When you contact us, we will explain the next steps to you. Usually your vehicle can be collected within a week. We will keep you informed and let you know what the sale of your vehicle has made for Oxfam.
About Charity Car
Charity Car is the big-hearted scheme from the UK's largest car recycling network, that allows you to turn your old car into a cash donation for charity. By choosing Charity Car, 100% of the market value of your scrap car will be donated to Oxfam. You can choose whether to deliver your old car to a local CarTakeBack recycling centre, or to make things really easy, we'll collect it from you free!
It'll be recycled responsibly, so you can be reassured there'll be no harm to the environment.
We'll also help you to complete the necessary DVLA paperwork and issue your DVLA Certificate of Destruction, so you can prove your car has been recycled legally.
So what are you waiting for? Help Oxfam fund its invaluable work fighting poverty around the world.
