introduction

We are a stand-alone company with close ties to Norwich Union, the UK's largest insurer. Since 2000, we have designed and applied new web-based systems that have dramatically improved the business of buying and selling commercial assets. The result is a secure and robust trading system that uses state of the art technology to maximum effect.

We bring buyers and sellers together in an automated environment that offers exceptional levels of value and convenience. And we have built in all the security, logistical backup and human help you need to allow you to trade with complete confidence.

the UK's leading online salvage marketplace

Our largest areas of business are auto and plant salvage. In just a few years, we have changed the face of the vehicle salvage market in the UK. We set out to build a total service, from vehicle recovery and storage through to finalising the sale. We have now auctioned over 350,000 vehicles and built a large customer base of salvage buyers.

Our systems are custom designed and backed up with a nationwide logistics network. Users can visit the online auction site and bid at any time of the day or night. All vehicles are shown clearly, with multiple images and full descriptions and damage reports, and are checked for outstanding finance issues. Bidding is simple, and payment is made online. The system is designed for maximum user convenience and high volume sales.

our history

bluecycle.com was created in 2000 to design and apply Internet-based technology to the insurance industry. Our focus was on the disposal of distressed business assets including auto salvage.

From the start, our objectives were clear. We set out to develop a credible and transparent marketplace that had benefits for both buyers and sellers, to bring new technological efficiency to the salvage disposal process and to generate higher returns for salvage sellers.

We have grown steadily and moved from milestone to milestone, constantly testing and improving the value and reliability of our systems, building ever bigger markets and growing into a lean, profitable company that understands the importance of strict budgets and keen margins.

Our robust and trusted trading system uses the web to maximum effect and our dynamic programme of continual improvement keeps us at the cutting edge, making bluecycle.com a real dotcom success story.
