Brigstock is one of the bigger villages in our patch, sitting on the A6116 between Corby and Thrapston. It has an old centre, newer homes, farms on the edges and Fermyn Woods Country Park close by. That mix means we get asked to move all sorts, from a family hatchback that failed its MOT to a pickup that has been parked behind a barn for years.

What we collect from Brigstock
We buy cars, vans up to 3.5 tonnes, 4x4s and pickups of any age, make or model. Each situation has its own page with more detail:
- Scrap car collection in Brigstock for any car you simply want gone.
- MOT failures in Brigstock when the repair list costs more than the car is worth.
- Non-runner collection in Brigstock for cars that will not start, have flat tyres or seized brakes.
- Damaged cars and write-offs in Brigstock including insurance buy-backs and flood damage.
- Scrap van collection in Brigstock for trade vans, ex-fleet vans and pickups.
Why village collections need a bit of planning
Plenty of Brigstock homes have long drives, gravel yards or cars tucked away in garages and outbuildings. The lanes around the village can be narrow, and farm traffic uses them too. When we call to book, we ask where the car is and how easy it is to reach, so we turn up with the right truck.
Our collections are carried out with the recovery trucks of our sister company, Rapid Recovery Corby. That gives us spec lift tow trucks, beavertail tilt-and-slide transporters and a van with dollies and skates for low garages and wheels that will not turn. If you have two cars to clear, some of our trucks carry one and tow another.
How much is my scrap car worth in Brigstock?
Scrap cars are priced mainly on weight, because scrap metal is bought per tonne, and on the current scrap metal price. On top of that we look at the make and model, whether the car is complete with its engine, gearbox, catalytic converter and wheels, whether there are keys and a V5C, and where it is.
The online price uses your registration to look up the vehicle and your postcode to place it. The price stands as long as the vehicle is complete and as described. If something is different when we arrive, for example the catalytic converter has gone, we explain before we load and you are free to say no. Our guide to how scrap car prices work explains more, and our scrap car costs page covers each service.
Paid properly, by bank transfer
We pay by bank transfer when we collect. We never pay cash, because the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 makes paying cash for scrap metal, scrap cars included, illegal. If someone offers you cash for cars around Brigstock, they are breaking the law.
By law we also have to check who is selling. Please have photo ID, such as a driving licence or passport, and proof of address ready. Hand over the V5C logbook if you have it and keep the yellow slip.
Paperwork that stays legal
Every car we collect goes to a licensed Authorised Treatment Facility. The ATF issues a Certificate of Destruction, normally within 7 days, and tells the DVLA. Any full months of tax left are refunded automatically once the DVLA knows. You should cancel the insurance yourself.
We hold a waste carrier licence and a scrap metal collector's licence. Our step by step guide on how to scrap a car covers the whole process, and if the logbook has gone missing, read scrapping a car without a logbook.
Nearby villages we also cover
We work across the area between Corby and Thrapston. Neighbours include Stanion, Weldon, Geddington and Lowick. George Mitchell runs the business from Corby and has been in vehicle recovery for over five years.
