Scrap your car

We have an extensive network of approved scrap yards around the country just waiting for a car like yours. Using national averages, we’ll get you the very best price for your car based on the weight for your car, taking into consideration any local trends.

Sell a car as salvage

Think your car has some life left in it, but don't have the time or money to get it back in working order? Selling as salvage is the best option! This means your car will be stripped of useful parts, or possibly even restored and driven age. Either way, you're likely to get more money for it!

Sell a damaged car

Selling a damaged vehicle is never an easy task, especially explaining the problem every time to possible customers who are only going to try and haggle you down. Just one call to us will get you a guaranteed sale in a matter of moments.

Sell a van or commercial vehicle

As we mentioned, we don't just help scrap cars. If you've got something a little on the larger side, be it a van, bus, coach, truck or anything, we can help you out! Our service is just as quick and easy no matter what it is you're trying to sell.

What are the scrap car prices in Welling?

Every scrap car price we generate is based on the weight of your car and the current rate for scrap vehicles nationwide. We’ll also check local trends as well as taking into account the condition of your car if it could be sold as a salvage vehicle.

What happens to scrap cars?

All scrap cars are recycled in line with government regulations and environmental standards. The car will be dismantled and returned back to its raw materials, which can be used again in the manufacturing process – usually for new vehicles.

Can you scrap a written off car or a car with no MOT?

Some of the most common cars we see through our system are MOT failures, so you can absolutely scrap a car that has no valid certificate. We can also help sell a car that’s been written off by your insurer. No level of damage is too much!

What's the difference between scrap and salvage?

When a car is salvaged, it’s dismantled for usable parts and sold for repairs. Selling as salvage can fetch a better price than scrapping, as buyers see a higher potential return. We only need a few extra details to get your car salvaged instead of scrapped.

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.
