About Us
Established in 1926, Charles Trent has over 80 years experience in vehicle recycling and management. Our family run business has grown significantly, offering national coverage to many different organisations such as insurance companies, local authorities and motor manufacturers, to name a few.
With sites in Dorset, Kent, Suffolk, Nottinghamshire, Warwickshire and South Yorkshire and a large fleet of multi car transporters, we can handle up to 100,000 units every year.
Vehicle depollution and dismantling is completed in house offering our partners the peace of mind that any vehicles that are not repairable do not reappear on our roads. We are fully compliant with legislative regulation and support Trade Associations.
We employ in excess of 140 people across the UK and have embedded our Brand Values across our organisation. All our partners and customers receive flexible, tailor made solutions with a consistently high level of customer service.
