Our services in Devizes

Scrap your car

Sell your old, damaged, broken down or even written off car to a professional scrap vehicle dealer now! Whatever condition your motor is in, we'll get you a quote in seconds, with great prices offered every time.

Salvage your old vehicle

Salvaging your vehicle means selling it for spare parts - so it'll be taken apart and anything still useful will be stripped out to be put into other vehicles that can be repaired. The good news is that salvage cars are MUCH more valuable than scrap cars, and your quotes will reflect that!

Sell your damaged car

Damaged vehicles are, of course, very common here at Scrap Car Comparison! If your car has been damaged to any degree - even if it's a complete mess that's been written off - then find out what it's worth by getting a quote now. Our buyers are experts at dealing with damaged cars, so they'll still pay good money for yours!

Scrap a van or commercial vehicle

If you run your own business, you probably understand how important a reliable commercial vehicle is. You don't want your work van, car, truck, or other kind of vehicle giving out on you while you're on a job, so scrap it before that happens and put the money you earn toward a newer one!

How to scrap your car in Devizes

1. Get a quote

Get a quote from Scrap Car Comparison with ease! Simply enter your vehicle's reg and your postcode into the form right here on this page! In seconds, you'll be presented with a price for your car that's primarily based around the UK's scrap metal value at that time. The price you're given initially is the scrap value of your car. Think you should be getting more? Give us a few extra details when asked and we'll check if your car could instead be salvaged. This means your car will be used for parts, rather than crushed, which will get you MUCH better offers!

2. The extra details

When asked, you can give us extra information about your vehicle to see if it's suitable for salvaging instead of scrapping. This will get you a lot more money than selling it as scrap! The details we require are nothing too complicated, and you don't need to be a mechanic to understand what we're asking you for. We'll just need to know about whether the car still has its engine, and all four wheels, and stuff like that! So, it's well worth taking a few extra minutes to give us more infomation because it could land you with much higher offers from our buyers!

3. Collection & payment

Accept an offer from one of our buyers and that price is then guaranteed, so you know exactly what figure to expect to be paid. There will be a brief check of the car at the point of collection just to ensure the details you gave us were accurate, then the vehicle will be loaded up and taken away to the scrap yard - and remember, this is all part of the service, with no extra cost. Once the car has been collected, your payment will be processed and paid directly into your bank.

What are the scrap prices around Devizes?

Scrap cars in Devizes are priced up based on the value of scrap metal. The overall value of scrap metal changes regularly, but we keep our finger on the pulse so that we know how much you should be getting for your vehicle. Generally speaking, heavier cars are worth more than lighter ones. This is simply because heavier vehicles are made from more metal.

Scrap vs salvage

Salvage cars are broken down and taken apart, with their parts being resold or reused in other vehicles. Some salvage vehicles are actually restored themselves, too, at the expense of the buyer.

Scrap cars are disposed of entirely. These vehicles will be crushed whole and their materials will be recycled.

What happens to my car after it's scrapped?

If you scrap your car with us in Devizes, it’ll be disposed of by one of the Authorised Treatment Facilities on our network. These facilities get rid of old cars the ‘proper’ way; that means it’s crushed and recycled in line with all government regulations. The process is done professionally and safely.

Can I sell my damaged car even if it's written off or failed an MOT?

Absolutely! We’ll take any and all cars here at Scrap Car Comparison, so don’t be afraid to get a quote even if your car has seen far better days! Write offs, non-runners, MOT failures, and whatever else you can think of are all scrapable with Scrap Car Comparison!

Can I sell my specific model of car with Scrap Car Comparison?

Scrap Car Comparison buys all vehicles, regardless of make or model. We’ve got an experienced team and an extensive database of vehicles already on our system, so there’s a good chance we’ve scrapped or salvaged a motor just like yours already! So, if you drive a foreign import or a one-off special edition, you can get a quote with us and use our service today.

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.
