Fiat Group Automobiles UK Ltd has appointed Autogreen as our authorised service provider for End of Life Vehicles. Autogreen provide a national network of Authorised Treatment Facilities (ATFs). These are sites which have been licensed by the Environment Agency in England & Wales, the Scottish Environment Protection Agency in Scotland or the Environment & Heritage Service in Northern Ireland, to de-pollute end of life vehicles to standards set by DEFRA (the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs). Only licensed ATF sites are permitted to issue last owners with a DVLA Certificate of Destruction (CoD). A Certificate of Destruction (CoD) is issued to prove that a vehicle has been scrapped in a lawful and environmentally sound manner. Without a CoD a last owner could be fined under new laws on continuous licensing. For any further information on disposal of vehicles please contact Autogreen via their website.
