What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Drivers looking to dispose of a vehicle, as well as those needing used parts such as alloy wheels, describe a straightforward process. Several customers highlight the speed of collection, with vehicles picked up on the same day a quote was given and often within an hour of filling in an online form, while the handover itself is repeatedly said to take only a short time.

Payment is described as immediate, with funds transferred before the driver leaves or arriving in a matter of hours, and the amount agreed is said to match or exceed expectations. Clear explanations and helpful advice recur, particularly for those scrapping a car for the first time, and named member of staff Dino receives praise for going beyond what customers expected. Reviewers also mention the tidy condition of the yard and the professional manner in which engines and other parts are removed and supplied.

A point made in several accounts is the friendly, hassle-free nature of the transaction, from the initial phone call through to the collection itself, with the online quotation process singled out as simple to use. Staff are called fantastic and helpful, and both scrap collections and the sale of second-hand components are handled without complications.

I can’t put into words how much of a blessing it was finding this place. I spent 2 hours working my way through a list of places to buy a couple of alloy wheels from after curbing my car dodging a fox on a dark road. I was seriously starting to think I’d never find anywhere but thankfully I found End of Life and my prayers were answered. Dino goes above and beyond for his customers and I will advise everyone to take their business to him. He’s a great person and will do anything to help people. An absolute gentleman

What an excellent service I received from Dino, I needed a complete spare tyre with alloys for my daughters 1st car. I called End Of life Yard spoke to Dino he was so professional told me he had the complete spare and to pop over and hell see if it fits . when i arrived i have never been to a scrapyard for over 35 years , Dino jacked my car up tried the spare showed me it fits and even secured it in the boot and a bonus gave me complete set to jack and brace for the car as I didn't have one, I was not expected this level of service from a scrap dealer. I would highly recommend going there to anyone. thank you Dino

Arrived an hour after initial phone call, chap loaded car and money was in bank before he tied down car and drove off. He explained what they would do paperwork wise and all I needed to do was cancel insurance. Very efficient and would highly recommend πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘
