Scrap car services in Amersham & Chesham
We do much more than just sell cars for scrap – here’s what we can do for you.
Scrap your car
Scrapping is what we do best, and we know exactly how to get every penny possible for your car by using our wide network of local scrap dealers. The prices we offer are fairly calculated by taking into account the market value of scrap metal.
Sell a damaged car
No level of damage is too severe for us here at Scrap Car Comparison or any of the buyers on our network. Your vehicle could be carrying a few scuffs & dents, or it might be a total wreck! Either way, it’s still worth something – let us tell you just how much.
Sell a car for salvage
Some cars can actually get a better price if they’re sold as salvage rather than scrap. Salvage simply means your car will be stripped of any reusable parts and then sold on as spares – which is where the extra value comes from.
Sell a van or commercial vehicle
Looking to scrap something larger than a car? We can help you out too! Using the exact same process as our other services, we’ll get you a great price for your commercial vehicle, whatever it is!
How to scrap a car in Amersham and Chesham
1. Get a quote
Use our instant valuation tool to find your base scrap quotes. Just a postcode and vehicle registration is enough to unlock your offers, and if you're happy you can accept straight away. Either way we'll call you to go over the finer details.
2. Provide more details
Our call gives you a chance to boost your offers and get even more money out of your car. Describe it accurately and we'll see if we can recalculate its value, even potentially reclassifying it as a salvage vehicle. Be accurate, as false information will only result in a renegotiation at collection.
3. Collection and payment
With your offer now accepted, we'll put you in touch with a collection specialist in your area. They'll come to you and pick up your car, following a brief inspection to ensure it's as described. We'll then transfer the money directly into your bank account.

What are the scrap car values in Amersham and Chesham?
Every time we quote a scrap car price, it will have gone through our online system. This will take the weight of your car and the going rate for scrap metal to ensure you’re getting an accurate offer. We’ll then run those prices alongside other quotes across your local area to ensure you’re getting only the very best offers in Buckinghamshire.
What happens to scrap cars?
All scrap cars are recycled in line with government regulations. The majority of your car will be returned to its original materials. These materials are then reused in the manufacturing process – often for new vehicles.
How is salvage different to scrap?
Car salvaging is the process of reclaiming the vehicle so it isn’t dismantled and recycled, but instead fixed or stripped for parts. Salvaging nearly always gets you a better price for your car or van, but we do need to know more about the car’s condition.
How do I get the best price for my car?
Many older or written-off cars aren’t destined for the scrap heap. Some are salvaged for parts or even fully restored. To get the best price, use a service like ours that provides both scrap and salvage quotes. Ensure you describe the car’s condition accurately, as salvage buyers often pay more. Also, check for collection fees—our quotes always include free collection.
But the single most important factor to getting the very best price for your scrap car is to speak directly with one of our advisors! After you accept a quote online, we'll give you a call to confirm details and schedule collection. Use this call to share any info that might boost your offer and get the highest payout possible.
Are you prices really guaranteed?
Salvage quotes depend on the car’s condition, not just its weight. Accurately describing the vehicle ensures the highest price and prevents later adjustments. Misrepresentation can result in lower offers.
