Frequently asked questions

Junk yard

Can you collect my car?

Yes, we will pick up your car for free. Our trucks meet all the environmental requirements, so we can even pick up your car in a city center. Call us to make an appointment, then we will pick up your car as soon as possible.

Do you buy scrap cars?

Yes, all cars eligible for scrapping are welcome at our facility. This is the case if your car has been declared ‘total loss’ (technically or economically), if it has been rejected for the PTI (Periodic Technical Inspection) and can only be repaired at high cost, if the costs for repair are higher than the value of the car, if the car has driven more than 200,000 km or if the car is 20 years or older.

Are you not sure wether your car should be scrapped or sold? Contact us via info@autosloperijdepopulier.nl or call us on 010 – 421 6500. We can give you advice immediately.

Do I need to make an appointment to bring my car or scooter?

No, if you bring a car or scooter during our opening hours, you are always welcome. If you can only come by outside of our opening hours, you do need to make an appointment. Of course, we can also pick up your vehicle. Call us on 010 - 421 6500, so we can determine what is most convenient.

My car cannot be repaired, what can I do?

Unfortunately, every vehicle has a limited lifespan. If your car (or van, motorcycle, caravan or scooter) can no longer be repaired, you can bring it to us or let us pick it up. We will make sure that your vehicle is dismantled and disposed of in an environmentally friendly way.

How do I know if my car needs to be scrapped or if it can still be sold?

This really depends on the type of car you have and therefore we cannot give you a standard answer. It's best to give us a call (010 - 421 6500), then we can provide you with the right advice immediately.

Can I hand in my car without registration papers?

Yes, you can. As long as you can identify yourself, we can always give you a certificate of indemnification. This certificate is important because otherwise you remain responsible for paying insurances and taxes for the car.

Can I bring someone else's car, if the owner doesn't come along?

That's possible if the registration certificate is complete. Otherwise, the persons who brings the car needs to show proof of identification.

I lost my registrations papers, what must I do now?

We can still clear your vehicle, even if your registration papers are lost.

Can I keep the license plate of my old car to hang it up somewhere?

Unfortunately, this is not possible. We are required to destroy license plates to prevent fraud.

How much money do I get for my car/scooter?

For a car, this depends on the type of car you have. It is best to contact us by phone.

For a scooter, unfortunately, you do not get a refund. If you bring a scooter to us, you will have to pay processing fees. If you bring it yourself, it will cost €15, if we pick it up, it will cost €50.

Car parts

Which car parts can I find at a junk yard?

You can come to us for any car parts you can think of, such as tires, batteries, engine covers, headlights, turning signals, mirrors, seats, a steering wheel, side windows, rear windows, windshield wipers, windshield washers, windshields, windshields, an exhaust, etc.

Do you sell car parts?

Yes, we have more than 900 cars on our premises from which you can take parts. We work on a self-service basis, which means that you must disassemble parts yourself. Therefore, bring your tools with you!

Do you sell car tires and batteries?

Yes, we always have car tires and batteries available. Please feel free to stop by!

Can you disassemble the part for me?

We chose to not store parts separately, but to leave them on the car. Once in a while, we replace the cars so that we always have as many parts in stock as possible. You need to disassemble the parts yourself.

Do I have warranty on the part or can I return it?

No, there is no warranty on parts, but you may test the part before you buy it.

You don't have the part, where can I find it?

We are located in an area with several junkyards. Chances are you can find the part at one of the companies nearby.

Can I borrow tools?

Yes, we have tools that can be borrowed. Unfortunately, this supply does diminish every day because not everything is returned. If you want to make sure you can loosen a part, it's best to bring your own tools.

Can you order parts for me?

No, if we don't have a part, we can refer you to one of the other junkyards. We know these companies well, so we can make a pretty good assessment of where best to go.

Can I reserve parts?

No, we do not reserve parts.

Can I bring loose tires to you for free?

You can always return loose tires to us. You will have to pay €2.50 per tire though, because we also have to pay a fee to dispose of them. You will receive a refund for aluminum/alloy rims. Call us for more information on 010 - 421 6500.

Occasions / Second-hand cars

Can you call me when the car I am looking for comes in?

This is possible, but in reality this is often forgotten, especially if the car takes a little longer to arrive. Therefore, we recommend that you contact us yourself on a regular basis.

How do I know if party X is offering me a good price for my car?

For this, you need comparison material. We therefore recommend that you contact several companies.

What should I pay attention to when selling my car?

The most important thing is to get a certificate of indemnification from the RDW, so that the car is off your name and you are no longer responsible for damages, taxes and fines. Do not ever sell a car without this certificate!

What should I pay attention to when buying a second-hand car?
Can I sell my car to you?

Yes, you can. Please come by or send us pictures, so we can tell you immediately what the value is.

Do you sell cars and/or scooters?

Yes, we regularly have second-hand cars and/or scooters for sale.

Can I reserve a car?

Yes you can. First, you have to make a down payment. Then, we will agree on a deadline for you to pick up the car.

General

Are you open on Sundays?

No, even though we enjoy our work immensely, we also need time to rest and do other things. That is why we are closed on Sundays.

Can I pay by credit card?

No, you can only pay by debet card or cash, or by direct transfer.

Do I immediately receive a certificate of indemnification?

Yes. When we pick up your car or scooter or when you bring it in, we will always issue a certificate of indemnification immediately.

Is it possible to do a photo shoot or make a video on your premises?

Unfortunately, this is not possible. This interferes with our normal operations, and because of the nature of the work and the materials we work with, it can lead to dangerous situations.

Do you do sponsorship?

Yes, we sponsor several racing classes, including stockcar F1.

Do you do car or scooter repairs?

We do not perform repairs of cars or scooters ourselves, but cooperate with reliable partners for this purpose.

Do you change tires?

No, unfortunately we do not do this. We sell the tires loose, without the rim. That way, you can easily have them mounted at your local garage.

Do you collect scrap iron?

Yes, we collect scrap iron, but it depends greatly on what you have. Call us for more information at 010 - 421 6500.
