Scrap your car
Sell your vehicle as scrap if it’s reached the end of its working life. It’s quick, easy & profitable for you! All you need to give us is the car’s reg & your postcode, then we can present you with a selection of quotes from local buyers.
Sell a damaged car
Damage doesn’t matter to us here at Scrap Car Comparison. Scrapes & dents or massive crash damage, we can find you a buyer that’s interested and prepared to pay good money.
Salvage your old vehicle
If it’s too good to scrap, salvaging it might be a better option. This saves any parts that can be reused from being recycled. The best part? Salvage cars are worth more that scrap, so you can expect higher quotes!
Sell a van or commercial vehicle
Cars aren’t the only thing on our agenda either; we also have buyers on our network who are eager to purchase vans, trucks, buses and even more niche commercial vehicles!

Scrap Locations in Solihull
Solihull is an area of the West Midlands that’s famous for its cars – in this case, Jaguars & Land Rovers. But while many cars are built in the town, plenty are also disposed of. That’s where our help comes in handy.
Solihull’s drivers can use our service to get rid of their old vehicle from Handsworth Wood to Shirley and all postcodes from B36 through to B94.
On the off-chance there’s nobody near your location who are able to collect when you need us, we can even arrange for a scrap buyer from a neighbouring town to buy you car. Collection will still be free:

What are the scrap car prices in Solihull?
The good news is that your scrap car value is directly linked to the weight of your car. And those prices reflect the national average for scrap metal in the UK. Our network of approved scrap yards in Solihull and the wider West Midlands county offer competitive prices for your vehicle. If your car is salvaged, rather than scrapped, then we’ll find the best buyer in the country offering the best price nationally.
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 long have you been operating in the Solihull area?
Whilst Scrap Car Comparison has been around since 2016, many of our associated scrap & salvage dealers in Solihull have actually been in operation for far longer. Decades of experience have allowed to refine their processes to make collection and removal as easy as can be.
Will the scrap yard offer me any support on the paperwork?
Many people scrapping their cars often need some advice on the paperwork after the car has been collected. The scrap yard staff that we work with are always available to answer any questions when they collect the vehicle. We also have a wealth of expert car scrapping guides on our blog here.
Is it better to use a scrap yard which is local to me?
The short answer is yes, because the area an individual yard will cover is governed purely by miles and logistics. For example, a yard in Solihull will easily cover the broader Midlands area, even up to Wolverhampton and Sutton Coldfield. However, the costs and time associated with going further, and the low margins for scrap yards is why we will instead put you in touch with a partner that’s even more local to you.
Scrap Car Comparison automatically searches for prices in and around your exact location and our comparison engine finds the best option based on where you are weighing in price as well as logistics and speedy collection.
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.
