Our services in Westbury

Scrap Car Comparison offers the following services in Westbury, Wiltshire.

Scrap your car

Sell your car with ease no matter what condition it's in. In just 30 seconds you can have a price for your old banger, offered by fair-paying and professional scrap buyers in your local area.

Salvage your old vehicle

Sell your car for parts and make even more money! Salvaging means your vehicle won't be crushed - instead, it'll be dismantled and sold (or reused) piece by piece. Each bit holds its own value, which is why salvaging gets your more cash than scrapping a car whole.

Sell your damaged car

If your car has been damaged, whether that's visibly after an accident or internally via a mechanical failure, you can sell it with Scrap Car Comparison now. We'll get you a price no matter what state your car is in, because our buyers - who specialise in scrap & salvage vehicles - know and expect the cars they're buying to be damaged in one way or another!

Scrap a van or commercial vehicle

If you run a business, it's important to get the most from every asset - that includes your company commercial vehicles. If your van, truck, bus, or whatever else isn't pulling its weight any more, maybe it's time for an upgrade? Scrap it with Scrap Car Comparison and we'll get you a great price no matter what kind of vehicle it is or where you're based. Want to know what your van is worth? Get a no-obligation quote today.

How to scrap your car in Westbury

1. Get a quote

It's dead easy to get a quote from Scrap Car Comparison; all you need to do is enter your vehicle's reg number and your postcode, then we'll generate you a price in seconds using our huge database of vehicle's we've dealt with in the past. The value you're presented with in the scrap value of your car, so if you think it could be better, you could get more for selling the vehicle as salvage instead. You can do that with us too! You simply need to give us a little bit more information about the vehicle when asked.

2. More details

Giving us more information about your car allows us to build up a more accurate impression of the kind of condition it's in. This is important when selling as salvage because we can figure out how much your car is worth based on the parts that our salvage specialist buyers will be able to remove from it. Don't worry, we don't need to ask you a ton of extra questions! The process is still very simple, and can get you significantly better offers!

3. Collection & payment

With an offer accepted, your price becomes guaranteed. This price is exactly what you'll be paid at the point of collection, so you can start planning how you'll spend the cash ahead of time! Collection is totally free, and you'll be able to choose when you'd like it to take place. Plus, you can even pick a place for the car to be collected from - it just needs to be accessible for the truck that'll tow/carry your vehicle away! When the car is loaded up, your payment will be processed and paid directly into your bank account. Generally this happens the very same day.

What are the scrap prices around Westbury?

Scrap cars in Westbury 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 - what's the difference?

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 Westbury, 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.
