Continuation of the trend related to the disposal procedure Vehicle, defined at the state level, is a priority for the near future. The programs found their support in the Ministry of Industry and Trade. Car recycling is carried out with the allocation of budget funds, which is one of the ways to support the domestic automobile industry.
Not only domestic vehicle manufacturers, but also their owners are interested in carrying out such work.

Car recycling: general information

State proposal to replace domestic automobile brands with a long service life with new transport, with the application of a discount, is a fairly advantageous offer for people interested in updating their own equipment.
The main condition for such an exchange is the acquisition of only that four-wheeled friend that was produced in Russia. The list of brands that became participants in the Russian program was prepared by the Ministry of Industry and Trade. The authority has defined a number of requirements that a vehicle to be exchanged must meet. Among these:
weight, which should not exceed 3.5 tons, which indicates that the vehicle is classified as a passenger vehicle;
date of issue, not later than 1999;
the applicant has had ownership of the vehicle for more than a year.
The final requirement should become a reason to suppress attempts to purchase used cars by resellers in order to obtain illegal profits. To implement the planned activities, about 11 billion budget funds were allocated. In just 10 months of this year, thanks to the recycling program, 200 thousand cars were purchased.

Car recycling program in 2017

The second stage of the program related to the disposal of obsolete cars produced by domestic enterprises was planned for the period 2014-2016. The offer period has been extended into 2017.
Legislation regulating the procedure for holding this event is posted in official legislative sources. The funds allocated to ensure that auto recycling takes place will allow for the introduction of innovative technologies, as well as the implementation of the latest projects.
The state program will become the basis for improving the work of Russian enterprises producing vehicles. Their low economic performance in past periods was justified by the lack of sufficient demand for products. The program will end only when the established amount of funding is exhausted.
In 2017, the owner who has:
there is a vehicle manufactured no earlier than 6 years ago;
vehicles are owned for a period of time last year;
have Russian citizenship;
an agreement has been concluded with a dealer, the cost of whose services is within 10 thousand rubles;
who is a natural or legal person;
intentions have been expressed to purchase Russian-made cars (including cars or trucks).

The main conditions for receiving a discount on the purchase of a new vehicle are:
full package of a car to be scrapped;
receiving a discount certificate only once and only for one vehicle;
preventing the disposal of vehicles produced less than 6 years ago.

What does the Federal Law say?



At the state level, there is no direct law that would fully regulate the entire procedure associated with obtaining a discount on the purchase of a new car.
These relationships are regulated by:
Federal Law “On Environmental Protection” dated January 10, 2002 No. 7-FZ;
Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated August 26, 2006 No. 524 (as amended on February 15, 2011) “On approval of the Regulations on licensing activities for the collection, use, neutralization, transportation, and disposal of waste of I-IV hazard class”;
Federal Law “On production and consumption waste” dated June 24, 1998 No. 89-FZ;
Decrees of the Government of the Russian Federation “On state registration motor vehicles and other types of self-propelled equipment on the territory Russian Federation» No. 938 dated 08/12/1994
There are a number of local regulations, the use of which allows the procedure to be carried out legally.
On the legislative side, the rules, terms and procedure for implementing measures related to the termination of rights to one object of movement and obtaining a significant discount on the purchase of another are determined.

Program conditions

The current offer is an excellent way to replace an outdated model with a more updated and modern car using a discount provided by the government. It is important to understand that the proposal will cease to be relevant from the moment the funds provided for by government documents are completely exhausted. That is why you should think about submitting an application today.

Which cars are eligible for recycling?

The current procedure is the possibility of purchasing new cars that are produced by various manufacturers operating in Russia. The official document identifies specific car brands that are sold using a discount. The list contains a number of domestic and foreign cars.
The Russian model range includes cars produced by:
AvtoVAZ;
UAZ;
GAS.
Among foreign vehicles, manufacturers Kia and SsangYong were noted. Hyundai, Fiat, Scoda, Chevrolet, Opel, Renault, which are represented by 2-4 models. The event is also held in relation to trade-in.
Compensation payments may vary depending on the condition of the object, its brand, and type.

How much money can you get for a scrapped car?

The funds that are provided to the owner who has fulfilled the recycling conditions are a discount that is given to the latter for the purchase of a new “four-wheeled friend.”

50 thousand rubles for the purchase of a car;
90 thousand rubles, when completing a transaction with SUVs;
350 thousand rubles for the purchase of a truck.

Duration of the program

The government planned to carry out events over 3 years, from 2014 to 2016. Due to the fact that the money was not used in full during this period, it was ordered to launch the second stage of the program, which will begin at the beginning of 2017.
Due to the limited amount of funding, the end of the term will be justified by the complete exhaustion of money for this item of expenditure.

Persons who intend to participate in the proposed process of exchanging outdated cars for new ones should hurry to provide applications and documentation to their dealers, who will take care of the entire range of activities.

Vehicle recycling certificate and its validity period

You can obtain a certificate confirming the fact of disposal of the machine:
by independently contacting the authorities;
as a result of receiving the services of a car dealership where a new vehicle will be purchased.
The resulting certificate must contain information about the compensation amount. This amount can be 50 thousand rubles, 90 thousand rubles, 350 thousand rubles. for cars, SUVs and commercial vehicles, respectively.
Those who decide to obtain the Certificate on their own will need to contact special organizations whose activities are controlled by the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate and the Ministry of Industry and Trade. It is enough to present to such an authority:
own passport;
a certificate containing car registration data;
registration certificate;

Anyone who has received the desired certificate should pay attention to its validity period. Only those holders of certificates whose validity period will extend to 2017 will be able to participate in the state program.

Organizations involved in car recycling

Companies whose activities include recycling activities carry out their work under the control of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate and the Ministry of Industry and Trade. You can find out the address of such an enterprise in the traffic police department where the car was deregistered.
These companies are vested with special powers, and the documents they issue are recognized as valid throughout the entire state.
Once a vehicle has gone through the auto scrapping procedure, it is no longer possible to restore its registration.

What documents should the organization have?

In order to obtain the required Certificate, the owner must provide the following documentation to the organization carrying out the destruction of the car:
owner's passport;
car registration certificate;
registration certificate;
general power of attorney.
The presence of such a list of documents allows the applicant to receive a form of Certificate, which records the fact of transfer of out-of-service vehicles for recycling. This Certificate must be completed in person. It must contain information about:
owner;
representative of the recycling organization;
The vehicle that is the object of destruction.
The certification of the Certificate is carried out by a traffic police officer who is present in the process of filling out the documents and confirms their authenticity, as well as the right to carry out this operation.

Recycling equipment

The process of destroying vehicles unsuitable for further use requires the use of special equipment, which is available to organizations engaged in such work. Special equipment is necessary to save energy and resources on our planet.
Thanks to the implementation of technologically correct processes, materials from destroyed vehicles can be subsequently used in other production cycles, which will affect the further cost of new products.

Step-by-step procedure for auto recycling

Preparation of documents
The legislator does not limit the owner of a vehicle from the ability to independently prepare documentation for carrying out auto recycling activities. In cases where there is neither time nor desire for this, you can apply for services to the salon that has been selected as the seller of the future vehicle.
The first case is characterized by complete freeness of the actions performed; in the second, for Additional services the salon will have to pay. Due to the fact that dealers are interested in conducting the largest number sales, the cost of such services cannot be too high.

Statement

Self-prepared documentation allows the owner to contact the traffic police in order to deregister the four-wheeled friend. It is here that you can clarify information about which organization is ready to carry out the destruction of cars using specialized equipment.
Salon employees are ready to carry out all the necessary activities without the participation of the owner. They can be given the required full powers by issuing a general power of attorney.
The owner himself or his representative submits an application to the recycling organization about the need for disposal, which was previously agreed with the traffic police.

Selecting a disposal point

The choice of the organization carrying out the destruction of unusable transport can only be influenced by the establishment of the latter’s legislative ability to carry out such actions. To do this, the company must have the appropriate equipment and have the necessary permits.
Only those recycling centers that have received the required state license have the right to provide a certificate, which is the basis for receiving a discount on purchased new vehicles. This license indicates government control of the services provided by the company.

You can obtain information about the location of such companies from the traffic police. The traffic police officer will provide full information about the place of operation and operating hours of companies operating in the industry.


Vehicle disposal certificate

The application, which is sent to the organization involved in the process of dismantling and destroying the car, is a kind of agreement. This document reflects the name of the liquidated object.
As a result of completing the required actions, the applicant is issued a certificate confirming the future liquidation of the object transferred to him. The presence of this certificate indicates the obligation to pay tax, which will be calculated only for the period while the car was in stock.
Persons who do not have a certificate will not be able to hand over the vehicle for scrap.

Sample power of attorney for car disposal

A third party can also carry out the planned event on behalf of the owner of the vehicle. As a rule, this is an employee of a salon in which, in the future, a new car should be purchased at a significant discount, justified by the government program.
The power of attorney requires notarization. Such a document must contain exact data of the person to whom the powers are transferred, the scope of the powers granted, as well as the period specified for carrying out the intended actions.
The provided power of attorney gives the person the right to carry out the necessary registration steps, as well as hand over the “iron horse” for scrap.
To obtain a power of attorney, you can contact any of the notaries.

Registration in the traffic police

It is better to plan the entire list of required procedural actions that are carried out by the traffic police to remove a vehicle from registration in advance. Make an appointment with staff government agency possible using electronic resources, telephone, and also during a personal visit.

Video on car recycling

The modern Internet space is replete with a huge amount videos showing the recycling of vehicles.
Such videos are quite spectacular and arouse great interest among the public. At the legislative level, there are no restrictions regarding the impossibility of video recording of these events.

Which cars cannot be scrapped?

It is impossible to carry out the entire scope of necessary measures aimed at liquidating the vehicle if its state number and passport have not been handed over to the traffic police officer.
Providing only numbers without a passport or a passport without numbers is not the basis for signing a certificate, which is a kind of permission to carry out the legal destruction of a vehicle

How to cancel disposal (recovery of documents)

There are known cases in which the buyer, who has purchased a car, is faced with the situation of transferring it former owner for scrap. Such actions are carried out documented and mean that the former owner restored documents that did not exist in his possession or did not provide a complete package of them to the person who made the proper purchase.
You can use several cancellation methods:
searching for the owner and conducting negotiations to cancel the procedure;
Conducting a transaction to purchase a car exclusively through a notarial procedure, which eliminates the possibility of leaving some of the documents with an unscrupulous seller.
You can mark the assigned activities when contacting the traffic police, where the buyer will have to document the fact of the purchase. In the same body, it is possible to prove the possibility of a means of transportation, which will become the basis for canceling the transfer for scrap of actually acquired, running transport equipment.
It is important to remember that it is impossible to complete the procedure for registering a car that has been scrapped, as established by clause 13 of the Rules for registering motor vehicles and their trailers with the state safety inspectorate traffic Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation.

Five current car dealer programs

Among the main leaders in car dealer programs are representatives of manufacturers:
Lada;
VAZ;
Renault;
GAS.
Particular attention should be paid to trade-in transport offers. A number of dealers are ready to offer a discount of up to 60,000 rubles. persons purchasing vehicles under the recycling program.

The initiative prepared by the Government allows for the replacement of vehicles that have become obsolete with new ones, subject to an additional discount.
The actions taken are beneficial not only for buyers, but also for producers. Preparing to receive documentation on applying the discount is quite simple. The owner will only need:
passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation;
documentation on deregistration of the vehicle;
a receipt confirming payment of the appropriate state duty;
a document about a new purchase, including a discount;
power of attorney for a car dealer, required when destroying an old car;
certificate establishing the fact of disposal. The document can also be provided as a copy. Both a notary and a dealer can certify the copy.
It is important to remember to document each individual step. It is much better if such a fixation is supplemented by notarization.


Disposal
vehicle

Disposal of a vehicle is a registration action that occurs for the owner of a vehicle (car, motorcycle, truck, trailer, bus) for several reasons.


First reason
Occurs in the event of an aging vehicle (motorcycle, truck, trailer, bus), which must be legally disposed of in order to avoid paying vehicle tax.
In this case, you must contact the place where the vehicle is registered with the civil passport of the vehicle owner and dispose of it. The presence of the car itself is not required. From the date of disposal, tax authorities will no longer charge transport tax.
The car itself can be sold for scrap metal, fortunately there is plenty of it for companies that are engaged in such business.

The second reason
This is a forced measure that arises for the owner of a car who sold the vehicle at. The fact is that a car, for example, was sold at a general price 2,3,4 or more years ago, but the buyer is in no hurry to deregister it for any reason.

All these years, the car owner pays tax on the owner of the vehicle, and given that today's rates are far from the minimum, the amount accumulates is quite large. The buyer does not answer calls, it is not possible to search for him.

In this situation, the owner has no choice but to dispose of the car. To do this, you need to apply with your Russian passport to the registration department of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate where the car is registered. After such a procedure, the vehicle, according to the documents, ceases to be such, and a restriction on such a car appears in the traffic police database. It cannot be deregistered, sold, or undergo inspection.

When such a car is stopped at a traffic police post, it must be placed in a impound lot, and the owner of the car must be notified of the fact of evacuation.

Often, after disposing of a car, the buyer of the car unexpectedly appears and tearfully begs to be given a power of attorney to restore it from “scrap.” You can meet him halfway, in case of a tax refund for the entire time that he used the car and a mandatory condition for deregistering the vehicle.

Next, the traffic police carries out the procedure for returning the car from scrap. To do this, you need the owner of the car with a passport, or a notarized power of attorney from him to perform the above actions. Also, the presence of the car at the inspection site at the traffic police is necessary to verify the number plates. A new PTS (vehicle passport) will be issued for the car, because the previous one lost its legal force (was disposed of).

It is worth noting that if the return from scrap is handled by a trusted person (buyer), he will need to be given two notarized powers of attorney. One power of attorney for removal from scrap, and the second power of attorney for deregistration. The notary will not issue two powers of attorney at the same time, because for the second there is no data (PTS number, which organization and when it was issued).

In practice, it takes more time than if you personally drive up to the traffic police and, with the help of companies that help speed up the process, re-register the car within two hours. By the way, these costs need to be transferred to the “shoulders” of the car buyer, who should have done this within the time allotted by law. It would not be superfluous to demand moral compensation and time spent in monetary terms.


Third reason
Disposal of an old car instead of buying a new one (according to the state program). Here you can get acquainted with how recycling occurs in practice

The program began operating on March 8, 2010. Program participants receive a recycling certificate, with which they can purchase a new car made in Russia at a price reduced by 50,000 rubles.

The following are subject to disposal:

* cars manufactured in 1999 or earlier, both domestic and imported;
* have a permissible total weight of no more than 3.5 tons;
* is complete (on the move or suitable for transportation, with steles, technical fluids, battery, tires and wheels, exhaust system, engine, transmission and attachments, fuel);
* have been owned by the last owner for more than 1 year, provided there are documents confirming ownership.

To dispose of an old car and then purchase a new car, you must:

1. Deliver to the official dealer of the state program old car, handed over for recycling.
2. Obtain from the dealer an approved recycling certificate form by the Russian Ministry of Industry and Trade.
3. Execute a power of attorney from the owner in simple written form to carry out operations: deregistration with the traffic police, transfer of the old car to a recycling point, obtaining a recycling certificate.
4. Sign an agreement on the basis of which the dealer will carry out the procedure on behalf of the car owner, and until the receipt of a recycling certificate, the old car will be in safe custody until the car is deregistered.
5. Pay an amount of up to 3,000 rubles under the agreement to the dealer for disposal.
6. Select a car from the list of new cars subject to exchange approved by the state program, and reserve it at the dealer.
7. Upon receipt of a fully executed and completed salvage certificate from the dealer, complete registration of the new car as your property.

Cool

To participate in the old car recycling program, the owner must collect a package of documents.

In the Russian Federation, the state government continues, which was extended into 2015. The created program is that every car owner can scrap his old car and receive a certain discount for this when purchasing a new car from the official dealer network of any of the car brands represented in Russia. In this case, the amount of the discount is determined by the assessment of the vehicle being scrapped.

Today, you can scrap an old car through certain automobile dealerships included in the lists of participants in the state recycling program. Only these automobile organizations pay subsidies from the state for the purchase of a new car. However, this procedure is not so simple. To receive such payments from the state, car owners are required to go through a special procedure along with compliance with the rules regulated by law.

All car owners should know that after disposing of an old car, money will not be issued in person. Cash is not given for an old car. The owner of a scrapped car will receive a special certificate (subsidy from the state). This certificate indicates the amount for which the buyer will receive a discount on a new car.

As a result, the discount amount will be deducted from the price of the new car purchased at the car dealer. Thus, a car enthusiast who wants to be a participant in the new state recycling program in order to buy a new car at a substantial discount must go through all stages of the procedure, observing the required conditions, as well as collecting Required documents.

If the client goes through the entire procedure, the answer to his request will be positive, and he will be able to purchase a new car at a substantial discount.

Procedure and conditions of the recycling program

The procedure for recycling an old car is established by law. Its stages cannot change. In addition, each old car must comply with the conditions of the 2014-2015 state recycling program. Moreover, these conditions correspond to the recycling program of earlier years.

It is important to know! One motorist can scrap only one old car. In other words, you can't trade in two old cars at once to get an even bigger discount on a new car.

Otherwise, when the trade-in vehicle cannot be restored to road use, it is scrapped and the customer also receives a discount certificate for the purchase of a new vehicle. In this case, the motorist begins to undergo the recycling procedure. Its algorithm is not complicated and is described in the table below step by step.

Step Description
1. Search in your city for a company participating in the recycling program You need to find a car dealer in your city or a neighboring city that participates in the government recycling program.
2. Registration of a power of attorney The motorist issues a power of attorney to the dealer so that he can carry out disposal procedures on behalf of the client without his participation.
3. Passing an assessment inspection Next, you need to undergo an assessment inspection of the old car to find out its market value in accordance with the existing wear and tear, as well as according to the configuration.
4. Payment for car liquidation services The client pays the cost of liquidating the old car.
5. Choosing a new car The client selects a specific new car, which he will purchase taking into account the discount after recycling the old car.
6. Determining the cost of a new car After choosing a new car, you need to find out its cost.
7. Calculation of the cost of a new car taking into account the discount calculation of the final amount that will be after deducting the compensation issued by the state when disposing of the old car.
8. Preparation of documents for purchasing a new car A participant in the recycling program moves to this stage only if he successfully completes all previous stages of the old car recycling procedure.

There is one condition in this procedure that can be beneficial for the motorist. When a government-owned enterprise disposes of an old vehicle, the disposal fee is not paid by the owner of the vehicle. This fee is collected only by private recyclers of old cars.


Each dealer evaluates the used car that is traded in by the program participant. If the car can be used, then it goes through the Trade-In program. In this case, the client also receives a certificate for a discount when purchasing a new car.

If a motorist decides to turn to a private recycling company, then he will have to go through the following stages of the recycling procedure:

  1. deregistration of a specific vehicle with the traffic police for disposal;
  2. self-delivery of the vehicle to the selected recycling company;
  3. payment of the state fee for the “press”;
  4. issuance of a certificate for compensation by a company employee;
  5. Apply with the certificate to any car dealership to purchase a new car at a discount.

Since 2015, the state car recycling project has changed slightly. Now it has new conditions:

  • the discount indicated in the certificate is not issued in cash;
  • the certificate can only be used at a car dealership that is a participant in the state recycling program;
  • The discount is valid only for the purchase of a new car;
  • The budget for the recycling program is 10 billion rubles, and it cannot be exceeded unless the Government of the Russian Federation allocates additional funds for this program;
  • When purchasing a new car, only one certificate is accepted from a legal entity and an individual;
  • Compensation can only be received for cars manufactured in Russia;
  • The amount of compensation will be determined depending on the type of vehicle: a car, minibus, truck, SUV, etc.

When going through the entire recycling procedure, there is a possibility that you will not receive a discount certificate simply because the old car will not meet the conditions of the state program. That is why every potential participant in the recycling program must first familiarize themselves with the requirements of the state program. These are the requirements for old cars:

  • The car is at least 6 years old. The maximum age of the vehicle being returned is not limited;
  • the last owner must have owned this old car for at least six months;
  • Vehicles manufactured anywhere in the world are accepted for recycling;
  • the car must be deregistered with the traffic police;
  • The car must have complete factory equipment: engine, body, gearbox, transmission, battery, standard electrical equipment, wheels, instrument panel, etc. All environmentally unsafe materials and components must be available if they were included in the factory configuration.


If all these basic requirements are met, after disposing of the car, the former car owner will receive the long-awaited certificate and can safely head to the car dealership for a new car.

Documents required when disposing of a car

To participate in old cars, the owner must collect the following documents:

  • PTS vehicle passport (and its copy). The PTS will definitely check the mark on the deregistration of the car with the traffic police. If you do not have a title after deregistration, then you can submit a certificate of deregistration of the car;
  • passport of the owner of the scrapped car.

If an old car is handed over under the Trade-In program, then the car owner will have to present the following documents:

  • a document confirming the deregistration of the car with the traffic police;
  • a deed that is issued upon liquidation of an old car (original or notarized copy);
  • technical passport of the car (original);
  • certificate of completion of the vehicle registration procedure (original);
  • owner's passport.

Many Russian motorists have already appreciated the advantages of the state recycling program, which makes it possible to renew the country’s entire vehicle fleet with benefit to the population. In addition, this program provides support to the domestic automobile manufacturer.

We hope that our information will help you avoid many troubles that may arise if the vehicle you are returning does not comply with the recycling conditions.

1. What needs to be done?

It is necessary to register with the traffic police for the disposal of the car due to the impossibility of its further operation.

2. How to do this?

You need to come to any traffic police department and fill out application in standard form, attaching the title and license plate numbers of the vehicle being scrapped. Of course, you need to have an identification document with you. After filling out the application and highlighting the required item, you hand over the application, license plates and PTS and receive a document on disposal: from this date you will no longer be charged transport tax on the scrapped car.

3. Can I scrap a car if I don’t have its license plates and title?

Yes, you can - the procedure will be absolutely the same, but you will need to write a statement to the traffic police about the loss of license plates and/or PTS under unclear circumstances in order to document the fact of their theft.

4. Do I need to take the car for inspection to the traffic police when disposing of it?

No, disposal is carried out without inspecting the vehicle. He himself is not needed by the traffic police - only documents and license plates.




5. If I scrap a car, are all vehicle tax debts scrapped along with it?

Of course not - transport tax ceases to be charged only from the moment the car ceases to exist documented. All obligations to pay transport tax accrued for previous years of the car’s life remain with you in full. So if the skeleton of an ancient Moskvich is decomposing in your garage, take a moment to drop by with an application, license plates and title to the traffic police department - you will have to pay tax for such a car as for a functional one.

6. Can I intimidate by deregistering a new owner who bought a car from me but did not register it in his name?

No: the recycling process is irreversible. Don't remember the years when deregistration was carried out for every purchase and sale and in general for any reason: now, if you deregister a car for disposal, it will be disposed of forever. Of course, if new owner turned out to be irresponsible, lost the car and neglected the formal side of the issue, and you know for sure that the car burned down/sank/was stolen by the Martians, you can safely go to the traffic police and dispose of it. But if you sold the car for a significant amount and don’t know what happened to it, then disposing of it can bring you additional difficulties when its irresponsible new owner shows up and ends up with a pile of spare parts that cannot be driven. Therefore, if you find yourself in such a situation, do not deregister the car, but

If you can’t sell your old car, and even pre-sale preparation doesn’t help, then it’s time to think about vehicle recycling. This is not the only reason that could prompt such a step. If the car has been in a serious accident and cannot be restored. Or you simply bought a new vehicle and left the old one “gathering dust” in the yard. In order not to litter the yard and, most importantly, to get rid of taxes on the car, you need to properly dispose of it.

In Russia, this procedure is not particularly popular. At the moment it is completely voluntary. And in order to implement it according to the law, sometimes you still need to pay a certain amount. Unfortunately, this practice is found only in Russia and some undeveloped countries of the world. In Germany, for example, some benefits are provided for car recycling, and when this procedure is carried out, they pay a fairly large amount, exceeding $3,000.

But our government is also actively involved in this issue. At the end of 2011, the promotion ended, which provided a discount on the purchase of a domestic car or some other brands produced in the Russian Federation. If you are not included in this promotion, then do not worry, in this article AvtoGurman will tell you how It's profitable to recycle your car. How can you make money from this and get rid of taxes on an old car, and do it legally.

What is recycling?

Recycling, which applies to automobile equipment, is a complex procedure that involves complete disassembly of the vehicle. The first step is to remove all the rubber (including tires and all kinds of hoses) and glass. Next, the car interior is completely cleaned from seats, all electronic devices and plastic parts, down to bare metal. Remove the wiring and remove all non-ferrous metals.

Then they take on the task of draining all the working fluids that might have remained from the last trip. And they remove the axles, gearbox and engine. The output is an empty piece of iron, which is first pressed into place and then remelted. After this, the finished raw materials can be sent to create new cars, thereby reducing their production costs, and as a result, the price.

Recycling is also beneficial from an environmental point of view. Imagine how much your cars would decompose in an urban environment? Hundreds of years, during which it would poison the soil, and indeed the whole environment toxic substances that would gradually ooze out of it.

Recycling process

To recycle your car according to all laws, you need to be the owner of the vehicle and have all the necessary documents for it.

It is important to remember that before disposing of a car, you need to deregister it with the traffic police. You can read about how to do this here. Thanks to these actions, you will notify the tax office that you no longer have a car, which means you have nothing to pay taxes on.

  1. First of all, you need to contact the traffic police department where your vehicle is currently registered.
  2. Don't forget to take with you an identification document and your right to drive a car. They must be provided along with the vehicle passport and vehicle registration certificate. If it is impossible to restore the car documents (for example, if they are lost), you will be given a special form to fill out.
  3. Then they will give you your passport and driver license, and they will keep the car documents. For their place you will receive a special certificate for recycling the car.
  4. If at the time of receipt you have debts to the tax authorities, then the traffic police MREO will ask you to pay them, be prepared for this.
Next, at your discretion, you can choose one of three ways to dispose of your old vehicle:
  1. Find a vehicle collection point for recycling yourself. And drop off your car there for free. If it is not drivable, then it needs to be delivered there by tow truck, most likely at your own expense. This option is the most unprofitable, which is also unprofitable. On average, tow truck services will cost 3 thousand Russian rubles.
  2. In many cities, including medium-sized ones in terms of population, there are companies that will pick up your car in any configuration for free. You won’t be paid a penny for this, but you won’t spend any money either and will quickly get rid of the “iron horse”.
  3. And the third option, the most time-consuming and effort-consuming, but the most profitable. In this case, you need to dispose of the car yourself. As mentioned above, this is a difficult operation, but doable. You hand over the iron structure of the car to private scrap metal organizations. And you can sell working parts on the auto market. In this case, there is a chance to earn from 10 to 50 thousand rubles from independent disassembly and sale of spare parts, depending on the model of your vehicle.

Where can I recycle my car?

If you decide not to tinker with the car, but immediately hand it over to professional disassemblers, then you will need the addresses and phone numbers of organizations providing this service. Auto-Gurman considers it his duty to tell you about one service that has collected all the data from these organizations. Moreover, I brought this up with a convenient search and a world map, where all vehicle reception points are marked, and their clusters are indicated by color, where red is the highest density of reception points, yellow is average, and green is the most free.

Reasons for scrapping a car

The reasons are different for everyone, but, as a rule, there are two main ones that arise for the vast majority of drivers. Let's comment on them and give ways to get out of them.

Stop paying tax for an unused vehicle


In this case, you need to either sell your car. If this is not possible, or it is in poor condition, then dispose of it. To do this legally and not have problems with the tax authorities in the future, you need to follow the procedure specified in the second paragraph of this article.
After you are issued a certificate for vehicle disposal, they will no longer send you letters about payment of transport tax.

The car was sold under a general power of attorney, but taxes go to the old owner


If you find yourself in this situation, then don't worry. The new owner turned out to be a dishonest person who did not deregister the car, and it still hangs on you. In order to relieve yourself of the obligation to pay transport tax for the new owner and force him to pay the entire amount that you paid for his car, you need to:
  1. Take your passport and go to the traffic police department where your car is registered
  2. Go through a special procedure, thanks to which the following restrictions will be applied to the new owner: a ban on selling the car, a ban on undergoing technical inspection, and the inability to deregister.
These measures are enough for the new owner to “find” and get in touch with you. Moreover, in this situation you are already in an advantageous position, and you decide how to deal with the unscrupulous buyer: the same way he treats you or humanely towards him.

The advantages of recycling are obvious: reducing the cost of producing new cars, protecting the environment and eliminating unnecessary costs in the form of tax exemption for an “unnecessary” car.

Auto-Gourmet hopes that you will no longer have the question of how to recycle a car legally correct and beneficial for the environment!
