Documents required for vehicle scrapping: Vehicle license; Vehicle registration certificate; License plates; For company vehicles, the organization code certificate (copy) with the official seal; For personal vehicles, the owner must bring their ID card; Proof materials for accident vehicles; For company vehicles, the official seal must be affixed on the "Motor Vehicle Deregistration Application Form" and "Scrapped Vehicle Certificate" (consistent with the name on the license), while personal vehicle owners must sign. Motor vehicle scrapping process: The owner applying for scrapping and renewal must fill out one copy of the "Motor Vehicle Alteration, Transfer, Modification, Suspension, and Scrapping Approval Application Form" and affix their seal. Apply at the registration acceptance counter, where a "Vehicle Scrapping Notice" will be issued for vehicles that have reached the scrapping age. For vehicles that have not reached the scrapping age, the motor vehicle inspection counter will determine if they meet the scrapping standards and issue a "Scrapping Notice" if applicable. The owner chooses a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle with the "Notice". The recycling company will dismantle the vehicle and take photos after verifying the "Notice". The engine must be separated from the vehicle, the engine block must be broken, and the frame (chassis) must be cut. The owner submits the "Alteration Form", "XX Province Vehicle Renewal Technical Appraisal Form", "Scrapped Vehicle Recycling Certificate", and photos of the dismantled vehicle to the motor vehicle inspection counter for verification and signature. The license plates and certificates are then reclaimed, and the scrapping registration is processed according to regulations after approval.
I recently scrapped an old car, and the whole process went quite smoothly. You need to bring the original ID card of the vehicle owner along with a copy—don't forget the copy as it can save you a lot of time. The original vehicle license must also be brought, as well as the green motor vehicle registration certificate, which records all the car's information. The license plates need to be removed and handed over to the recycling center. I went to a certified recycling company, made an appointment by phone in advance, filled out a scrapping application form, and the whole process took about two hours. Some places might also require the car insurance policy, but it wasn't needed in my case. After scrapping, they'll give you a deregistration certificate to ensure the car no longer involves any legal liabilities. It's advisable to go early to avoid peak hours. Disposing of old cars is crucial for environmental protection, reducing pollution emissions, and freeing up parking space. Recycling companies usually offer free towing, but it's best to confirm in advance.
