Dundee's Low Emission Zone And Vehicle Scrappage

Following the standards set by Transport Scotland in 2019, Dundee City Council have been taking steps to reduce pollution levels and are proposing for a Dundee low emission zone to be launched.

This change could significantly impact Scottish drivers as charges would need to be put in place to penalise high-emission vehicles for travelling through the low-emission zone.

Additionally, the UK government are looking to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030 to encourage more people to use eco-friendly methods of transport.

Due to these proposed changes, Scrap Local receives enquiries from customers looking to scrap their high-emission vehicles in Dundee.

Luckily, we work with reliable Authorised Treatment Facilities (ATFs) that will ensure that your vehicle is disposed of responsibly.
