What to Tell DVLA When You Scrap a Car

Scrapping a vehicle involves more than handing over the keys. You must make sure the vehicle's disposal is recorded correctly and keep any confirmation.

Important checks

Use official DVLA guidance for the correct notification route, including the distinction between selling or transferring a vehicle and having it destroyed by an authorised treatment facility.

Before you make a decision

Ask the collector where the vehicle will go and who will issue any Certificate of Destruction where applicable. Keep a record of the collection date and the receiving business.
