Sell a car as salvage

Not all broken cars need to be scrapped. If your car still has some working parts, you could get an even better price by selling as salvage. Salvage is an industry term for what many refer to as selling for spares and repairs. The spare parts carry extra value, which is where your larger offers can come from.

Sell a van or commercial vehicle

Vans, trucks, buses and other commercial vehicles can be sold with Scrap Car Comparison in the same way as a car would be. Simply get a quote and find out what your vehicle - or an entire fleet - is worth. Commercial vehicles, which are usually large, are often worth more than an average car, too!

What's the difference between scrap and salvage?

Car salvaging is the process of reclaiming the vehicle so it isn’t dismantled and recycled, but instead fixed or stripped for parts. 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.

Can you scrap any car?

We’ve scrapped every car make or model you can think of. Whether you’ve got one of the most common cars on the road or a rare and exotic vehicle, we can get you a great price. If you think your car may be too obscure to scrap, our team will be happy to prove you wrong! Just give us a call today.

What are scrap car prices like in Louth?

All of our scrap car prices are based on national averages. The weight of your car will be combined with the current rate for scrap vehicles. We’ll also check prices in and around Alton to ensure you’re getting the very best offer for your car.

What happens to scrap cars?

By law, all scrap cars must be recycled. Almost all of the materials from your old vehicle will be used again in the manufacturing process of new vehicles. Therefore scrapping an old car actually helps new ones to be built!

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.
