Win-Win

Initiated request on Thursday. Confirmed on Friday. Car gone on Monday. And 300 quid in the pocket when I thought I was going to have to pay someone to take it away. Win-Win

CarTakeBack was so easy to use

CarTakeBack was so easy to use, the whole process was done online, the collection was easy and the certificate of destruction came within a few days. This is my 3rd time using this company and highly recommend them.
