Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

Can I scrap my car in Newcastle?

Yes, you can scrap your car in Newcastle, but did you know that we also have 100% coverage across the whole of the Tyne & Wear region? We have a number of scrap yards covering your area that are able to offer the most competitive prices, free collection and great customer service.

What are the scrap car prices in Newcastle?

The good news is that scrap car prices are directly linked to the weight of your car or van. And those prices reflect the national average across Tyne & Wear and the wider UK. Our network of approved scrap yards offer competitive prices for your vehicle. If your car is salvaged, rather than scrapped, then we’ll find the best buyer across the United Kingdom to get you the best price nationally.

Can you scrap my specific make and model?

We scrap all well known car makes and models across the country. That includes the newest Tesla electric vehicles, various supercars and older non-runners. We can even scrap imports, classic cars, modified cars and carry out commercial fleet disposal. We use your registration plate to find the specific model and price according to the manufacturer’s weight of the vehicle. On the rare occasion we don’t find your make and model details we’ll escalate your quote to our specialist team to research the vehicle and find you an unbeatable price.

Can my damaged, broken, missing MOT car be scrapped?

Yes we can scrap just about any car or van in any condition. We might need to adjust the prices we offer if there are parts of your vehicle missing. But if you have a damaged car, a car with no current MOT or even if it’s an insurance write off we can get you a price and arrange a collection.

How is salvaging different from scrapping?

Car salvaging is the process of reclaiming the vehicle so it isn’t dismantled and recycled, but instead fixed or stripped for parts. Salvaging nearly always gets you a better price for your car or van, but we do need to know more about the car’s condition. Find out how to salvage your car.

What will happen to my scrap car?

If your car is scrapped then the vehicle will be recycled. This means all of the components and parts will be stripped and processed in line with national environmental standards. Nearly all of the materials will be used to build new cars in what is considered a circular automotive economy. Find out more about car recycling.

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.
