Here’s what we can do for you and your scrap car in and around Rushden.

Scrap your car

Our core service and the easiest sale you'll ever see. Get a quote in seconds and we'll find you a buyer before you can even consider writing a private advert. Quick, easy and hassle-free, your car could be sold in as little as 3 days!

Sell your car for salvage

Sometimes a car might be simply "too good" to end up straight on the scrap pile. If this is the case with yours, then we can get you a potentially better price by selling as salvage. This will see your car broken down and sold for parts.

Sell a damaged car

Selling broken vehicles is never easy, and we all know how certain customers will try to haggle their way down as far as possible. With our service you'll be given a price and it'll be locked in. No haggles and no fuss - simple!

Scrap Car Comparison Mascot How to scrap your car in Rushden

1. Get a quote

Use our online quote generator to find your scrap offers. These will be calculated based on the weight of your car and current rates for scrap metal. We'll then get in touch to discuss your car in further detail and see if we can extract any more value as salvage.

2. Describe your car

When we get in touch it's important to give us the most detailed and (more importantly) accurate description of your car possible. This allows us to recalculate your offer to be in line with your car's current condition, and whether or not it could qualify as a salvage offer.

3. Collection and payment

Once you've locked in a price we'll connect you with one of our collection agents who will come to remove your car at a convenient time for you. This service is absolutely free and your money will be transferred as soon as the vehicle is removed.

What are the scrap car prices in Rushden?

Every single one of the scrap car prices we calculate are done so in line with national averages and the weight of your car. Taking the weight of your car, we’ll compare it to the current price of scrap metal to generate your offers. We’ll also check the local area to ensure you’re only getting the best quotes possible.

How is salvage different to scrap?

Scrap cars will go straight to the scrap yard to be recycled. Car salvaging, however, is the process of reclaiming the vehicle so it isn’t immediately dismantled and recycled, but either stripped for parts or even fixed itself. 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 of car?

We’ve scrapped every single car make you can think of. Whether you’ve got an exciting supercar or a boring everyday family SUV, we can get you a great price. Whatever powertrain you have, be it electric cars or internal combustion, we can scrap it all. Just pick up the phone and get in touch to see what we can do for you.

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.
