FAQs

Everything you might want to ask.

15+ answers covering selling, payment, documents, ULEZ and finance. If yours isn't here, call 0207 8717 671, WhatsApp the same number, or email enquiries@sellyourcab.co.uk. Same-working-day reply on all three.

Selling your cab

How fast do I get paid?

Same day. Once we've inspected your vehicle and you've accepted the offer, the bank transfer goes the same working day, usually within an hour of collection.

Are there any fees?

None. The price we agree is the price you receive, in full, into your bank account. No buyer fees, no admin fees, nothing knocked off at collection.

What if my vehicle is on finance?

Not a problem. We settle the finance directly with your lender on the day of collection and pay the balance to you. Tell us up-front and we'll do the maths together.

What documents do I need?

Logbook (V5C) in your name, photo ID, both sets of keys, and your UK bank details. If you've got a finance settlement letter or service history, bring those too.

Do you buy cabs that have failed MOT?

Yes, we still buy them. The price reflects the work needed, but we buy in any condition. Tell us up-front and we'll quote fairly.

Do you buy cabs with a PCO plate but the logbook not in my name?

We need the logbook (V5C) in your name, or a clear paper trail like a finance lender's letter, to buy it legally. If you're unsure, call us before booking.

How long is your offer valid?

72 hours. Prices move, so after that we'll re-quote with up-to-date figures. There's a refresh button on your offer page.

Booking & collection

Can I reschedule my appointment?

Yes, go to /manage-my-appointment, log in with the email and postcode you used at booking, and you can reschedule, change the address, or cancel.

Do I have to bring my cab to you?

No. We come to you anywhere in the UK at no charge. If you'd prefer to drop it at our Bethnal Green office, that's fine too.

Can I sell on behalf of a family member?

Only if you have written authority and the registered keeper's photo ID. If it's a deceased estate, please call us first.

Fleet sales

How fast do you turn around fleet quotes?

Within 2 hours of receiving your stock list. Larger fleets (200+) we'll often quote sooner.

Do you collect across the UK for fleet?

Yes, multi-site collection on a schedule that fits your operations. Logistics is included; you don't pay for transport.

How is this faster than selling the fleet the usual way?

The usual routes mean transport costs, no guaranteed price, and sometimes weeks to get paid. We give you a written firm offer in 2 hours and pay on collection.

Privacy & data

What do you do with my data?

We act as a data controller under UK GDPR. We use your data to value, contact, and pay you. We never sell it. Full detail in our Privacy Policy.

How do I unsubscribe?

Reply STOP to any SMS, or click 'unsubscribe' in any email. We honour STOP server-side and stop all marketing within minutes.

Got your answer?

Reg and mileage, a firm offer in 2 hours.

Type your reg. A real valuer prices it within two hours, free UK collection, same-working-day payment.
