Car Scrapping In Singapore: The Basics

Singapore’s car scrapping follows a regulated framework requiring deregistration and dismantling of a vehicle that has reached the end of its usable life or when an owner decides to dispose of it.

Car Scrapping Explained

Car scrapping is the formal deregistration and dismantling of a vehicle. LTA regulates this process to ensure proper vehicle disposal and environmental protection. When a car is scrapped, it’s delivered to an LTA-appointed yard like SG Car Scrap, and dismantled with parts recycled or properly disposed.

Vehicle Deregistration: Legal Requirements

To deregister a vehicle in Singapore, owners have three main options: scrapping at an authorized scrapyard, temporarily storing it in an Export Processing Zone (EPZ), or exporting it. The legal requirements for vehicle deregistration include proper documentation, verification of vehicle ownership, and adherence to environmental disposal regulations. Using a professional dealer like SG Car Scrap simplifies this process, adding value beyond basic rebates, cutting out complex paperwork, and ensuring immediate payment upon vehicle handover.

It’s important to understand that Singapore car scrapping is highly regulated. Specific LTA requirements govern the process. SG Car Scrap, being an LTA-appointed scrapyard, manages scrapping efficiently and compliantly.

Selecting SG Car Scrap, you enjoy a smooth experience. The company handles the necessary paperwork, and you receive instant payment at handover. That’s far simpler than doing it yourself, which often demands self-delivery and waiting for rebate processing.

How SG Car Scrap Works: Our Simple Process

At SG Car Scrap, we’ve streamlined scrapping to keep it simple and efficient. Our goal is to provide you with a hassle-free experience from start to finish.

Step One: Request A Quote

Start by requesting a scrap car quote. Call, WhatsApp your details, or submit our online form. We’ll assess your details and provide a deregistration quote.

Step 2: Evaluation

Our team will conduct a thorough evaluation of your vehicle, looking at condition, remaining COE, PARF eligibility, and market trends. This helps ensure a fair, competitive quote. We pride ourselves on transparent evaluations that consider all value factors.

Step 3: Handover & Immediate Payment

When you’re happy with the quote, visit our scrapyard to hand over the vehicle. We’ll verify documents, complete deregistration paperwork, and pay you immediately via your preferred method. The entire handover process is designed to be efficient, taking as little as 15-20 minutes.

Singapore Car Scrap Value: What Determines It

In Singapore, the scrap value of a car is calculated based on several important components. Knowing these factors is key when scrapping your car.

COE Rebate: How It Works

COE rebate plays a major role in your scrap value. COE rebates apply to all vehicles with remaining COE validity. The rebate is calculated based on the original COE premium paid and the unused period of the COE at the time of deregistration.

  • Applies if there’s remaining COE
  • The rebate amount depends on the unused COE period
  • Claim within 12 months of deregistering

PARF Rebate: Calculation Guide

PARF rebate is another key component. PARF rebates are available for vehicles less than 10 years old, calculated as a percentage of the ARF paid at first registration.

The PARF rebate calculation considers the age of the vehicle at the time of deregistration. Newer age typically yields higher PARF.

What Else Impacts Scrap Value

Beyond COE/PARF, other factors affect scrap value. Factors include condition, parts demand, scrap metal pricing, and salvageable components.

At SG Car Scrap, our experienced team provides expert evaluation services so you can time scrapping for maximum value.

When you understand the value factors, you’ll make better decisions on when to scrap. SG Car Scrap is committed to providing you with a hassle-free experience and competitive pricing for your scrap car.
