Step by step guide
1: Get an instant quote
All you need to do is submit your vehicle’s registration number and your postcode using our online form. Using those basic details, we’ll find you the best price on offer for your car. Initially, the price you’re offered will be a scrap value. However, with a few more details, we can get you a salvage value – this price takes into account the value of the spare parts a buyer could harvest from your vehicle
2: Provide more details
Our friendly team will be in touch shortly to gather up a bit of extra information about the condition of your car. The info you provide here will allow our team to build up an accurate picture of how damaged your car is, and which parts might be reusable. If you think your car is suited for salvage and could be sold for spares and repairs, you could get a much better offer!
3: Accept an offer
Next up, it’s time to accept your offer – if you’re happy with it, of course! Broken, damaged vehicles come through our system all the time, so every Authorised Treatment Facility that we work with will be fully capable of disposing of your car properly. That means recycling the destroyed parts and retrieving spare parts that are still in good condition.
4: Arrange collection
We’re partnered with a huge network of damaged, broken and ‘spares & repairs’ vehicle buyers who are fully authorised to dispose of your car. They’re also equipped to collect your car from you once they’ve bought it! You won’t need to stress over transporting your old motor, nor will you need to worry about any cash being deducted from what you’re owed – collection is always FREE

What happens if my vehicle is too good for scrap?
If you’re looking at a car that’s maybe only just failed its MOT or that can be back on the road with a little work that you just can’t commit to, you might be thinking that sending it to the scrap pile might be a step too far.

That’s where we come in! Almost 40% of all vehicles we process are actually sold as salvage, rather than scrap. This means your car will be sold and either used as spare parts or repaired itself and put back on the road. In almost all cases, salvage vehicles fetch a much higher price than their scrap equivalents, so while your car might be too good to scrap, never rule out a potential salvage sale!
To find out how much your car could be worth as a salvage vehicle, pick up the phone and speak to one of our advisors today. They’re experts in this field and will be more than happy to talk you through every step of the process.
How Do I Receive Payment For My Car?

Payment terms vary from buyer to buyer, but in most cases you will receive instant payment upon collection. The majority of our buyers pay via instant bank transfer. The safety of our customers is paramount and, in line with the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013, our buyers will not make payments in cash for vehicles destined to be scrapped or dismantled.
Will Salvaging My Car Impact The Environment?
It’s a common thought when you scrap your vehicle that your vehicle gets put into a crusher, turned into a cube and the metal is melted to be made into more cars; however, the process is a lot more intricate than that. Below you can see just how many different ways your car will be recycled once it’s scrapped.
Scrapping cars has a balanced impact, as whilst taking cars with dangerous emission levels off the road is positive for the environment, it also uses energy to recycle those vehicles.
