Scrap Car Comparison Mascot How to scrap your car in Slough

1. Get a quote

Find out how much your car is worth as scrap in an instant by using our price generator to get your base prices. This will be determined by your vehicle's weight and the current price for scrap metal. We'll then give you a call to learn more about your car and see if we can revalue it for salvage.

2. Describe your car

This next bit is important - accurately describe your car and we can see if you might be able to make more money by selling as salvage. Accuracy is key here as any false information will only result in a recalculation upon collection. Once you've described the car, we'll lock that price in, subject to inspection.

3. Arrange collection and get paid

With an offer accepted we'll put you in touch with one of our trusted collection agents. Our network spans 99% of UK postcodes so you can be sure you're going to get a great price and free collection with us.

What happens to scrap cars?

Government regulations require that scrap cars will be recycled in line with national environmental standards. Your car will be returned to its raw materials, which will then be recycled to be used in the building of many things including brand new cars. Find out more about car recycling.

Is salvaging the same as scrapping?

Not quite. Salvage vehicles are stripped of any reusable parts first, and these parts can then be sold on for spares or repairs. These parts add potential value to your vehicle, and as we work with salvage experts we’ll always try to see if we can get you a salvage offer alongside your scrap ones.

What are the scrap car prices in Slough?

Every price we generate, both in Slough and nationally, are generated in line with the current national rate for scrap metal and any local trends. We always check the local area, too. This means if there are any better offers around Berkshire or the surrounding areas, we’ll know about them and keep you informed.

Can I still scrap my car if it's written off or has no MOT?

Absolutely! Cars with no current MOT and those written off by insurers are some of the most common vehicles that we see come through our system on a daily basis. Whatever the problem is, we’ll get you a great price.

Can you scrap my specific make and model?

We’ve scrapped pretty much every single car make and model in the UK, so absolutely! We’ve also scrapped a fair amount of foreign imports, so no matter what it is you’re trying to offload we’ll be able to help. On the rare occasion we don’t find your make and model details we’ll escalate your quote to our specialist team to research the vehicle and find you an unbeatable price.

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.
