Eco-friendly scrapping
Vehicle processing and recycling
The most ecological way to get rid of an old car – legally, with a certificate of deregistration.
Authorised processor
The Ministry of Environment of the Slovak Republic has authorised us to process end-of-life vehicles of categories M1, N1 and L2 (decision No. 110/A/04-6.2). Under Waste Act No. 79/2015 Coll. only an authorised processor may process an end-of-life vehicle.
MŽP SR č. 110/A/04-6.2
Why not an illegal dump
An end-of-life vehicle is hazardous waste because it contains oils, brake and coolant fluids, and airbag and seat-belt pretensioner detonators. Illegal disposal endangers soil and water – and the last holder is responsible for it.
Acceptance conditions
- The vehicle must be complete – at least 90 % of the weight stated in the technical certificate, including engine, catalytic converter, gearbox, body and axles.
- The vehicle does not need to run, does not need a valid MOT or emission check and may be crashed.
- Incomplete vehicles are accepted under § 65(1)(n) of Act No. 79/2015 Coll.
- If the vehicle is complete, towing a non-running vehicle within 25 km of Trnava is free. Other cases by agreement.
- Paperwork is handled after inspecting the vehicle at our yard on working days from 7:00 to 14:30.
- The vehicle must be deregistered within 3 working days of being parked at our yard; after that we charge €6.50 per day.
Documents required at handover
- complete vehicle
- identity card
- registration certificate part I and part II (if issued) and technical certificate
- 2 licence plates
What you get
- 1We record the data in the information system and, if the documents are in order, the vehicle is automatically removed from the central register in Bratislava.
- 2The last holder receives a free certificate of deregistration or of acceptance for processing. The police issue the deregistration protocol based on this certificate.
- 3After deregistration you can cancel the compulsory and comprehensive insurance. If you paid for a longer period, the insurer refunds the overpayment.
Deregistration fails in roughly 5 % of cases for reasons outside our control.
Rather sell it?
We buy vehicles of all brands from model year 2006, including damaged, crashed or non-running ones, and pay immediately on handover.
