Scrap your car

Scrap your car with Scrap Car Comparison and you'll get great service and an even better deal! Turn your old banger into pure profit with easy. All we need is your vehicle reg & postcode, then we'll connect you with scrap buyers who want your car!

Salvage your old vehicle

Selling as salvage is a great alternative to scrapping, if your car is still good enough to have some of its parts rescued from the scrap heap. Those surviving parts will be stripped out for use on other cars, and you'll get better offers!

Sell a damaged car

Damage is something we see on almost every vehicle that's sold through Scrap Car Comparison. We expect it, and so do the buyers that we partner with. So, don't think your write off has zero value - we can still get you a cracking price for it!

Sell a van or commercial vehicle

Vans and other large commercial vehicles, like buses or trucks, can be scrapped with us too! In fact, you can even dispose of an entire fleet of commercial vehicles in one go. The best part? These vehicles are usually heavier than your average car, which means more value as scrap!

How much will I get for my scrap car in Bishop's Stortford?

The good news is that scrap car prices are directly linked to the weight of your car. Got something bigger than a car? We can price and scrap your van too. And those prices reflect the national average for scrap metal in the UK. Our network of approved scrap yards in Bishop’s Stortford and the wider Essex county offer competitive prices for your vehicle. If your car is salvaged, rather than scrapped, then we’ll find the best buyer in the country offering the best price nationally.

What happens to my car once it's scrapped?

If your car is scrapped then the vehicle will be recycled. This means all of the components and parts will be stripped and processed in line with national environmental standards. Nearly all of the materials will be used to build new cars in what is considered a circular automotive economy. Find out more about car recycling.

Salvage vs scrap - what's the difference?

Car salvaging is the process of reclaiming the vehicle so it isn’t dismantled and recycled, but instead fixed or stripped for parts. Salvaging nearly always gets you a better price for your car or van, but we do need to know more about the car’s condition. Find out how to salvage your car.

How long have you operated in Bishop's Stortford?

Whilst Scrap Car Comparison has been around since 2016, many of our associated scrap & salvage dealers in Bishop’s Stortford have actually been in operation for far longer. Decades of experience have allowed them to refine their processes to make collection and removal as easy as can be.

Can I get support with paperwork?

Many people scrapping their cars often need some advice on the paperwork after the car has been collected. The scrap yard staff that we work with are always available to answer any questions when they collect the vehicle. We also have a wealth of expert car scrapping guides on our blog here.

Should I use a scrapyard that's local?

The short answer is yes, because the area an individual yard will cover is governed purely by miles and logistics. For example, a yard in Bishop’s Stortford will easily cover the broader Essex area, even up to Braintree and Billericay. However, the costs and time associated with going further, and the low margins for scrap yards is why we will instead put you in touch with a partner that’s even more local to you.

Scrap Car Comparison automatically searches for prices in and around your exact location and our comparison engine finds the best option based on where you are weighing in price as well as logistics and speedy collection.

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.
