We’ll also compare your offers to others in your nearby locations, meaning you’ll get the very best price across Hampshire.

How is salvaging different from scrapping?

Salvaging sees cars broken down into their working parts before being scrapped. This allows those parts to then be sold on or used elsewhere to repair other broken vehicles. Because of this, the value of the original vehicle will often rise as a result. Scrapping involves the car going straight to the crusher with no stripping down first. Find out how to salvage your car.

What will happen to my scrap car?

All scrap vehicles must be recycled in line with the government regulations. The vast majority of your car will be broken down into its original materials, and these are then often fed back into the manufacturing process. Recycled materials from scrap cars are often used in the manufacture of new cars. Find out more about car recycling.

Can you scrap my specific make and model?

Of course we can! We’ve scrapped pretty much every single car make and model there is out there. We’ve seen everything from the rarest of imports to the most common hatchback seen in a supermarket car park.

Still think your car is too rare or special to scrap? Speak to our team and they’ll show you just what you can get. Find your best offers through our generator to see just how much your car could be worth.

Can my damaged, broken, missing MOT car be scrapped?

No car is too damaged to scrap. Even if yours has no current MOT or has been labelled as an insurance write off, we’ll get you an unbeatable quote in moments.

How do I tell the DVLA?

Once your car has been collected, we’ll notify the DVLA on your behalf, so you don’t need to do anything yourself. This officially ends your responsibility for the vehicle, including tax and insurance.

Do I get a Certificate of Destruction?

Yes, once your car has been recycled you’ll be issued with a Certificate of Destruction. This is your proof that the vehicle has been legally and responsibly disposed of, and that you’re no longer liable for it.

Can I scrap a car with outstanding finance?

You’ll need to settle the finance, or get written permission from the finance company, before the car can be scrapped. The lender has a legal interest in the vehicle until the agreement ends. Contact them for a settlement figure first, then come back to us for your quote.

Do I have to be there for the collection?

You do not need to be present if you are unavailable, and can nominate someone to represent you if necessary. The person representing you must be over the age of 18 with ID and proof of address. This is also the case if you are scrapping a car on behalf of someone else, such as an elderly relative or after a bereavement – although you must make this clear whilst getting a quote in this situation.

How do I get the best price for my car in Hampshire?

To get the best price, use a service like ours that provides both scrap and salvage quotes. Many older or written-off cars aren’t destined for the scrap heap; some are salvaged for parts or even fully restored. Ensure you describe the car’s condition accurately, as salvage buyers often pay more. Also, check for collection fees, as our quotes always include free collection.

Are your prices really guaranteed?

Yes. Once you accept a quote we lock the price in, so as long as the car matches the description you gave us, that’s the price you’ll be paid. 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 occasionally result in lower offers. However, our team will let you know and share why.
