Touring caravan disposal requires specialist handling, especially when the caravan is no longer towable, damp, damaged or has been sitting unused for years. Scrap My Caravan provides a complete UK‑wide touring caravan disposal service — including collection, removal, transport and responsible recycling — carried out by Environment Agency‑licensed waste carriers.
Whether your touring caravan is on a driveway, storage yard, farm, holiday park or private land, the process is simple: request a quote, confirm the details, and choose a collection date. A trained team will collect the caravan safely and legally, and you’ll receive confirmation once the job is complete.

How Touring Caravan Disposal Works
1. Assessment & Quotation
You provide the size, condition and location. Access restrictions are noted so the correct vehicle can be arranged.
2. Safe Collection
The team arrives with the appropriate equipment to load or recover the caravan, even if it cannot be moved or towed.
3. Transport to a Licensed Facility
Your caravan is transported to a licensed dismantling and recycling centre.
4. Recycling & Waste Processing
Around 70–80% of a touring caravan is recyclable, including:
- Aluminium
- Steel
- Plastics
- Glass
- Timber
Non‑recyclable materials are handled through licensed waste channels — never landfilled illegally or burned informally.
Paperwork Required for Touring Caravan Disposal
Touring caravans may be DVLA‑registered if they have a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) and a V5C logbook.
If yours is registered:
- The DVLA registration must be surrendered when the caravan is scrapped.
- Have your V5C logbook ready when booking.
If your touring caravan is not registered, disposal is straightforward and no DVLA paperwork is required.
If you’re unsure, simply ask during your quote request.
