I cannot find my V5 registration document — can my car be scrapped?

We or the DVLA have no problem if you need to scrap a vehicle without a V5, but it is your legal responsibility to make sure you provide the DVLA with the information they require to keep their records up to date. You can do this online at the DVLA Website.

What is the difference between salvaging or scrapping a car?

Car salvaging involves recovering a vehicle to repair it or strip it for parts, rather than dismantling and recycling it. Salvaging typically offers a higher return for your car or van.

What happens to my scrap car?

When your car is scrapped the vehicle will be fully recycled. All of the manufacturer's components and mechanical parts will be stripped and then processed according to ELV/ATF licensed environmental protocols. Most of the materials used to manufacture new cars can now be fully recycled.
