Scrap Car Comparison Mascot FAQs

What are the scrap car prices in Southampton?

Any scrap car price we quote will be based on the current national average for scrap metal. This price will also be hugely influenced by the weight of your car. Thanks to our national network, we’ll be able to compare this offer to those in and around the Southampton area. We’ll find you the very best price available in Hampshire.

How is salvaging different from scrapping?

Scrap vehicles are simply that, destined to end up on the scrap pile. Salvage vehicles are instead broken down for their parts first. Your offers are likely to be higher for a salvage car purely because there’s a greater potential return on investment for your spare parts. Find out how to salvage your car.

What will happen to my scrap car?

All scrap cars must be recycled in line with government regulations. Once your car has been refined to its original materials, the vast majority will be reused in the automotive manufacturing industry. In effect, your old scrap car will help build new ones. Find out more about car recycling.

Can you scrap my specific make and model?


We can scrap any car make and model on the market. Whatever it is and wherever it’s from, we’ll scrap it. From the blandest of hatchbacks to the most exotic supercar, you’ll be amazed at what we’ve seen come through our system.

If you still think your car is too rare to be scrapped, give our team a call and they’ll happily give you all of your options.

Can my damaged, broken, missing MOT car be scrapped?

Any car can be scrapped, no matter how badly damaged it may be. We can even get great prices for cars with no current MOT and those listed as an insurance write off. Whatever the problem is, we’ll get you a great price.

Use our quote generator to get your best price now or call us on 03333 44 99 50. This number is available free of charge, seven days a week.

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.
