On collection day, they’ll call as they near and ask for documents like the V5C or keys (though not essential). You don’t need to be there, but a signed note and ID are necessary.

We guarantee quick payment via BACS transfer once your car is collected. As soon as the scrap yard confirms the car’s arrival, we release the payment to your provided account.
