Scrap my car in Geddington: how it works

To scrap your car in Geddington, all you need to begin is the registration and your postcode. We look the vehicle up, show you a price on screen and, once you accept, phone you to book a free collection. Nothing is deducted for towing or admin when we arrive.

Geddington is one of the best known villages in this part of Northamptonshire. The Eleanor Cross stands in the middle, the old bridge and ford cross the River Ise, and the Boughton estate lies alongside. It is a short hop from both Corby and Kettering, so plenty of households here run two cars, and older ones tend to linger.

Who do we buy from in Geddington?

Anyone with a vehicle they no longer want. We buy any scrap car, plus vans up to 3.5 tonnes, 4x4s and pickups, at any age and in any condition. Common situations in the village include:

  • A commuter car worn out by daily runs up and down the A43.
  • A spare car that failed its MOT and was never put back on the road.
  • A car that has been parked in a garage or on a drive for years.
  • A car that belonged to an older relative who has stopped driving.
  • A vehicle damaged in an accident or by water near the river.

Each of these has a dedicated Geddington page, linked further down.

How much will I get for my scrap car in Geddington?

Weight is the main factor, because scrap metal is priced per tonne, and the scrap metal market sets the rate on the day. On top of that, the make and model count, along with whether the engine, gearbox, catalytic converter and wheels are still fitted. Keys, a V5C and the car's location all play a part. Our guide to how scrap car prices work explains each one.

We do not list fixed figures, because no two cars are the same. The quickest answer is to get your instant price. It holds as long as the car is complete and as described.

Village streets, the ford and tight spaces

Parts of Geddington have narrow streets and older houses with limited parking, and the ford over the Ise is not a route for a loaded truck. We plan our way in and out before we set off. Our collections are carried out with our own recovery trucks from Rapid Recovery Corby, George Mitchell's recovery business. That gives us beavertail transporters, spec lift tow trucks and a van with dollies and skates for tight corners and low garages.

If the car is in a courtyard, behind a gate or down a shared drive, mention it when we call.

Some people still look for cash for cars. The Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 made it illegal to pay cash for scrap metal, including scrap cars, so anyone offering it is breaking the law. We pay instantly by bank transfer when we collect.

We hold a waste carrier licence and a scrap metal collector's licence. Every vehicle goes to a licensed Authorised Treatment Facility, which issues a Certificate of Destruction and notifies the DVLA. Our step by step guide to scrapping a car covers the full process.

Geddington scrap car services

We also collect from the places around the village, including Kettering, Great Oakley, Grafton Underwood and Brigstock.

Getting ready for collection day

Have photo ID and proof of address ready, as the law requires us to check the seller's name and address. Keep the V5C logbook to hand, and hold on to the yellow slip. If the logbook is lost, see our guide to scrapping a car without a logbook. Clear out your belongings, and if you want to keep a private plate, sort the transfer with the DVLA before we collect.
