Recycling & Environmental Compliance

Scrapping a car isnt just about convenience or cash — its also about responsibility. The UK government requires that all vehicles be processed through licensed Authorised Treatment Facilities (ATFs), where the dismantling and recycling process is done safely and in line with environmental legislation. We only work with ATFs that meet these strict standards, giving you peace of mind from start to finish.

When your vehicle is recycled, its first depolluted to remove hazardous materials like oils, batteries, tyres, and brake fluids. These materials are disposed of according to Environmental Agency rules, while the rest of the vehicle is stripped for reusable parts and raw metals. Around 95% of a modern car can be reused or recycled — significantly reducing landfill and carbon waste.

This section explains what happens to your vehicle after it’s collected, how recycling supports UK sustainability goals, and why environmental compliance matters. Whether youre environmentally conscious or just want reassurance that your car is being scrapped the right way, weve got you covered with transparency, legal backing, and certified recycling partners.
