4.9/5 stars based on 1,539 service ratings over the past year

Easy car disposal

Easy transactions with vehicles collected from base so no need to travel and payments made on the day of the offered amount. More than scrap value if taken to scrap metal yard.

5 stars

Quick and easy

It was a very straightforward process and everything went very smoothly on the day the car was collected. I was paid promptly. I did not give 5 stars only because the quoted price was a bit less than when I checked previously.

4 stars

Great experience, you won't be disappointed

Very impressed. It was so simple and stress free. From quote to pick up was a couple of days, payment was on same day as pick up. Communication from transporters was excellent, advised arrival time, and turned up on the dot. I've already recommended them to others.

5 stars

Great
