Scrap my car
in Walton-on-Thames

Between the A3 and the M25

Junction 10 of the M25 at Wisley and junction 11 at Chertsey, the A3 through Esher and Cobham, the A317 along the river: a collector can reach any of these towns without a long run, so more than one yard quotes here and the site shows the best figure. The collecting yard rings to agree a day, usually within one to three days.

KT10 to KT16

KT12 is Walton and Hersham; KT13 Weybridge, St George’s Hill and Brooklands; KT10 Esher, Claygate and Hinchley Wood; KT11 Cobham and Stoke d’Abernon; KT15 Addlestone and New Haw; KT16 Chertsey, Ottershaw and Lyne. Gated drives and private roads are normal — St George’s Hill, the Crown Estate at Oxshott — and the driver needs the gate code or someone at the entrance. Nearer the stations it is flats and permit bays.

Newer cars, bigger faults

This is where a scrap site meets cars that are not really scrap: a five-year-old German saloon with a failed gearbox, a family SUV written off in a supermarket car park, a convertible that has sat under a cover since the divorce. Those are priced on what they are — repair value, parts value, the catalytic converter, the alloys — not only on weight, and the price page shows how. Damaged cars and newer cars with one big fault do best when you describe the fault honestly. Ordinary MOT failures and non-runners are priced the usual way, winch included.

Paid within 24 hours, by the yard

The collector is an Authorised Treatment Facility. Photo ID and proof of address for the registered keeper, bank transfer within 24 hours of collection — no cash, by law — and the Certificate of Destruction issued so the DVLA record is closed. Private plates come off before collection; a missing V5C is covered by the ID check.
