There are plenty of people who have no idea how to get rid of their old cars. Some people sell it as it is while others make it look as good as new before selling it. There are a few who give it away to charitable institutions, close friends, or relatives. There are also some who believe it is best to scrap your car for the best price.

Sell

There are several online sites where you can sell your used car. These sites suggest a selling price once you provide all the necessary information. You only need to enter the car registration and mileage. Keep in mind that the system does not consider car issues when suggesting a price. You can also advertise your car for about £10 to £20.

Give away

You can also choose to give your old car to organizations that will donate the money from your car to charity. They either re-sell the car or scrap it for money. There are several organizations that are easy to find online.

Scrap

It is now easy to find a scrapping company to come to collect your car and give you money for it. Make sure you check if they are a registered scrap dealer and they have a certificate. The scrapping company should issue a cheque or pay through the bank. It is illegal to pay cash for scrap cars. Make proper research before you choose where to sell your car for scrapping. Any car sent for scrapping should go to an Authorized Treatment Facility. Confirm if the scrapping company will send you a Certificate of Destruction.

No matter how you decide to get rid of your car, avoid becoming a victim of some rogue. Some people buy a car and leave you liable for speeding tickets and fines.
