Scrap car collection
Scrap my car in Norwich
Non-runners, MOT failures and write-offs collected off your drive anywhere in Norwich. Through an authorised treatment facility, paid the same day.
Collected off your Norwich drive
If it will not start, will not pass, or is not worth fixing, we will come and take it. Anywhere in Norwich and the ring of villages around it, off your drive, without you having to arrange transport or a low-loader.
Why not use a national site?
Search to scrap a car in Norwich and the top results are usually national middlemen. They do not own a van. They take your details, sell the lead to a local operator, and take a cut. You are already dealing with someone local when you deal with us — so the money that would have gone to the middleman stays in the deal.
The paperwork that actually matters
Until a car is properly destroyed and DVLA notified, it is still legally yours — along with anything done in it. We get the car to an authorised treatment facility, which is the only kind of place that can issue a certificate of destruction and close the record. You tell DVLA it has gone; that part has to come from you as the keeper.
What affects what it is worth
Weight, completeness, whether it is a runner, and the scrap metal price that week. Send a photo of the car and the V5 and we will give you a straight figure, not a headline number that shrinks on collection day.
How it works
Three steps. No site visit.
Send a photo
WhatsApp a picture of whatever needs shifting. No need to tidy it first or guess the weight.
Get a price
A straight number back, usually the same day. The real price for your actual load.
It’s gone
We turn up, load it, sweep up, and you get the paperwork showing where it went.
The money bit
What actually decides the price
Nobody likes “it depends”. Here is what it actually depends on, so you can guess pretty well before you even send the photo.
01
How much there is
The biggest single factor, and the one the photo answers on its own. We price by what it takes to shift — part of a van, a full van, one tipper load, three.
02
What’s in it
Some things carry a disposal charge by law — fridges, mattresses, tyres, plasterboard, paint. Others go the other way: if there’s real metal in the load, that value comes off your price.
03
How hard it is to reach
Kerbside and a wide drive is quick. Up two flights, through a narrow side gate, or forty yards down a wet garden is not. We’re charging for the time, not punishing you for the stairs.
04
Where you are
Wymondham and Hethersett are on the doorstep. Beccles is a run. It’s rarely the deciding factor, but it’s honest to say it counts for something.
Why there’s no “from £80” on this page
Because a from-price is a number chosen to get you on the phone, not a number anyone intends to charge. You ring, it turns out your job isn’t the one job in a hundred that qualifies, and the real figure lands once someone is already stood on your drive.
We’d rather you got the actual number for your actual load, in writing, before anyone turns up — and that you were free to ignore it. The price we send is the price you pay, unless you add to the pile, in which case tell us and we’ll re-quote.
FAQ
Straight answers
What areas do you cover?
Wymondham and everywhere down the A11 and A47 — Norwich, Attleborough, Thetford, Diss, Long Stratton and across into Suffolk to Beccles and Bungay. If you are not sure, just ask.
Is it all done legally?
Yes. We are an upper-tier registered waste carrier and a licensed scrap metal dealer with both councils, and every load comes with a waste transfer note. Ask for our registration number when you ring and we will give it to you, so you can check it against our name on the public register.
How quickly can you come?
Often the same week, sometimes the same day if we are passing. Tell us where you are and you will get the honest answer rather than the one that gets us the booking.
