Scrapping a car in Weldon, the simple way

If you want to scrap your car in Weldon, you can get a price without anyone coming out to look at it first. Put your registration and postcode into our instant price form, and the figure appears on screen. Accept it, add your contact details and we call you to agree a collection time that works for you.

Weldon sits right next to Corby on its eastern side, along the A43 that heads on towards Stamford. That puts the village a short hop from our base, so it is one of the places we collect from most often. George Mitchell runs the business from Corby, and the collections are done with our own recovery trucks.

What kind of vehicles do people sell to us in Weldon?

Weldon is a mix of old and new. The stone cottages and narrow streets around the centre have been there for generations, while the newer developments around the village have brought in plenty of younger households with two or three cars each. Both ends of the village produce scrap cars, just for different reasons.

• Second cars that failed an MOT and have been parked on the drive ever since.
• Older family cars that have finally reached the point where repairs cost more than they are worth.
• Cars belonging to an older relative who has stopped driving.
• Work vans from local tradespeople, worn out after years on the A43.
• Cars that were damaged in a bump and kept after the insurer paid out.

We buy all of these, along with 4x4s and pickups, at any age and in any condition.

Old streets, tight spaces

Some of the older parts of Weldon were laid out long before anyone owned a car. Lanes can be narrow, parking can be on the street, and some cars are tucked into old garages or behind gates. That is not a problem for us. Our trucks include spec lift tow trucks and beavertail tilt-and-slide transporters, and we also run a van with dollies and skates for low garages and cars with seized wheels. Tell us about the access when we call and we bring the right kit.

How is the price worked out?

Scrap is priced by weight, so the heavier the vehicle, the more metal there is to recycle. The current scrap metal price matters too, and so do the make and model, whether the car is complete with its engine, gearbox, catalytic converter and wheels, whether you have keys and the V5C, and where the car is. Our guide on how scrap car prices work explains it in more depth.

The price you see online stands as long as the car is complete and as described. If something is different on the day, we explain why before we load and you are free to say no.

Paid by bank transfer, never cash

We pay instantly by bank transfer when we collect. The Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 makes it illegal to pay cash for scrap metal, and that includes scrap cars. If anyone in the area is still offering cash for cars, they are breaking the law. A bank transfer also leaves you with a clear record of the sale.

What happens to the car afterwards

We hold a waste carrier licence and a scrap metal collector's licence. Every car we collect from Weldon goes to a licensed Authorised Treatment Facility, which issues a Certificate of Destruction and tells the DVLA. Any full months of tax left are then refunded to you automatically. Our step by step guide to scrapping a car covers the whole process.
