Auto Recycling Across Accrington

Climate change is a growing problem in Lancashire, and several steps have been implemented to reduce air pollution nationally.

In 2030 the sale of new petrol and diesel cars will be banned across the UK as it’s been proven that vehicles that rely heavily on fossil fuels are a leading contributor to air pollution in towns like Accrington.

Additionally, clean air zones appear in major cities like Manchester to encourage more people to transition to electric vehicles through various charges.

Understandably, more motorists from Accrington are looking to scrap their high-emission vehicles due to these changes, and at Scrap Local, we’re happy to help.
