Customer Reviews

“My car had been sitting on the driveway for two years after failing its MOT. I called Motor Salvage Group on Monday morning and by Tuesday afternoon it was gone. They paid me the same day and sorted all the paperwork. Could not have been easier. I'll recommend them to everyone in West Lothian.”

Scrapping Your Car the Right Way — Eco-Friendly and Fully Legal in Scotland

When you scrap your car with Motor Salvage Group, you are not just getting rid of an old vehicle. You are doing it the right way.

As an Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF), we follow strict UK and Scottish regulations for vehicle disposal. Every car we collect goes through a proper depollution process. Harmful fluids like engine oil, brake fluid, and coolant are safely removed before recycling begins. This protects the environment and keeps our community clean.

We are also registered with the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA). This means we meet Scotland’s environmental standards at every step. You can scrap your car with full confidence that it will be handled responsibly.

Once your vehicle is processed, we issue a DVLA Certificate of Destruction. This is a legal document that confirms your car has been officially scrapped. It removes the vehicle from your name and means you will never receive a fine or tax reminder for it again.

On average, over 80% of the materials in a modern car can be recycled. Steel, aluminium, plastic, and rubber — all of it is sorted and sent back into the supply chain. Scrapping your car with Motor Salvage Group in Livingston is one of the most eco-friendly things you can do with an old vehicle.
