Sell a damaged car

Salvage your old vehicle
Not all cars should go straight to the scrap yard. In some instances, you might find that your car has some more usable parts on it. By selling as salvage, the car will be stripped for these parts which can then be sold on separately, potentially boosting your offers in the process!
Sell a van or commercial vehicle
We know that there's much more on the roads than just cars, and even vans and commercial vehicles have a shelf life. Whether you need to scrap a Luton van or something as big as a bus, we can help you out. We can even sort out fleet disposal if needed, just speak to our team for details.
How to scrap your car in Gravesend
1. Get your quotes
Getting a quote couldn't be easier! Simply put your details into our online form to get started. All you need is a postcode and a vehicle registration number and we can use this to get your base scrap offers. This will be determined by your location and the expected weight of your car. Remember scrap prices are heavily influenced by how heavy your car is.
2. Provide us with more details
Our team will call you after you get your base offers to get more details from your car. This call is your opportunity to get an even better price. More detail means we can get you a more accurate quote depending on your car's own specific circumstances.
3. Compare and accept an offer
You'll be given a list of offers for your car, and it's now up to you to decide which one you wish to accept. In some cases your car may be able to secure a better price if it's sold as salvage to be broken down into spare parts. The choice is yours.
4. Arrange a collection
Once you've accepted a price, we'll put you in touch with one of our collection specialists close to you. Once you've arranged a mutually convenient time and location, they'll come to collect your car totally free of charge.
5. Receive payment
Once your car has been collected you'll be paid directly into your bank account via bank transfer. Providing you were honest and accurate in your description of the car, you'll receive the exact figure you were quoted, not a penny less.

How are cars scrapped?
All scrap cars are recycled in line with government regulations. Almost all of the materials from your car will be returned to its original form, allowing it to be used again in the manufacturing process. In essence, by scrapping an old car you’re helping another one to be built. Find out more about car recycling
What makes and models do you scrap?
All of them! Don’t be tricked into thinking that your car is so rare that it can’t be scrapped, any car can be sold through our system. Our team has seen it all, and we’ve scrapped near enough every single car make and model you could think of.
What is salvaging and how is it different to scrapping?
Scrap cars are sent straight to the crusher. Salvage cars are broken down for their usable parts first. These parts can then be sold on or used to get other ailing cars back on the road. For this reason, you might often find that salvage offers are greater than scrap ones purely due to the potential sell-on value of these parts and repaired cars.
Read on how to salvage your car and whether yours might be suitable.
Is my car too broken to scrap?
Definitely not – no car has too much damage to be scrapped. Cars with no current MOT or deemed insurance write offs are also perfect for our service. If you’re still not sure, give our team a call and they’ll happily guide you through the process every step of the way.
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.
