1. Get a quote
Simply input your postcode and vehicle registration into our quote generator and we'll get to work finding you a great price. You'll instantly see your scrap offers - based on weight and the rate for scrap metal - before we'll get in touch to discuss your car in greater detail.
2. Provide more details
When we call, you're given the opportunity to provide us with an accurate representation of your car. This allows us to recalculate your offer and see whether we can get you a better deal somewhere else, potentially even switching to a salvage offer if possible
3. Arrange collection
Once you've accepted an offer, we'll put you in touch with one of our trusted collection specialists who will arrange to come and remove your car.

What are the scrap car prices like in Cleethorpes
Every price we generate is calculated by taking the weight of your car and comparing it to the current going rate for scrap metal nationwide. This ensures that every price we offer is the most up-to-date and therefore accurate offer you’ll see.
What's the difference between scrap and salvage?
When a car is scrapped, we take a couple of basic details to get you a price. The vehicle is then collected and taken to an Authorised Treatment Facility (a scrapyard/recycling centre) where it will be crushed and recycled. Salvage quotes require a bit more information about the car, but that’s because these vehicles will be dismantled with car and have their internal parts retrieved – these parts are very valuable.
What happens to scrap cars?
Government regulations state that if your car is scrapped then the vehicle will be recycled. Nearly all of the materials will be used to build new cars in what is considered a circular automotive economy.
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.
