What our customers say about us

FAQs

How will I receive payment from my van?

We can either pay by bank transfer or cash on collection for your van. We will not leave with the van until you have confirmed that you have received full payment. 

Will you collect my van from anywhere in the UK?

Whether you’re as far south as Cornwall or as far north as John o’Groats, we will collect your van for free from anywhere in the UK. 

Will you buy my van if it has been accident damaged or has serious engine problems?

Yes, we buy accident damaged and broken vans. We will collect your vehicle on a vehicle transporter. 

Can I sell my vehicle to you if it has outstanding finance?

Yes we will buy your van if it has outstanding finance. We will need to see a final value ‘clearance’ letter from your finance company, which is the total amount owing at the time you ask them. Once we have seen this, we will pay the finance company directly and pay you the difference between the outstanding finance and the value of the vehicle. 

Will you buy my van if it my MOT has run out or failed?

Yes, we will buy your van even if it doesn’t have a current MOT certificate. 

Can I sell my van to you if the current V5 logbook isn't in my personal/business name?

No, we will not buy your van if the logbook is in someone else’s name or another business name. We will ask to see proof of ID upon collection. 

Will you buy my van if I have lost my V5 logbook?
Yes, we can still buy your van if you have lost your V5 logbook. The best solution is to type in ‘get a duplicate logbook’ into Google. It will cost you £25 and you should receive a duplicate logbook in your name in a few days.
Do I need to transfer the logbook into your business name when I sell my van to you?

No, we will register the vehicle into trade upon collecting it. This will change the ownership instantly and you will get a proof of changed ownership via email from DVLA. 

What paperwork do I need to give you for my old van?

You will need to give us the full V5 logbook, any MOT certificates you have and any service history you have. This may be in the form of a stamped book or receipts for work carried out. Although not mandatory, it would also be great if you could supply us with the owners manual, spare key and locking wheel nut for your van.

Do I need to remove the signwriting from my van before selling it to you?

No, this is not necessary. Either you can remove it yourself or we will remove it for you after you have sold it us.
