Scrap car services in Chichester
Here’s everything we can do for you and your old cars in and around Chichester
Scrap your car
Our core service, sell a broken old car faster than you'd ever imagine by selling as scrap. Simply get a quote and we'll find your instant prices. Thanks to our nationwide network of buyers, your car could be sold in as little as three days.
Sell a car as salvage
If your car's still got a little life in some of its parts, then you could make even more money by selling it as salvage. This is effectively an industry term for selling it as "spares and repairs". Your car will be stripped of its usable parts and this extra revenue stream is what helps salvage vehicles usually get better offers.
Sell a damaged car
We know that selling cars with damage can be a tiresome task, so instead of trying to explain the issue to every single interested party let us find you a buyer instantly. We have specialists waiting for a car just like yours, so don't delay and find your quote now.

There's no size limit here at Scrap Car Comparison and we've helped sell or scrap everything from vans to buses, lorries to trucks and everything in between. Even if you need to dispose of a fleet of images, we're here to help. Just give our team a call to see what we can do for you.
How to scrap your car in Chichester
1. Get a quote
Simply put your postcode and vehicle registration number into our online quote generator to see your initial prices. These will be scrap quotes based on the weight of your vehicle and the current rate for scrap metal nationwide. We'll then give you a call to discuss your options going forward.
2. Provide more details
Our call is your chance to enhance your offer and get a more tailored quote. The answers you give should be accurate, as they'll be the basis of your offer from this point onwards. We'll take these details to see if we could even get you a better price as a salvage offer. Once you're happy with an offer, we'll lock that price in.
3. Payment and collection
With an offer now accepted, we'll put you in touch with one of our trusted collection specialists who will arrange a convenient time to come and collect it. Following a brief inspection to ensure the car is as you described, it will be loaded onto the truck and you will be paid via bank transfer there and then.

Our service covers Chichester in its entirety, which means we can collect anywhere from the PO18 postcode areas to PO20 and beyond.

What are the scrap car prices in Chichester?
Every single quote we provide is directly linked to the weight of your car. All of those prices reflect the national average for scrap metal in the UK, but we’ll also check our network of approved scrap yards in West Sussex and the wider local areas to 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.
What's the difference between scrap and salvage?
Salvage vehicles will be broken down into parts first rather than just sent straight for scrap. These parts will then be used to help repair other broken down vehicles. In some cases, the salvage vehicle may be repaired itself. As a result, the value of a salvage car is often higher than you’d get for a standard scrap vehicle.
What happens to scrap vehicles?
Due to government and environmental regulations, the majority of all scrap vehicles must be recycled. You car will be broken down and its parts refined back to the original materials. These materials will then be reused, most likely to help build newer vehicles in what is known as a circular economy.
Are there any makes or models that can't be scrapped?
Absolutely not! We can find a scrap or salvage buyer for absolutely every car out there. Whether it’s a big gas guzzling US-style pickup truck or something more suited to the small British city streets, we can scrap it all! Just get in touch and see how much your old car could be worth.
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.
