What Our Customers Say About Scrapping a Vehicle

4.813 reviewsReviews collected by Feefo

GP Metals and Spares

Scrapping my car was done quickly and efficiently once the transporter found me having been led by his satnav into a village cull-de-sac instead of my gate a few yards further down the main road. May I suggest he uses more modern navigation aids such as Google Maps which would get him to the exact address.
