5 Your Responsibilities
- Provide accurate information about your vehicle, location and breakdown
- Ensure the vehicle is legally yours or you have owner's authority
- Ensure the collection area is safe and accessible
- Secure any valuables before collection — we accept no liability for items left in the vehicle
- For scrap collections, ensure the vehicle is free of hazardous materials
6 Liability
We take all reasonable care of your vehicle. In the unlikely event of damage caused by our negligence, liability is limited to the market value of the vehicle or reasonable repair cost, whichever is lower.
We are not liable for:
- Pre-existing damage
- Consequential losses (missed appointments, hire car costs, loss of earnings)
- Delays due to traffic, weather or circumstances beyond our control
- Loss of personal property left in the vehicle
7 Scrap & End-of-Life Vehicles
You confirm you are the registered owner or have legal right to dispose of the vehicle. A Certificate of Destruction (CoD) will be issued by our approved ATF partner per Irish regulations. Payment agreed before collection is final, subject to the vehicle's condition matching its description.
8 Force Majeure
We will not be in breach of these terms due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including severe weather, road closures, or mechanical failure of our own vehicle.
9 Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of Ireland. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Irish courts.
