What happens when I scrap my Toyota?
When you get in touch with Scrap Car Kings, we’ll give you a cash price for your Toyota. Once the price has been accepted, we’ll arrange a place and time that’s best for you to come and collect the vehicle. We’ll then fill in the relevant part of your log book, and we’ll inform the DVLA that we have scrapped your vehicle. Your Toyota will then be taken to an Authorised Treatment Facility, where your Toyota scrapping service will take place.
What affects my Toyota scrap value?
When scrapping a Toyota car, the weight of your vehicle will have the biggest impact on the price you receive. Models like the Toyota avensis are among the heaviest in their class, so they’ll fetch a higher price than smaller cars like the Toyota yaris.
Beyond weight, other factors that will affect the complete scrap toyota valuation include its age, condition, and any damage it has sustained. If you have an older model that’s in good condition, you will receive better scrap prices than for a newer model that’s in poor condition.
And if your car has been in an accident or has sustained other damage, that will also reduce its value. So if you’re looking to get top dollar for your Toyota, be sure to keep these factors in mind.
Common reasons for scrapping an Toyota
There are a number of reasons why owners might choose to scrap their toyota cars. One common reason is that the vehicle has failed its most recent MOT test. If a car fails its MOT, it can be very costly to repair and may not be worth the investment.
Another reason for scrapping a Toyota may be because the vehicle has been involved in an accident and is beyond repair. In some cases, the electrics of the car may also be faulty, making it unsafe to drive.
Finally, some owners simply find it time-consuming and difficult to find the perfect buyer for their car. Scrapping your Toyota car is a simple and straightforward process with our toyota car scrap yards.
Scrappage vs scrapping – what’s best for your car?
The main difference between Toyota’s part-exchange scheme and scrapping your Toyota car through our scrap car dealers or Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF), are the conditions tied to receiving your money.
With a part-exchange scheme, you won’t know exactly how much your Toyota vehicle could be worth until you take it to the Toyota dealership for an appraisal.
Additionally, once you have received your quote, that quote will often depend on you trading in your car and using the money you receive to buy a new car from Toyota.
Our scrap Toyota disposal service means that not only will you receive a competitive price for your scrap Toyota, but also that no condition is placed on what you do with the money you receive.
Whether you choose to spend it, save it or reinvest it in another vehicle, the choice is yours. Contact us today to learn more about our Toyota scrap car services!

My Toyota is too good to scrap – what should i do?
Toyota produces a range of vehicles that are known for their high-quality engineering and cutting-edge design.
If your Toyota is coming to the end of its life, you may be wondering what to do with it. Although it’s still running, you may not want the hassle and expense of repairing it. And although it’s complete, you may not want to go through the process of selling it yourself.
Fortunately, Scrap vehicle dealers can still pay you cash for your Toyota. Using our online quote system, we will provide you with a cash price and can collect free of charge. We offer the same service as if your car was scrapped, but pay more money which will give you some extra cash towards a new vehicle.
It will also save you the time and effort of selling your old Toyota yourself. So if you’re looking for a hassle-free way to get rid of your old Toyota, contact our salvage buyers today.
Reasons to Scrap Your Toyota
There are dozens of reasons as to why you might want to scrap your Toyota – here are just a few!
You’re Paying Too Much on Maintenance and Repairs
If your Toyota is breaking down every couple of months, failing its MOT each year or is costing you a fortune in repairs and replacement parts, it’s a sure sign that it’s time to scrap Toyota sooner rather than later.
Your Car’s Been Written Off
If you’ve had an accident, your car might have taken a bit of a battering. If it looks like it’ll cost more to fix your car than it’s worth, scrapping your Toyota is a good way to get a bit of cash ready for a new purchase!
Your Car’s Drinking Too Much Fuel
Older models are often very fuel inefficient, so if you’re finding yourself at the petrol pump more often than you’d like, it might be the right time to scrap your car for cash and invest in a newer, more efficient model. Easier on your wallet and kinder to the environment!

A scrap car removal service removes unwanted vehicles for recycling. The registration of the car must be surrendered to the recycler in order to cancel the vehicle tax.
Direct Debits for car tax will be automatically cancelled by the DVLA, and any months remaining on the tax will be refunded. A check will be issued and made out to the registered keeper of the vehicle.
In the case that you own the vehicle but you are not the registered keeper, you can write or contact the DVLA with proof of your ownership, such as a bill of sale.
Please include your name, address, and registration number. Additionally, be sure to mention that you want the car tax refund sent to your address.
Once our collector has inspected the vehicle and confirm that it is as the seller has claimed, they will then proceed to make payment.
This helps to protect both parties from any complications and is line with our network terms. Our collector also needs to check the vehicle is as the seller has claimed to confirm it’s worth the full value of the quote.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. Thank you for choosing our service.
If you have lost the keys to your car, don’t worry – we can still scrap it for you. Just leave it to us and when we contact you to confirm your details, please let us know if there are any obstructions or height restrictions that could make it difficult to recover. You can sell your car for scrap without the keys, but you will need to provide us with paperwork proving vehicle ownership and there may be deductions from your final payment for any inconvenience and extra work for the scrap dealer who collects it. Thanks for choosing Scrap My Car!

We will also give you a certificate of destruction. only authorised centres are able to provide this. The certificate provides evidence the vehicle has been taken off of the road and scrapped.
Without this document you could potentially still be liable for insurance or road tax. We are an authorised centre and can provide you with the certificate of destruction for your vehicle.
If you don’t have a registration certificate, you can still contact the DVLA to let them know your car has been scrapped.
Make sure to give the full details of the scrap yard or recycling center, as well as the car details including registration, make, model, and date of sale.
The DVLA will need this information in order to remove the vehicle from their records and avoid any penalties for unlicensed vehicles.
By law, all scrap yards and recycling centers must be licensed by the Environment Agency, so you can be confident that it will be disposed of safely and responsibly.
When it comes to scrapping a vehicle, there is a lot of paperwork that needs to be filled out in order to properly process the transaction. who handles this paperwork depends on a few different factors.
If you have any remaining tax or insurance, it is best for you to handle the paperwork so that you can get proper refunds. However, if these elements have already been taken care of, then we can handle the paperwork for you.
In either case, we will need some basic information from you in order to properly process the transaction and ensure that everything is handled correctly.
Scrapping a vehicle can be a bit of a hassle, but we will do everything we can to make the process as smooth and easy as possible for you.
