You may be tempted to salvage parts from your car if you are sending it to be scrapped. However, by removing tyres or wheels it is much harder for a scrap car company to collect your vehicle. It may even be refused. It is also more difficult for the scrap yard to sell on the vehicle therefore decreasing its value substantially.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At Birmingham Autobreak, we scrap cars from Birmingham and the surrounding areas, Walsall, Sutton Coldfield, Solihull and Tamworth. Not only do we offer vehicle recycling but we refurbish and resell car parts<\/a>. A scrap vehicle is of far greater value when it is left intact and this is reflected in the amount we give you for your scrap car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If a scrap company tries to negotiate the price they have promised when they collect your vehicle, we recommend you reconsider. Be completely honest with the company about the state of your vehicle<\/a> and settle on a guaranteed price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At Birmingham Autobreak our service across the West Midlands is highly regarded. The price we offer you is the price you get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you are scrapping your car the likelihood is that the vehicle isn\u2019t roadworthy. It is essential that you will have to have your car collected. You shouldn\u2019t have to pay an additional fee for this service. Collection of your vehicle should be included in the price you have been offered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At Birmingham Autobreak we offer free collection to a wide area including Birmingham, Solihull, Walsall, Sutton Coldfield, Tamworth, Redditch and Bromsgrove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Many people don\u2019t realise that you can claim back your vehicle tax<\/a>. When your car has been scrapped, simply let the DVLA know and your tax will be cancelled and you will be refunded any tax that you have already paid for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some less reputable companies will insist that without a log book (V5)<\/a> your vehicle is worth less. This isn\u2019t the case. The DVLA doesn’t require you to provide a logbook to scrap a vehicle. This should have no impact on the price that you are offered for your car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At Birmingham Autobreak we are completely transparent and always offer you the best price for your car. We don\u2019t employ any tricks to devalue your car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have an excellent reputation across Birmingham and the surrounding areas as the best scrap yard in the area. Our experienced professionals know all there is to know about vehicle recycling. If you have any questions about scrapping your car, please get in touch<\/a> today and our helpful team will be happy to advise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Thinking about scrapping your car?
