4 Simple Steps · Complete Your Vehicle Scrapping with Ease
With NW Motors, you just need to lift a finger — we handle all the tedious procedures for you. Can be completed on the same day at the earliest — fully compliant with no worries!
Step 1: Online Quote
Use our online system or directly WhatsApp us your vehicle details (brand, model, year of manufacture, condition photos). We will provide you with a precise, high recycling quote as quickly as possible.
Step 2: Schedule Time & Location
Once both parties agree on the price, you can specify the handover time and location (whether a residential car park, roadside or garage), and we will arrange a dedicated tow truck for free on-site pickup.
Step 3: On-Site Handover & Payment
Upon arrival, the tow truck driver will verify documents on the spot. Once confirmed, cash or bank transfer payment for the vehicle will be made immediately, and you will be issued a legally effective "Certificate of Destruction" (commonly known as the Scrapping Certificate).
Step 4: Cancel Vehicle Registration (Deregistration)
The car owner must bring the Scrapping Certificate, original vehicle registration document, and other documents to a Transport Department Licensing Office within 15 days of scrapping to complete the vehicle registration cancellation procedure.
Essential Document Checklist for Vehicle Scrapping Handover
On the day of handover, please prepare the following documents to ensure all processes are completed smoothly and quickly:
| Vehicle Registration Document (Original) Required | Commonly known as the "Registration Book". The original is required for verification and registration. After completion, it will be returned together with the Scrapping Certificate or used for deregistration. |
|---|---|
| Vehicle Licence (Original) Required | Commonly known as the "Road Licence". If the road licence has not yet expired (with 60 days or more remaining), this document can be used to apply for a refund of the remaining licence fee from the Transport Department. |
| Car Owner's HKID Copy Required | Used solely to verify the car owner's identity, ensuring the vehicle disposal is legal and compliant. Never disclosed externally. |
| Car Keys Required | All spare keys for the vehicle — hand over to the towing specialist at the time of vehicle handover. |
Important Notes for Car Owners on Vehicle Scrapping
Long-Term Parked Vehicles (Dead/Broken Down)
If your vehicle has been parked long-term in a car park and cannot be started, please state this in advance when contacting us. NW Motors owns a dedicated multi-function towing fleet — no matter how cramped or narrow the car park, or whether the vehicle is dead with seized brakes, we can handle it flawlessly.
Lost Original Registration Book (How to Replace)
If you have accidentally lost the Vehicle Registration Document (Registration Book) or Road Licence, please don't worry. The NW Motors professional team can assist you in conducting a proper scrapping valuation based on the chassis number, and guide you on how to apply for a replacement and same-day cancellation of registration with the Transport Department.
Chassis Number Identification Disputes
In cases of special disputes such as blurred vehicle identification numbers or suspected modifications, we will provide guidance in accordance with Hong Kong's environmental and safety dismantling regulations, proposing the most legal dispute-resolution approach for the car owner to protect their registered name and records.
Statutory Time Limit for Deregistration
Hong Kong law requires that the car owner must bring the Scrapping Certificate to an official Transport Department Licensing Office to complete the registration cancellation procedure within 15 days of signing the scrapping transaction. Do not miss the deadline to ensure your registration liability and privacy security.
