Car and Metal Recyclers (CMR) is a scrap yard based in Aldershot in Hampshire, southern England. Our services include
scrap car collection, unwanted vehicle collection and vehicle scrapping along with a scrap metal weighbridge, scrap metal skip hire and lead acid battery disposal.
As an Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF) approved by the Department for the Environment, we're one of the south's most well-regarded metal recyclers. Founded as a family business and remaining committed to family
values, we are part of the UCS Group, which was established over 20 years ago and which also includes Aldershot Car Spares, Part Worn Tyre Warehouse and Repairable Vehicles Limited.
We have state-of-the-art facilities and all our staff are highly trained. Our vehicle scrapping service ensures that we achieve the UK government standard of recycling 85% of the scrapped car, thus protecting the
environment.
Why Scrap your car?
The most obvious reason, of course, is that it�s simply stopped working! If your car�s no longer roadworthy and your garage mechanic has told you it's not worth repairing, taking it off the road is the only
responsible and safe thing to do.
And if your car's MOT or car tax has run out, or the insurance has lapsed but you�re keeping it on the road, you're risking more than life and limb you may receive a fine from the DVLA, points on your license
or even be at risk of prosecution.
When you pass on your unwanted car to us for vehicle scrapping, we will pay you the best price around and make sure that it�s disposed of in the most environmentally friendly way possible.

What's this about paperwork?
We know you hate paperwork, so scrapping a car with Car and Metal Recyclers makes it easy. We will notify the DVLA of the vehicle scrapping, and they will update their records. We will give you an official Certificate of
Destruction (CoD). This vital document proves that the vehicle has been destroyed and that you are no longer the registered owner.
Scrap dealers with less integrity than Car and Metal Recyclers may neglect to give you a Certificate of Destruction, then go on to resell a potentially dangerous car, or use it in illegal activities. Without a CoD, you
are still the registered owner and potentially liable.
When Car and Metal Recyclers give you a Certificate of Destruction, it's your guarantee that your scrap car has been recycled to the highest legal and environmental standards, and that you no longer hold responsibility
for it.
