Scrap Car Comparison Mascot Scrap car services in Margate

We do a lot more than just helping sell scrap cars! Here’s what we can do for you in Margate and the wider Kent county.

Scrap your car

Get an instant price for your old car by using our system. Not only will the quotes come through in moments, we'll even get your car sold and removed in just a handful of days - the fastest and easiest car sale you'll ever see!

Sell a vehicle for salvage

Car too good to scrap? We can still get you a great quote by selling your car as salvage. This means your old set of wheels will be stripped for parts, potentially boosting your offers as a result of the extra revenue that comes from spares and repairs.

Sell a broken or damaged car

Selling cars with damage is never an easy task, what with explaining the condition multiple times and never knowing if you're dealing with time wasters or not. Be smart and sell your car with us - explain the issue once and guarantee a buyer in an instant.

Sell a van or commercial vehicle

Bigger vehicles go wrong too, and we're here when they do. Get an unbeatable quote for your van, truck, bus, coach... whatever! We can even help you dispose of a fleet of vehicles if necessary, too! Just give us a call to discuss.

Scrap Car Comparison Mascot How to scrap a car in Margate

1. Get a quote

Use our online generator to get an instant quote for your vehicle. All you need is a postcode and a registration number to calculate your prices, with figures based on the current rate for scrap metal but locally and nationwide.

2. Provide more details

Our team will give you a call to discuss your car in greater detail. This is your chance to potentially boost your price and to see whether you might be able to sell as salvage. It's important that you're honest at this stage, as an honest assessment will guarantee your price on collection.

3. Accept an offer and arrange collection

Once you've got a price you're happy with, it's up to you to accept the offer that best suits you. Once you've locked in that price, we'll put you in touch with one of our collection agents to come and remove your car for free.

4. Get paid!

On collection, our removal agent will give your car a once over to ensure that you were honest about the condition of the vehicle. Providing everything is in line, once the car is on the trailer and taken away your money will be transferred straight into your bank account.

What are scrap car prices in Margate?

Every one of our scrap car prices are calculated by the weight of your car in line with the current rate of scrap metal. We also take into account any local averages, and will always check with buyers near to you to ensure you’re always getting the best price.

What's the difference between scrap and salvage?

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.

Can you scrap my specific make and model?

We scrap all well known car makes and models across the country and our sales team has experience in helping get buyers for everything from the newest electric cars to the more aged classic cars. Whether you’re looking to scrap one of the best selling cars in history or a very rare exotic special, we’ll get you the very best price and 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 still find you an unbeatable price.

 

How are cars scrapped?

All cars that are scrapped are recycled in line with environmental legislation. This means that your car will be returned to its original materials, which can then be used again in the manufacturing process – in some cases, an old car actually helps to build a new one!

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.
