Scrap your non-ULEZ compliant vehicle and receive 300 free minutes of e‑scooting!*

Encouraging Londonders to switch to more sustainable transport options, and reduce congestion and carbon emissions in cities is at the heart of Lime’s mission.

That’s why we’re proud to be partnering with Transport for London (TfL) for the launch of its new scrappage scheme, which will help Londoners prepare for the expansion of the Mayor of London’s Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) in August 2023.

We’ll be offering 5 free 20 minute e-scooter rides per month, for three months* to Londoners on certain means-tested and non-means tested disability benefits, that trade-in their non-ULEZ compliant vehicles, as we look to make alternative, more sustainable transport options accessible to all Londoners.

What is ULEZ and TfL’s scrappage scheme?

The ULEZ zone operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It was introduced to help clean up London’s air and requires cars driving in London to meet minimum emissions standards when travelling within the zone, or pay a daily charge of £12.50.


The ULEZ zone currently covers all areas within the North and South Circular Roads. But from 29th August 2023, it is being expanded to cover all London boroughs.


The newly introduced vehicle scrapping scheme aims to help low-income users prepare for the expansion by encouraging the scrappage or retrofit of older vehicles, and the switch to cleaner and more sustainable modes of transport.
