2 stations nearby — Hornsey and Crouch Hill — 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: Crouch End Clock Tower, Hornsey Town Hall and Alexandra Palace, or the stations at Hornsey and Crouch Hill. A dropped pin from your phone works too.
What it costs in Crouch End
Every job in Crouch End 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.

We Buy Cars in Crouch End — FAQs
How do you work out the price for my car?
From the make, model, age, mileage and what is wrong with it. Give us the registration and an honest description and we will give you a price on the phone. If the car matches the description, that is what we pay.
How quickly can you reach me in Crouch End?
Crouch End is about 14.4 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 Park Road and Crouch End Hill. 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.
Do you buy cars that do not run?
Yes — non-runners, engine and gearbox failures, flood damage, no keys, flat tyres. That is most of what we buy.
Do you cover all of N8?
Yes — every street in N8, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Finsbury Park, Canonbury, Camden and Hampstead Garden Suburb, so if you are on a boundary it makes no difference.
How and when do I get paid?
By bank transfer before we load the car, so you never hand it over unpaid.
My car won't start at Hornsey station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Crouch End, 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.
What paperwork do I need?
Ideally the V5C logbook and proof of ID. We notify the DVLA of the sale for you, so you are no longer responsible for the vehicle.
I have broken down on Park 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.
Is collection really free?
Yes. We collect with our own truck at no charge, from a driveway, the street, a garage or a car park.
Are you open at night and at weekends in Crouch End?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Crouch End, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
