You can either drop your car off to one of our depots in Essex. Or if your vehicle is unroadworthy, we’ll come to you to collect it.
When we collect your vehicle or when you drop it off to us, we will pay you same day
With three depots conveniently located across Essex and a team of more than fifty members of staff – including four dedicated recovery drivers – Benfleet Scrap Co is the name to choose for scrap car buyers Rayleigh.
We can scrap cars and vans in all conditions. From insurance write-offs to vehicles literally rotting on the driveway; MOT failures to those at the end of their life; we can scrap them all. Plus we offer the best possible valuation for your car, matching it to our database whilst referring to current metal and used car prices.
It is worth noting that our valuation is based on your scrap vehicle being ‘complete’. If it has major parts missing, the value will be determined on weight only.
If you can still legally and safely drive your vehicle, simply drop it off at one of Benfleet Scrap Co’s three Essex depots and we’ll do the rest.
Alternatively, if you cannot drive your car, contact your local scrap car buyers Rayleigh to arrange free collection. We have four full time drivers who cover the whole of the county, collecting scrap cars that cannot be dropped off at our depots. As long as it has wheels and tyres and can be loaded onto our recovery lorry, we can still scrap your vehicle.
There are few things you will need when scrapping your car; for full information on any documents and items required, as well as other pertinent details, please visit our Scrap Car FAQ page.
Benfleet Scrap Co is a family run business that has been in the scrap and recycling industry for more than four decades. We are a fully Authorised Treatment Facility, licensed by the Environment Agency to legally scrap vehicles in a safe, environmentally friendly manner.
It also enables us to issue with a Certificate of Destruction once your car has been successfully scrapped; this will take approximately 2-3 weeks for you to receive.
Please be aware that you should never scrap your car with a business that is not an ATF. You will remain liable for any traffic offences or legal issues that may arise as a consequence.
