Before your car is collected in Scottish Borders, remove personal belongings and anything you are legally entitled to keep. Do not remove parts that were included in the quote unless you tell the buyer first.
Remove personal items first
Check the glovebox, centre console, boot, under seats, door pockets, and any storage trays. Old parking permits, receipts, insurance documents, and service paperwork often get left behind.
Clear personal data
Remove phones, dash cams, sat navs, memory cards, Bluetooth pairings, garage remotes, and anything that stores personal data.
Be careful with valuable parts
If the quote assumes the catalytic converter, alloy wheels, battery, stereo, or spare wheel are present, removing them can change the final price. Tell the buyer before collection if anything has been taken off.
What usually should stay with the car
Keys if available
Wheels needed for recovery access
Battery if it was included in the quote
Catalytic converter if fitted and included
Any parts you declared as present
Collection day in Scottish Borders
Make sure the car can be accessed safely in Scottish Borders or nearby areas such as Coldstream, Duns and Galashiels. If the vehicle is blocked in, has flat tyres, or cannot roll, say so before the driver arrives.
