Source page: https://scrapacarscotland.com/scrap-your-car-in-kinross Publisher: Scrap A Car Scotland (https://scrapacarscotland.com) ## Coverage - Region: Fife - Postcode districts: KY13 - Areas and suburbs covered: Milnathort, Kinnesswood, Scotlandwell, Powmill, Crook of Devon - Distance from depot: about 14 miles - Typical collection: usually next working day ## Scrapping a car in Kinross Kinross sits fourteen miles from Thornton straight up the M90, which makes it one of the cheapest areas we serve and one where the quote holds up well against anything in Perth or Fife. Loch Leven side roads and rural driveways are the norm rather than kerbside parking. A long private drive or a gravel yard is no problem if you flag it when booking. ## How we get there Kinross is straight up the M90 and back, fourteen miles each way with no town traffic in between. It is one of the shortest paying runs we do, and the quote reflects that. ## What we collect in Kinross Kinross-shire is commuter country - a lot of second cars, caravan tow vehicles and older 4x4s kept for winter that eventually stop justifying the tax and insurance. Typical collection situations: - Long private drives and gravel turning areas - Loch-side and rural single track roads - Village parking bays in Milnathort - Farm and smallholding hardstanding ## Kinross questions ### Is Kinross close enough for a good price? Very. Fourteen miles up the M90 is one of the cheapest runs we make, and because there is no distance deduction, Kinross quotes tend to beat what a Perth or Edinburgh buyer will offer. ### Can you get down a long gravel drive? Yes, provided there is space to turn or reverse out. Mention the drive length and surface when you book so we send the right unit. ### Do you cover Milnathort, Scotlandwell and Crook of Devon? Yes, all on the same next-day basis as Kinross itself. ### I have an old tow car sitting on the drive. Will you take it? Yes. Tow cars and older 4x4s are common collections here and usually price well because of the extra weight. ### Do you collect scrap cars in Kinross for free? Yes. Collection anywhere in Kinross and the surrounding Fife area is free, and there is no admin charge deducted from your quote. The price we agree on the phone is the price you are paid. ### How quickly can you collect from Kinross? Kinross is about 14 miles from our licensed yard at Thornton in Fife, and collection is usually next working day once you accept the quote. ### Will you buy a non-runner or MOT failure in Kinross? Yes. We buy running and non-running vehicles, MOT failures, accident damage, insurance write-offs and long-term SORN cars. The vehicle does not need to start or move. ### When do I get paid? Same day, by bank transfer, on collection. We never pay cash - that has been illegal for scrap metal in Scotland since 2016, so any dealer offering cash for your car is not operating legally. ### What paperwork do I need in Kinross? Bring the V5C logbook and photo ID. We complete the DVLA notification and issue you a Certificate of Destruction from the Authorised Treatment Facility, so the vehicle is legally off your name. ### What if the car has no V5C logbook? We can still buy it. You need photo ID and proof of address matching the registered keeper, and we notify the DVLA on your behalf. Never sell to anyone in Kinross who says paperwork does not matter - if the vehicle is not properly notified it stays your legal responsibility. ### Can you collect if the car is off-road or has no keys? Yes. Our recovery units winch vehicles with flat tyres, seized brakes, dead batteries or no keys. Just tell us when you book so the right truck is sent to Kinross rather than a standard transporter. ### Does someone need to be there for the collection? Someone over 18 needs to be present to hand over the V5C and ID, but it does not have to be you. If you have already left Kinross, we can arrange it with a nominated person and still pay the registered keeper by transfer. ### Do you charge anything if I change my mind? No. There is no cancellation fee and no call-out charge. If your plans change before the truck leaves for Kinross, tell us and we will rebook or cancel with nothing to pay. ### Can I get a road tax refund after scrapping in Kinross? Yes. Once we notify the DVLA, any full remaining months of vehicle tax are refunded automatically to the registered keeper, and any direct debit is cancelled at the same time. ### Do you take vans and 4x4s in Kinross as well as cars? Yes. Cars, vans, pickups, 4x4s, light commercials, motorhomes, hybrids and electric vehicles are all collected on the same free basis across Kinross. ## About the publisher - Business: Scrap A Car Scotland (SCRAP A CAR SCOTLAND.COM LIMITED, company number SC535292) - Phone: 0330 123 0112 - Email: info@scrapacarscotland.com - Depot: Strathore Road, Thornton, Fife KY1 4DF - Opening hours: Monday to Saturday, 08:00 to 18:00 - Area served: Scotland - Licensing: SEPA licensed Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF) - Collection: Free, anywhere in Scotland.
