Scrapping & salvage differences

When a car is scrapped, it’ll simply be crushed so that the different materials can be sorted out. Metal is the important one, but stuff like glass, plastic and rubber will also be picked out and recycled. Salvage, however, involves breaking down the car with more care so that the components can be retrieved. These parts will then be sold on.

How much is a scrap car worth in Chertsey?

The price of a scrap car varies in Chertsey and around the UK. This is because each make & model is worth a different amount (mostly based on their size) but also because the value of raw scrap metal also fluctuates. This material is what the buyer of a scrap car is really after – your car will be crushed so that the metal can be retrieved. To the right person (our buyers) scrap metal is very valuable!

What happens to my scrapped car?

When you sell your car as scrap, it’ll be taken away to an Authorised Treatment Facility. These are scrap yards that are fully certified and trained to dispose of vehicles safely and in-line with the law. Your car will be recycled.

Any make or model can be scrapped using the Scrap Car Comparison service. Whether it’s a foreign import or a rare classic, the chances are we’ve scrapped one before! In almost two decades of business, we’ve learned how to get the best price for whatever the drivers of Surrey and the UK can throw at us! Get a quote today no matter what kind of vehicle you’re selling.

My car is heavily damaged - can I still sell it?

Yes, you can. Our service deals with cars that have suffered all sorts of crash damage or mechanical problems. Written off in an accident? Failed an MOT? We’ll still get you a quote 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.
