Keep Kent Green By Scrapping Your Car

Air pollution levels are becoming more severe across the UK, and it’s clear that high-emission vehicles contribute a significant amount of CO2 and NO2 pollutants.

Recognised as the Garden of England due to its numerous hop gardens and plentiful orchards, several measures are expected to be implemented to monitor pollution levels across Kent.

Kent County Council must address air pollution levels under the Clean Air Act and work hard to educate people on reducing harmful vehicle emissions.

However, more severe plans like the proposed ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars have led more people to consider scrapping their high-emission vehicles across Kent.

Luckily, Scrap Local remove all kinds of car for scrap and work with trusted Authorised Treatment Facilities (ATFs) to ensure that end-of-life vehicles are adequately recycled throughout Kent.

Do I need to tell DVLA that I've scrapped my car?,

DVLA are strict when it comes to scrap car disposal and you will need to inform them about scrapping your car with an Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF).

Thankfully, Scrap Local is proud to partner with and connect customers to ATFs who scrap cars in accordance with specified procedures.

If you need to contact DVLA about your vehicle, then you can do so without any hassle through their online form.

You will need to supply the following information to do this successfully:

  • 11 digit reference number from section 4 or 9 of your V5C (the yellow slip)
  • Your vehicle’s REG
  • Name and address of the ATF your vehicle is being taken to

Make sure that you ask the removal agent for the name and address of the ATF they will be taking your car or van to.

It’s also a good idea to make a note of the agent’s contact details in case you need to get in touch with them.
