Around Dartford: roads, landmarks and stations
Most Dartford collections are from a driveway or the street outside, but we also collect from garages, car parks and private land — anywhere from Dartford Crossing to the roads off Dartford Crossing approach (A282). No keys, flat tyres or seized brakes are not a problem.
If you stop on Dartford Crossing approach (the A282), 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: Dartford Crossing, Orchards Shopping Centre, Darent Valley Hospital and Central Park, or Dartford station. A dropped pin from your phone works too.
What it costs in Dartford

We Buy Cars in Dartford — 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 Dartford?
Dartford is about 3.2 miles from our yard at Standard Wharf, 189 Manor Road, Erith, so for an emergency we are usually 20 to 35 minutes, normally coming in via Dartford Crossing approach (A282) and Princes Road (A225). 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 DA1, DA2?
Yes — every street in DA1, DA2, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Wilmington, Crayford, Slade Green and Greenhithe, 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 Dartford station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Dartford, 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 Dartford Crossing approach — 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.
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 Dartford?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Dartford, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
