Recycling and scrapping end-of-life vehicles 
Recycling end-of-life vehicles 
Volkswagen has already made provision for you to recycle your vehicle in an environmentally 
responsible manner. The extensive recycling systems operating in many European countries will take 
back your vehicle at the end of its useful life. Once the vehicle has been recycled, a certificate of 
destruction will be issued to show that the vehicle has been disposed of correctly. 
Return of end-of-life vehicles is free of charge, provided that national legislation is complied with. 
Further information on return and recycling of end-of-life vehicles is available from a Volkswagen 
dealership. 
Scrapping 
The relevant safety requirements must be observed when the vehicle or its individual components, 
e.g. from the airbag system and belt tensioners, are scrapped. Qualified workshops are familiar with 
these regulations. 
Information about vehicles with N1 approval (light commercial vehicle) 
Please observe the following for vehicles used to transport goods with a maximum permitted weight 
of up to 3.5 t (N1 approval in Europe):

Transporting children safely

Towing a trailer 
If the vehicle is approved for towing a trailer, observe any local regulations for driving with a trailer 
and using a towing bracket. 
If the vehicle exceeds the gross vehicle weight rating or the rear axle load, do not exceed 80 km/h 
when towing a trailer. This also applies to countries where higher speeds are permitted. Keep to 
country-specific speed limits which may be lower for vehicles with trailers than for vehicles without 
trailers. 
The vehicle documents contain details of permitted excess loads. If no excess loads are shown, the 
vehicle can be driven at 100 km/h, taking account of the laws which apply in different countries.
