Sell a damaged car

Sell a car for salvage
Just because you think your vehicle's done for doesn't mean it's got nothing left to give. We'll sell your car to a specialist who wants cars just like yours to break it apart for spares, or even to repair it. The extra value found in these reusable parts means you could get a much better price than your initial scrap offer.

How to scrap a car in Hereford
1. Get a valuation
The first thing you’ll want to do is use our generator. We’ll get you instant prices to form our base offer. Our team will then call you to go over any more details you wish to give and talk about where we go from there.
2. Provide further details
When we call you you’re given the chance to boost your offer. Describe the condition of your car in as much detail as possible, and this will also help us lock in your final offer. Once happy, you can accept your best price.
3. Arrange collection and payment
As soon as an offer is accepted we’ll start making arrangements with the collection agents. They’ll arrange a mutually convenient time with you to collect the car. Once it’s gone, the money will be transferred to your bank account.

What are the scrap car prices in Hereford?
All scrap car prices are determined by the current going rate for scrap metal and averages in and around Herefordshire. The price of a scrap vehicle is hugely influenced by its weight – more metal, more money. We’ll look around Hereford and the wider county to ensure that you’re getting the very best price possible for your scrap vehicle.
What happens to scrap cars?
The law dictates that all scrap cars must be recycled. The vast majority of your car will be broken down to be used again. Quite often these will be used to make new cars.
What's the difference between scrap and salvage?
Scrap cars will go straight to the scrap yard to be recycled. Car salvaging, however, is the process of reclaiming the vehicle so it isn’t immediately dismantled and recycled, but either stripped for parts or even fixed itself. 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.
Is any car too rare to scrap?
We can scrap any make and model of car you can think of. Our team has seen it all – from supercars to superminis, we can guarantee great prices for any vehicle.
How do I get the best price for my car?
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.
