How to scrap a car in Hyde

1. Get a quote

Simply put your vehicle details into our online quote generator at the top of this page and we'll calculate your scrap offers instantly. Based on the current rate for scrap metal, this will be defined by the weight of your car. You could choose to accept this straight away, but we'll call you to discuss your options anyway.

2. Provide more details

When we call, you're given the opportunity to get an even better offer. We'll ask some questions about your car's condition and this will allow us to see if we could recalculate your offer as salvage. The details you provide must be accurate, as false information will nullify the price guarantee and it will be recalculated upon collection.

3. Arrange collection

With an offer accepted and locked in, we'll send out one of our trusted collection partners to come and remove your vehicle. Following a brief inspection to check your car is as described, it'll be loaded up and taken away at which point the money will be transferred directly into your account via bank transfer.

What are the scrap car prices in Hyde?

Your scrap vehicle will be priced up based primarily on the current scrap metal cost in the Hyde and Greater Manchester area. Scrapping a vehicle essentially amounts to scrapping the metal it’s made from, so the weight of the car plays a big role in determining its value. Heavier vehicles are generally worth more. There are other factors that influence the offers you’ll get though, including age, condition, make, and model.

What's the difference between scrap and salvage?

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.

What happens to scrap cars?

If your car is scrapped then the vehicle will be recycled. This means all of the components and parts will be stripped and processed in line with national environmental standards. Nearly all of the materials will be used to build new cars in what is considered a circular automotive economy.

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.
