How to scrap your car in Norfolk.

1. Get a quote

Pop in your vehicle registration and postcode, and we will generate a quote in seconds. It really is that quick to see how much your car is worth as scrap. If the price seems lower than expected, you will have the chance to share a few extra details about the vehicle. With that information, we can check whether your car is better suited for salvage instead. If it qualifies, it could be sold for parts rather than crushed for scrap, which often means a higher payout for you.

2. More information

If you want to sell your car as salvage instead of scrap, we’ll need a few more details. When prompted, you can answer some quick questions about its condition. These will tell us more about the state of key components like the engine, gearbox, clutch, and other valuable parts. Providing honest and accurate information helps us build a clear picture of your car and ensures the price you’re offered is fair and reliable. Once you’re happy with the valuation and accept the offer, that price is guaranteed - no last-minute changes or surprises fees.

3. Collection & payment

Once you have accepted an offer, whether for scrap or salvage, you can choose a collection time and location that suits you best. Simply pick a day and place that works for your schedule. Can't be there on a certain day to hand over the keys? No problem. Need the vehicle collected from a garage because it's broken down? That's fine too, as long as the collection truck can access it easily. After the vehicle has been collected, your payment will be transferred directly to your bank account. In most cases, the money arrives on the very same day, making the whole experience smooth and straightforward.

What are scrap cars worth in Norfolk?

The value of a scrap car is linked directly to the weight of the vehicle, and a few other factors. Therefore, every vehicle will have a different value.

Why is it like this? Well, scrap buyers are essentially buying your vehicle for its scrap metal. Heavier vehicles have more metal in them. So, a Transit van is likely to be worth more than a MINI. However, other factors like the age, condition, and specific make & model of the vehicle also play a role in pricing it up – especially if you’re looking to sell it as salvage instead!

Can I sell my specific make/model of car?

Yes. You can sell any vehicle with Scrap Car Comparison, even if it’s a foreign import, has been heavily customised, or is generally just a bit rare! Our team have years of experience so there’s a good chance we’ve dealt with the same or similar kind of car in the past. But, even if we haven’t, we’ll still be able to use our vast network of buyers to track down the best price going for your unusual vehicle.

What happens to my car after I scrap it?

When you sell your car as scrap, it is taken to an Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF) where it is crushed and its materials are separated out. These materials are then recycled, as required by UK law.

Scrap vs salvage differences

Scrapping involves crushing the vehicle completely so that it can be completely recycled. This process is relatively straightforward.

Salvaging is a bit more complex for the buyer, as they need to break the car down carefully to retrieve the parts inside. These parts can then be reused or resold.

Can I still sell my car if it's heavily damaged?

Absolutely! Any amount of damage can be dealt with by Scrap Car Comparison. Even if your car is a write off or has been sat in your garage for years awaiting repairs. Get a quote today and see what that old banger is worth in seconds!

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.
