Winter Essentials – Car Batteries
Checking the battery of your vehicle is so important with the winter months approaching that it should be your number one priority.
Cold and damp weather can have adverse effects on a car’s battery and has been known to cut its usual (5-year) lifespan short.
What are the signs?
If the battery is starting to struggle when you turn the key in the ignition that could be a sign that your battery is faulty and should be looked at as soon as possible.
What can I do?
You can test the battery yourself if you have the correct equipment, or take the vehicle to a specialist where they can test it for you.
What if I need a new battery?
The average new battery can cost anything from £40 – £100+.
We have a wide selection of used car batteries in brilliant working condition available at both of our York and Edinburgh breakers yards, with our prices significantly cheaper than that of a new battery.
Call Contact Recycling today to see if we have what you’re looking for.
