What happens to my scrap car?

All scrap cars must be recycled in line with government regulations. Most of the time these parts will be broken into their original materials, and often used again in building new cars.

What's the difference between scrap and salvage?

Salvage vehicles are broken apart before they are sent for their final scrap location. This means there is the potential for additional sales of spare parts, which is why you may find your salvage offer is bigger than your scrap one.

What are the scrap car prices in Exmouth?

All of our scrap car prices are governed by the weight of your car. Every price we quote will reflect the national average for scrap metal in the UK. We’ll compare your offers to those around you, meaning you’ll get the best price from around Exmouth and the rest of Devon.

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.
