Same Day Scrap Car Collection
Need your car gone today? We offer same day scrap car collection across Manchester and all ten Greater Manchester boroughs. Book before midday, we come to you the same day, and the money is in your bank account before you go to bed.
Whether the car runs or not, whatever condition it is in, our same day collection service operates seven days a week at no extra charge. No urgency fees, no call-out surcharges. The price you accept is the amount paid.
How Same Day Collection Actually Works
The process starts with your registration number. Enter it at our instant quote page, accept the price and select same day when choosing your collection slot. Our logistics team plans all same day routes in the morning, which is why midday is the cut-off. Accept before noon and a driver is allocated to your area for the afternoon.
For customers in central Manchester, Salford, Trafford and Stockport, same day availability is highest because our driver network is densest in those areas. If you are further out in Rochdale, Wigan or Leigh, we recommend booking as early as possible or calling us directly before 11am to confirm a slot.
Once the driver arrives the handover typically takes under 30 minutes. They check your ID, inspect the vehicle, load the car, hand you the Certificate of Destruction and initiate the bank transfer before they leave. You do not need to arrange anything else.

Most customers across Greater Manchester complete the entire process in under four hours. Here is exactly what happens from the moment you request a quote.

We ask that you accept your quote by midday to give us the best chance of getting a driver to you the same day. If you contact us directly by phone before 11am we can often confirm a same day slot within minutes. Collections can take place any time between 8am and 6pm depending on driver availability in your area.
No. Same day scrap car collection is included in the standard service at no additional charge. The price we quote is the price you receive regardless of whether we collect the same day, next day or any other day. There are no urgency fees or call-out charges.
We offer same day collection across most of Greater Manchester including all ten boroughs. Availability depends on driver capacity on the day. Central Manchester, Salford, Trafford and Stockport tend to have the most frequent same day availability. For boroughs further out such as Wigan or Rochdale, next day is more reliably guaranteed if you contact us in the afternoon.
Yes. Our flatbed recovery trucks with winching equipment are available for same day collection of non-running vehicles across Greater Manchester. Just let us know when booking that the car is a non-runner so we dispatch the right vehicle. There is no extra charge for non-runner collection on the same day.
Have your valid photo ID ready (driving licence or passport), the car keys, and your V5C logbook if you have it. If you are in a controlled parking zone or private car park, let us know when booking so the driver can plan access. The entire handover typically takes under 30 minutes.
The bank transfer is sent as soon as the driver leaves your address. For most customers in Greater Manchester this means the money arrives within one to three hours of collection. In some cases it can take until the following morning depending on your bank's processing times, but the transfer itself is initiated on the day.
