What's the difference between scrap and salvage?
Scrapping means your car goes straight to the scrapyard to be crushed and recycled. Salvaging is different—your car is taken apart for any working parts before recycling. Salvage offers are usually higher, as buyers can sell the parts on. Both options remove your car quickly and legally.

How do I get the best price for my car?
To get the best price for your car, compare both scrap and salvage quotes. Always give an honest description of your car’s condition, as this can increase your offer. Make sure you choose a service that includes free collection, so you keep every penny. After you accept a quote, speak with an advisor to confirm details and mention anything that could raise your price. We pay you on the same day we collect your car, with no hidden fees or delays. This way, you get quick cash and avoid any hassle.
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.
