Scrap my car
in Godalming

Off the A3 at Milford

The A3 brings a collector to Milford in minutes from Guildford or from the Hampshire side, and the A283 and A281 take it on to Chiddingfold, Cranleigh and Haslemere. More than one yard can quote this way, and the site shows the top figure. The collector rings to agree a day once you accept — usually within one to three days, a day or two more for the far villages.

GU6, GU7, GU8 and GU27

GU7 is Godalming itself, Farncombe and Busbridge; GU8 Milford, Witley, Elstead, Hambledon, Chiddingfold and Dunsfold; GU6 Cranleigh; GU27 Haslemere and Hindhead. Godalming’s centre is narrow — Church Street, Mint Street, the lanes off the High Street — and the villages are long drives and field gates. The driver plans around it if you say where the car is.

Village cars

Older estates, 4x4s and the second car that stopped moving when the children left. Cars that have stood for years are non-runners and are winched from where they are; a complete 4x4 with its engine and gearbox is worth more than its weight and priced that way. MOT failures and write-offs are priced like a clean car, minus what is missing. Vans from the Catteshall and Dunsfold Park units go through the same form.

By a licensed yard, paid within 24 hours

The collector is an Authorised Treatment Facility. It checks the registered keeper’s photo ID and proof of address, pays by bank transfer within 24 hours of collection, and issues the Certificate of Destruction with the DVLA told. Lost the V5C? The ID replaces it.
