I will soon have a calssic saloon shell on my drive, on axle stands, ie not rolling. Its bin fodder following a heavy roll. A bit of forward planning and I would not be posting this!

How do I get it moved/lifted off my drive? Will scrap dealers come out with a grabber? I have only ever scrapped a Metro which I drove into a scrap yard and got £75 for it.

 

Call one and ask, but I would think they will charge you £75 to remove it as there is very little profit in it for them, also: You have no choice do you but to get them to come and get it?

 

get away most will pick up for free at the min as the price ov metal is up again

 

I have acrsapped a few cars.. rates are £40 for something rolling (so they can tow). I scrapped an omega about 12 months ago that had no wheels, diff, suspennsion, interior, lights, cylinder heads. They came along with a hiab and took it away for free.

Another option is the get a 9" grinder and chop it into trailer sized bits, scrap it yourself for a few quid

 

Buy a grinder, and disect it!

 

Don't forget some safety goggles or the car may be the least of your worries.

I ended up buying a chain saw to remove 5 trees from my garden other than pay someone else to do it, I guess same idea! My neighbours will love me chopping up a car on my drive!

Cheers for options/advice.

Just do it in reasonable hours and you will be fine.. So no grinding at 7am on a sunday for example Might look pretty but neighbours will not be impressed!
