We collect sold cars from every part of Upper Norwood, at a time that suits you. If it is somewhere awkward — a tight close, an underground car park, a garage forecourt — tell us and we will bring the right equipment.
With 2 stations nearby — Crystal Palace and Gipsy 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: Crystal Palace Triangle, Upper Norwood Library and Westow Park, or the stations at Crystal Palace and Gipsy Hill. A dropped pin from your phone works too.

We Buy Cars in Upper Norwood — 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 Upper Norwood?
Upper Norwood is about 12.2 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 Church Road and Beulah 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 SE19?
Yes — every street in SE19, around the clock, including nights, weekends and bank holidays. We also cover the neighbouring areas of Crystal Palace, Anerley, West Norwood and South Norwood, 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 Crystal Palace station — can you help?
Yes. Station car parks are one of the most common places we are called to in Upper Norwood, 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 Church 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 Upper Norwood?
Yes. We work 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across Upper Norwood, Christmas Day and bank holidays included. A real person answers 07961 100260 — no call centre and no automated menu.
