What is the vehicle scrapping process?

Vehicle scrapping process: 1. The vehicle owner must bring their ID, vehicle registration certificate, vehicle license, and license plate to the vehicle dismantling plant's business department to fill out an application form, then wait for notification at the license management counter for fee payment and plate collection; 2. Apply at the registration acceptance counter, where a notice will be issued for vehicles that have reached the scrapping age. For vehicles not yet at the scrapping age, the vehicle inspection counter will verify if they meet the scrapping standards and issue a notice; 3. The vehicle owner chooses a qualified recycling company to dismantle the vehicle as per the notice; 4. The recycling company checks the notice, dismantles the vehicle, and takes photos, ensuring the engine is separated from the vehicle, the engine block is broken, and the chassis is cut; 5. The owner submits the change form, appraisal form, recycling certificate, and dismantling photos to the vehicle inspection counter for verification and signature. The license is then recycled, and the scrapping registration is processed after approval.
When I feel that my vehicle is completely scrapped, I choose the formal process to handle it. First, I contact a qualified scrap recycling company because they can assess the vehicle's condition. I need to prepare the original documents such as my ID card, driving license, and vehicle registration certificate to submit an application. The company will arrange a free tow truck to take the car away to a designated dismantling plant. There, workers disassemble reusable parts like the battery and tires for recycling, while the remaining metal frame is crushed and smelted for recovery. The entire process is environmentally friendly and avoids pollution. Afterward, the company handles the vehicle deregistration on my behalf, ensuring that legally it is no longer my responsibility. Remember to request a deregistration certificate as proof to prevent future disputes. The entire process usually takes one to two weeks, and choosing a reliable company can save trouble. Avoid selling the scrap car privately, as it may lead to fines or risks. Doing so is not only safe and efficient but also supports resource recycling, achieving multiple benefits at once.
