Yes. We collect from all Saddleworth villages including Uppermill, Delph, Diggle, Dobcross and Greenfield. The moorland roads and steep village streets are no barrier for our specialist vehicles and there is no extra charge for these locations.
Modified vehicles are accepted. Parts such as aftermarket exhausts, body kits, spoilers and wheels are included with the vehicle and do not change our quoted price. However, if valuable components such as the catalytic converter, battery or engine have been removed, let us know when requesting a quote as this affects the weight-based valuation.

If you bought the vehicle privately and do not have the V5C, you can still scrap it with us. You will need to complete a V890 form and provide proof that you are the registered keeper. Call us before booking and we will advise on the exact documents required for your situation.
If your car has an outstanding finance agreement, you must settle the finance with the lender before we can legally collect and scrap it. The vehicle cannot be sold or scrapped while finance remains outstanding, as the finance company technically retains ownership. Contact your lender for a settlement figure before booking collection.
