Sainsbury’s is considering a novel plan that would allow customers to sell their cars directly from the supermarket’s car park. The proposal involves installing a dedicated pod in a recycling area that has long struggled with illegal dumping — a problem that has cost the store around £20,000 to clear.
This innovative pod concept aims to repurpose the neglected recycling space into a secure, accessible area where private vehicle sales can take place. By doing so, Sainsbury’s hopes to deter fly-tipping and provide added convenience for shoppers looking to sell their vehicles without the hassle of arranging private viewings or using third-party platforms.
If approved, the initiative could represent a new way for retail spaces to address local waste issues while offering practical services to their communities.
