What are scrap car prices in Thanet?

All of our scrap car prices nationwide are calculated using the national going rate for scrap metal. We’ll work out an offer based on the weight of the vehicle you’re selling. These prices align with the national average for scrap metal in the UK. We’ll even check locally to see if your car could be sold as salvage to potentially boost your offers.

What happens to scrap cars?

All scrap cars are recycled in line with government legislation. In most cases, your car will be broken down to its original parts. These parts will then be recycled to be used in the manufacturing process once more. Buyers in our network ensure your car is responsibly disposed of.

My car has been written off, can I still scrap it?

You can. Even if your car’s an insurance write off or has no MOT, we can help get a great price for it. Just give us a call and we’ll let you know what you can do.

Can you scrap my specific make and model?

We can scrap every make and model of car you can think of. Our expert team has helped sell everything from the most common hatchbacks to exotic sportscars. Whether it’s a rare find or a one-off import, we will find the best price for your car. If you have a unique vehicle, our specialist team will still be able to provide you with a quick and competitive quote.

How is salvaging different from scrapping?

When a car is salvaged, it is stripped of any usable parts remaining. These are then used to repair other cars or simply sold as spares. Selling as salvage can potentially get you a better price than scrapping, as buyers see a larger return on investment.

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.
