Vehicle Recycling Across Reading
The coronavirus pandemic and rising concerns towards global warming have made air pollution a hot-button issue in most UK towns and cities.
Low emission and clean air zones are beginning to appear across the UK and it’s highly likely that the sale of new petrol and diesel cars will be banned by 2030.
Reading itself is part of the London ULEZ where motorists of high emission vehicles are charged a daily fee to travel through this designated area!
Due to these changes more motorists from places like Reading are transitioning to electric vehicles and are looking to recycle their old cars and vans.
Luckily, Scrap Local works with Authorised Treatment Facilities (ATFs) who can remove vehicles without any hassle and dispose of them safely.
