How to scrap your car in Tadworth

1. Get a quote

Simply enter your postcode and vehicle registration number into our online form right here on this page. Submit your details and you'll be given a price for your car in seconds. This is the scrap valuation of your car, but if you give us some extra info when prompted, we'll see if your car is better suited to salvage. Salvage prices can be a LOT higher than scrap!

2. More information

As mentioned above, you may be able to get a better price for your car by giving us a few more details when asked. These details will tell us more about the condition of your car, which allows us to determine if it's suitable for salvage. Salvage cars are used for spares & repairs, so the more you can tell us about the condition of your vehicle, the more accurate the price we find will be.

3. Accept an offer

Once you've accepted the price offered, you'll be able to choose the date & location for collection. You don't need to do anything - the car will be picked up by the buyer using professional equipment and expert training. After the vehicle has been loaded up, the collection will be confirmed and your payment will be processed. It'll be paid directly into your bank account, typically the very same day.

What is a scrap car worth in Tadworth?

The prices we find for our customers are based on the UK average valuation of raw scrap metal. This value can change daily, so it’s impossible to give a ‘one-size-fits-all’ figure to answer this question. However, the price of any scrap vehicle is primarily influenced by its weight, as heavier vehicles are made up from more metal.

Salvage vs scrap

Scrap vehicles are crushed, so the value comes purely from the raw materials that are retrieved. It’s mostly the metal that our buyers want to get their hands on. Salvage cars are broken down more carefully, allowing our buyers to pull out surviving parts which they can reuse or resell. As such, salvage cars are more valuable.

What happens to my scrap car?

Your car will be recycled when you sell it as scrap. By law, it has to be recycled to minimise the impact that the automotive industry has on the planet. We only work with scrap & salvage specialists who follow this rule.

My car is a rare make/model - can I still sell it?

Any and all cars can be sold with Scrap Car Comparison! Over the years, we’ve bought all sorts of vehicles, so don’t worry – even if you drive a foreign import or an obscure, rare model, we can get you a price when it’s time to sell!

Can I sell my non-running, damaged car with no MOT?

Yes. You can sell your car that’s damaged, doesn’t have a valid MOT, or has even been written off! Get a quote from Scrap Car Comparison now.

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.
