Scrap Car Comparison Mascot Scrap car services in Horsham

We do a lot more than just scrap cars – here’s what we can do in Horsham

Scrap your car

The core service we provide, prepare for one of the easiest car sales you've ever seen. With just a postcode and registration number you'll receive offers in an instant. We regularly get cars sold as scrap within 72 hours!

Sell a damaged vehicle

Selling damaged vehicles doesn’t need to be stressful. Simply give our team your details and we’ll do the hard work. It’s just as easy as selling for scrap and we’ll still get it sold faster than any private sale without fear of having to haggle the price down - which we'll never do.

Sell a vehicle as salvage

Some cars are simply too good to go to the scrap pile immediately. Some will be stripped of their usable parts to be sold on as spares and repairs. This is called selling for salvage and can often get you a larger price for your car.

Sell a van or commercial vehicle

Size doesn't matter with us. No matter what you're trying to sell, from vans to trucks, we can get you a great price. The service is identical to selling a car, and we can even help you dispose of a fleet of vehicles if needed.


Scrap Car Comparison Mascot How to scrap a car in Horsham

1. Get a quote

Simply put your details into our online quote generator to see your initial scrap prices. All we need is a postcode and vehicle registration to find your initial quotes, which will be calculated based on weight. We'll then get in touch with you to see if we can boost that offer at all.

2. Provide more details

Our call gives you an opportunity to boost your offer. Provide an accurate description of your car and we'll have a look to see if it could be reassessed as a salvage vehicle. Even if it's scrap, we'll still see if we can squeeze a little more out of it for you. Accuracy is key, as from this point your price will be guaranteed, subject to inspection.

3. Collection & payment

With a price agreed and locked in, we'll put you in touch with one of our collection specialists, who will come out directly to you at a mutually convenient time. Once the vehicle is loaded onto the back of the truck - following a brief inspection - your money will be transferred directly into your bank account.

What are scrap car prices in Horsham?

Every scrap price we offer is based on the weight of your car compared with the current value of scrap metal nationwide. Additional factors such as the car’s make, model, age and condition do also impact values, but this is more of a case with salvage cars than scrap. The most important parameter for scrap value is always the car’s weight.

What happens to scrap cars?

All scrap cars are recycled. This is a legal requirement. In many cases, you’ll find your car will actually be turned back into raw materials to help build brand new vehicles. Find out more about car recycling.

Can my damaged, MOT failure or insurance write off be scrapped?

No matter how badly damaged your car is, it can be scrapped. We don’t mind if it’s battered and bruised beyond recognition or just has a couple of scratches, we’ll still get a great price for it. We’ll also be able to help if your car has no current MOT or is deemed an insurance write off. We’ll get you a great price no matter what it’s been through.

Can you scrap any make or model of car?

We can scrap anything and everything! From best selling Volkswagen or Vauxhall hatchbacks to the rarest of sportscars or exotic imports, we’ll get you a great price. Size and condition doesn’t matter – whatever you’ve got we’ll be able to provide you with competitive quotes in the quickest way possible.

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.
