Title: Weighing in a car?
Post by: Mighty_zuke on April 28, 2008, 16:28:57

What do I have to do to take my dead vitara (RIP) to be weighed in?

Any advice appreciated

Regards

Mike

EMR in kettering ask for the Tyres and Battery off and you need the log book so they can supply a certificate of destruction

we weighed 2 cars in last year - both were driven in...the 1st had the engine ripped out while it was still running....they are very accurate with those grabs!

Local place near  me just accepts the cars as they stand. If you dont have the logbook then some form of ID is needed.

its tyres and battery off here too.  i think they tried to charge 1.50 per tyre if you left them on.

Im surprised they wont take the batteries. Theres a market for scrap batteries. Guy comes round to my work and pays us 50p a battery to take them away.
