I had been procrastinating over the disposal of my old BMW for some time, fearing DVLC bureaucracy, dodgy car breakers and other barriers to the whole operation. Having become exasperated by my lack of inertia, my wife found an organisation called Giveacar, a non-profit organisation (www.giveacar.co.uk). All you have to do is email or call them and they will arrange collection and disposal of the vehicle, passing any proceeds to any of the charities they list. I called them on a Friday, they arranged for the car to be picked up by a local breaker who turned up, on time, on Monday. The breaker dealt with the V5 document and within two hours of collection I received an email with a DVLA certificate of destruction attached. I was amazed that this process could be so efficient. Great service, all hassle free with the proceeds going to charity. I commend to your readers.
