Scrap car collection in Exeter
An easier way to deal with a worn-out car
Older vehicles can become expensive quickly when warning lights, MOT repairs or mechanical faults begin to mount up. We help Exeter motorists find a sensible value and arrange recovery without unnecessary complication.
The car can often be collected from a driveway, workplace or repairer, including when it is no longer driveable. We cover the city and many nearby parts of the Exe valley.
Before the appointment, we set out the identity checks, payment method and keeper responsibilities. This leaves you prepared for the vehicle handover and its onward recycling.
How it works
A simple route from quote to collection
Give us the facts and we will organise the next steps.
Agree the booking
Consider the offer without pressure. When accepted, the recovery address and a suitable collection window can be confirmed.
Hand the car over
Have the requested identification ready. The driver completes the vehicle checks, recovery and agreed non-cash payment process.
Local coverage
Serving neighbourhoods throughout Exeter

What can be collected?
We consider vehicles with engine or gearbox failure, accident damage, heavy corrosion, electrical faults, MOT problems or deterioration caused by standing unused.
Let us know if keys are missing, brakes are seized or wheels have been removed. A clear description helps the partner decide how the car can be recovered safely.

Common questions
Exeter scrap vehicle FAQs
Can you recover a car from a narrow Exeter street?
Often, but the street width, parking and turning space need to be assessed. Photos or a precise description may be requested before a truck is assigned.
Is collection available from a repair garage?
Yes, where the garage gives permission and the vehicle is accessible during the agreed hours. Provide the business contact and any entry instructions when booking.
Will an MOT failure reduce the offer?
The condition and likely recycling or salvage route contribute to the valuation. Describe the MOT failure accurately so the original offer is less likely to change at inspection.
Why is scrap car payment not made in cash?
The law requires payment for scrap metal to be traceable. A bank transfer or another permitted method creates a clear record for both parties.
What happens if the car has no keys?
Collection may still be possible, although different loading equipment can be required. Declare lost keys before the appointment so access and steering can be considered.
Do I need to cancel my road tax?
Notify the DVLA of the transfer first. Any eligible vehicle tax refund is then handled by the DVLA, while your insurance should be dealt with separately.
