If you’ve spent any time at all on Brisbane cash for cars website, you’ll already know that one of our most popular services is scrapping cars. Around half million cars are scrapped in Australia each year and for many people it remains by far the most sensible financial option. We thought it would be a good idea to take a look at everything you need to take into account when scrapping your car. Of course, we’d always recommend picking up the phone and giving us a call 0451 770 088, but if you just want to find out a little bit more about the whole process, keep reading. This is one of the most important legal requirements involved in car scrapping: indeed, you can be prosecuted for scrapping your vehicle using a non-licensed firm! Auto dismantling licences are issued by the Queensland government transport agency and you can get information on the relevant processes from both bodies. We at Brisbane wreckers are proud to be a licensed truck dismantlers. If it was your insurance company that decided to write the car off rather than you, you’ll need to complete the ‘Notification of sale or transfer’ section of the registration certificate before sending it in to the TMR. Keep the rest of the certificate, as on some occasions your insurance company may ask you to send the rest to them for verification purposes. If your insurance firm is scrapping the car, you need to make sure they don’t dispose it until the registration plate has been transferred. Once this has been done, the insurance firm should then issue a letter confirming that they’re happy to either transfer or retain the number. (You should also receive a copy of the engineer’s report confirming the vehicle’s details). This is quite a lot to remember, so if at any point it seems a bit much, remember you can easily get hold of the TMR at their home page here. And, of course, if you’ve got any more questions about scrapping a car, give our friendly team a call today on 0451 770 088. We’ll help take care of the whole process for you.
