We buy scrap cars across Midlothian & Edinburgh

Edinburgh's city-centre LEZ is now fully enforced, and the fast-growing ex-mining towns down the A7 corridor are classic commuter territory — together they generate a constant supply of older diesels and MOT failures. Note for locals: South Queensferry sits under City of Edinburgh council rather than West Lothian, so we list it here alongside Edinburgh.

These towns don’t have their own page yet, but they sit on exactly the same uplift rounds — the form works for every postcode below.

South Queensferry

South Queensferry (EH30) sits under the bridges through Dalmeny, Kirkliston and Echline. It lists here by council, alongside Edinburgh; cars near the water carry coastal rust we price in, and the uplift is booked free after your WhatsApp offer.

Loanhead

Loanhead (EH20) reaches Bilston, Straiton and Dryden just south of the bypass. Whether the car runs or has seized, the form returns a firm figure on WhatsApp and the collection from any of those addresses costs nothing.

Gorebridge

Down the A7 on EH23, Gorebridge takes in Arniston, Fushiebridge and North Middleton. We buy MOT failures and non-starters as they stand here, with the price agreed in writing first and the bank transfer cleared on the day.

Newtongrange

Newtongrange (EH22) joins Easthouses, Newbattle and Bryans in the old mining belt. The same short form covers each address, returns a fixed offer via WhatsApp, and the uplift that follows is always free of charge.

Roslin

Roslin (EH25) reaches Rosewell, Roslin Glen and the Bush estate in the hills south of the city. Distance adds nothing here; send the registration through for a firm figure and a free booked collection around your day.

Mayfield

Mayfield (EH22) runs through Easthouses, Whitehill and Pathhead on the A7 corridor. We collect runners and write-offs alike, with the offer set in writing before we travel and payment by instant bank transfer on arrival.

Midlothian pairs Edinburgh, where the city-centre clean-air zone is now fully enforced, with the fast-growing ex-mining towns down the A7. Together they turn out a constant run of older diesels and MOT failures, and those are exactly the cars we are set up to buy, alongside damaged ones and cars that have simply stopped. Running cars are bought too; the difference is only in where the strongest figures land.

The district is compact, so our trucks move quickly between the capital and the towns below it, and a single booked round covers most of the area. A flat in Leith, a house in Bonnyrigg and a driveway in Penicuik all sit on the same kind of route, with the uplift free from every one. South Queensferry belongs here too: it falls under City of Edinburgh council rather than West Lothian, so we list it in this hub alongside Edinburgh. Wherever you are, the offer is fixed on WhatsApp first, the V5C and DVLA side is handled at the kerb, and payment is an instant bank transfer made before the truck leaves.
