Where we collect in Crewkerne
We collect across TA18: Crewkerne town, Merriott, Misterton, Hinton St George, Haselbury Plucknett, North Perrott and the lanes between the A30 and A356. Rural collections are routine for us; the driver calls about an hour before arriving.
Every collection in Crewkerne is free. Non-runners, MOT failures, accident damage, cars with no keys and cars that have sat for years: if a flatbed can reach it, we collect it at no cost, and you choose the day when you book.
Our buyers covering TA18 include GP Metals & Spares, a licensed car recycler about 50 minutes away in Weymouth that dismantles cars for parts rather than just weighing them in. Which buyer collects depends on who gives you the best price for your car; every one is a licensed car recycler, and you get a Certificate of Destruction either way. We don’t pass you to the yard: you deal with us from quote to payment.
- Local Insight
Working cars in Crewkerne
Crewkerne is a small town with a lot of practical cars: diesel estates, small vans and the odd 4×4 from the farms around it. Those cars tend to run until a big bill arrives, and the ones we collect are usually high-mileage diesels with an injector, DPF or clutch fault rather than a rusted shell. High-mileage diesels are good parts cars; the engine, turbo, gearbox and body panels all have buyers. Older petrol runabouts from the town itself are the other half of what we see, and for those the price is driven by the catalytic converter, alloys and condition of the interior.
