What documents do I need to scrap my vehicle?

You'll need your vehicle's Registration Certificate (RC), insurance documents, PAN card, and address proof. Assistance is available if any documents are missing.

How much will I get for my old vehicle?

The scrap value depends on the vehicle type, make, model, age, condition, and weight. You can generally expect up to 4% of your vehicle's value.

Do you pick up non-running vehicles?

Yes, non-running and accident vehicles can be picked up at no extra cost.

How long does the scrapping process take?

The scrapping process usually takes 3–5 business days from pickup to completing payment and issuing certificates.

What happens to my vehicle after scrapping?

The vehicle is dismantled using eco-friendly methods. Hazardous materials are removed safely and up to 90% of the materials are recycled. The vehicle is then permanently deregistered from RTO records.

Can I scrap a vehicle that's not in my name?

Yes, but you will need proper authorization from the registered owner, including a notarized authorization letter, original RC, and identity proofs of both parties.

Why should I choose an authorized RVSF?

Only government-authorized Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facilities (RVSFs) can legally issue the Certificate of Deposit (COD) and Certificate of Vehicle Scrapping (CVS). Their processes are monitored through official platforms like Vahan for legal compliance and customer safety.

You can scrap your car by visiting a government-authorized vehicle scrapping facility. They handle inspection, deregistration, dismantling, and issuing the Certificate of Vehicle Scrapping.

What are the benefits of scrapping an old car?

Scrapping an old car reduces pollution, provides financial returns, may qualify you for tax rebates, and ensures materials are recycled in an eco-friendly manner.

What is vehicle recycling?

Vehicle recycling involves dismantling end-of-life vehicles to reuse, resell, or recycle components and materials in an environmentally responsible way.

What is the scrap value of a car?

The scrap value of a car depends on its weight, age, condition, and prevailing metal prices. Quotes are usually based on current fair-market scrap rates.

What documents do you need to scrap a car?

To scrap a car, you typically need the vehicle's RC, owner ID proof, address proof, and a signed consent form. Authorized facilities guide you through all paperwork based on government norms.
