What are the scrap car prices in Chatteris

Every scrap quote we provide is calculated based on the national rate for scrap metal combined with the weight of your car – in essence you’re selling a large lump of scrap metal. Salvage vehicle quotes will also take into account your make and model, vehicle age and its general condition.

What's the difference between scrap and salvage?

Salvage vehicles will be stripped of any reusable parts that can be sold on as spares before it is sent to the scrap yard. This often means salvage vehicle quotes are slightly larger, purely because of the extra value in those working parts. Scrap vehicles, however, are just sent straight to the crusher.

What happens to scrap cars?

All scrap cars are recycled in line with environmental standards and national legislation. Your car will be treated and returned back to its raw materials. These materials will often re-enter the manufacturing industry, and could be used to help build brand new cars. By scrapping your old car, you might help another new one hit the road!

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.
