Do I need to be present for collection in Newcastle upon Tyne?
No. You can nominate someone else to hand over the keys and paperwork, provided they're over 18 and bring valid photo ID and proof of address, in line with the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013.
Can I scrap a car in Newcastle upon Tyne without a V5C logbook?
Yes. If your V5C is missing, note this when you accept your quote — our collection team will confirm what alternative proof of ownership is needed on the day.
Will scrapping my car help me avoid the Newcastle and Gateshead CAZ charge?
Only if you drive a taxi, private hire vehicle, van, bus, coach or HGV — private cars and motorcycles are never charged in the Newcastle and Gateshead CAZ, so there's no CAZ-related saving from scrapping a private car specifically.
