Scrap car services in Mansfield
Here’s a quick rundown of everything we can do for you and your scrap car
Scrap your car
The quickest and easiest car sale you'll ever see. Simply put your vehicle registration and postcode into our quote generator and see just how much your car could be worth. We'll find you a price within 30 seconds and the entire process - including collection - could be completed in just a couple of days.
Sell your car for salvage
Some cars have too much like left in them to go straight to the scrap pile instantly. That's where a salvage sale comes in, although you might know it as "selling for spares and repairs". Basically, your car will be stripped down of its reusable parts before it's scrapped, allowing you to get a little extra cash thanks to those spare part sales.
Sell a damaged car
Selling damaged vehicles is difficult, we know that, and that's why we're here. We'll dive into our network of specialists to get you a sale, and we guarantee you a great price no matter what. Don't waste time trying to sell privately, use one of the buyers literally waiting for a car like yours at our disposal today.
Sell a van or commercial vehicle
Need to scrap something a bit bigger than a car? We can absolutely help with that, too! Whatever you're looking to sell, we can get you a buyer in an instant, no matter what it is or how big it might be. Trucks, buses, coaches - you name it, we've scrapped it! We can even help dispose of an old fleet of vehicles too!
How to scrap a car in Mansfield
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. Describe your car
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. Collection & Payment
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. After a brief inspection to ensure the car is as you described, it'll be loaded onto the back of their trailer and taken away. At this point the money will be transferred directly into your bank account.

What are scrap car prices in Mansfield?
All of our scrap prices are based on the current rate for scrap metal and the expected weight of your car. This is because a scrap car sale is, in effect, just the sale of a large lump of scrap metal. We’ll discuss your specific car with you in more detail to see if you could possibly get a better price by selling as salvage.
What happens to scrap cars?
All scrap cars must be recycled in line with government and environmental regulations. Your car will be broken down and returned to its original materials. These materials will then be refined and returned for use in the manufacturing process once again. These raw materials are often used to build brand new cars, meaning by scrapping yours your actually helping build a new one.
Can you scrap my specific make of car?
Absolutely! We can scrap anything and everything, no matter what it is. Even if you’re looking at one of the rarest cars or most sought after sports cars, we can get you a great price no matter what. From imports to the most basic of hatchbacks, whatever you’re selling we’ll get it sold in a matter of moments.
How do I get the best price for my car?
To get the best price, use a service like ours that provides both scrap and salvage quotes. Many older or written-off cars aren't destined for the scrap heap; some are salvaged for parts or even fully restored. Ensure you describe the car's condition accurately, as salvage buyers often pay more. Also, check for collection fees, as our quotes always include free collection.
Are your prices really guaranteed?
Yes. Once you accept a quote we lock the price in, so as long as the car matches the description you gave us, that's the price you'll be paid. 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 occasionally result in lower offers, however our team will let you know and share why.
