Frequently Asked Questions
What happens to the leftover parts of a wrecked car?
Once all reusable parts have been stripped, the remaining vehicle shell—usually made of steel or aluminium—is crushed and sent to a metal recycling facility. Fluids, batteries and tyres are also removed and disposed of or recycled in accordance with environmental standards. This helps minimise waste and allows as much of the car as possible to be reused or repurposed.
Do car wreckers accept unregistered vehicles?
Yes, car wreckers will generally accept vehicles that are no longer registered, as registration status is irrelevant to the wrecking process. However, you will still need to provide proof that you legally own the car—such as a previous registration certificate, sales receipt, or other evidence of ownership. Some wreckers may also request you to remove the number plates and cancel the registration with your local road authority, especially if you want to avoid ongoing registration charges or toll penalties.
Can I recycle just part of my car, like the engine or gearbox?
Yes, you don’t have to scrap your whole car to work with a wrecker. If you have a spare engine, gearbox or other major component that’s still in good condition, some wreckers may purchase or accept it for recycling or resale. This is especially true if the part is in demand or from a common or high-value model. However, not all wreckers accept individual parts, so it’s worth calling ahead with the part details and condition before bringing it in.
