How to Scrap a Vehicle?
2 Answers
The vehicle owner must bring their identity document, vehicle registration certificate, vehicle license, and license plate to the vehicle dismantling factory's business department to fill out the required forms. Apply at the registration and acceptance counter, where a notice will be issued for vehicles that have reached the scrapping age. The vehicle owner, holding the notice, can choose a qualified recycling company to send the vehicle for dismantling. After verifying the notice, the recycling company will dismantle the vehicle and take photos. The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame must be cut. The vehicle owner, holding the change form, etc., will have it checked and signed by the vehicle inspection counter. The license plates and certificates will be reclaimed, and the scrapping registration will be processed according to regulations after approval.
I just scrapped my old car, which I had used for over a decade. The repair costs ended up being higher than the car's value, and I couldn't take it anymore. I found a licensed dismantling company online, and they arranged for a free tow truck to pick it up. When filling out the application form, don’t forget to bring your ID card and the vehicle registration certificate. Then, head to the DMV to complete the deregistration process. Once you receive the scrapping certificate, the license plate becomes invalid, saving you future tax and fee hassles. The whole process took just two days. The dismantling company handles hazardous components like batteries and engine oil, ensuring it’s eco-friendly and safe. After scrapping, I felt much more at ease, and getting a new car registered was easier too. If your car is too old or has been in multiple accidents, don’t push it—scrapping it in time is better for your wallet and schedule. Delaying will only lead to more problems.
