Scrap Car Comparison Mascot Scrap car services in Newark

A brief run through the services we can provide for you and your car.

Scrap your car

Embark on the easiest vehicle sale you'll ever see by selling as scrap through our service. You'll get a price in an instant based on the current rate for scrap metal, and we'll link you with a buyer instantly. No hassle, just a quick and simple sale for a great price.

Sell your car as salvage

Some cars are worth more than simply their weight in metal. If you still have some parts of your car that remain useable, these can be removed and sold on as spares elsewhere, boosting your car's value as a result. Selling a car in this way is known as selling as salvage, and often finds higher prices than scrap offers.

Sell a damaged car

Don't let a broken car get you down, sell it in an instant with us and we'll guarantee you a buyer. Don't wait around for people trying to haggle you down on the private market - we'll get the absolute best price you can find and we'll do all the hard work for you.

Sell a van or commercial vehicle

Need to get rid of something a little on the larger side? We can help there too! We'll get you a great price no matter what workhorse you're trying to sell. Buses, coaches, vans, trucks - we've scrapped it all. We can even help you prepare to upgrade your company with our fleet scrapping service.

Scrap Car Comparison Mascot How to scrap a car in Newark

1. Get a quote

Use our quote generator at the top of this page to find your initial quotes. These will be based on your car's kerb weight and the current prices of scrap metal nationwide. You can accept this offer there and then, but our team will get in touch with you to discuss your car in more detail.

2. Describe your car

When our team calls, it's important to provide as much accurate information as you can. These additional details will allow us to recalculate your offer into something fine tuned to your specific situation. If it's possible you could make more by selling as salvage, we'll let you know at this stage. Accuracy is key, as false information will only result in a renegotiated price upon collection.

3. Collection & Payment

Now the part you've been waiting for - and it's just as easy as the rest! We'll put you in touch with one of our collection specialists who will come out to you to collect your vehicle. This service is absolutely free of charge, so you know you'll get every penny you were quoted. After a brief inspection to ensure the car is as described, the collector will take it away and the money will be transferred directly into your bank account.

What are the scrap car prices in Newark?

Every scrap car price that we generate is based on the current rate for scrap metal across the nation, combined with the designated weight of your vehicle. We also take into account any local trends as well as getting more details from you on your specific car so we can tailor your quotes to your situation.

Can you scrap my make and model of car?

Of course we can! We can get a scrap price for literally everything on the road. No car is too rare or difficult. Simply use our service and one of our team will be in touch to talk you through your options. Whether you’ve got a best-selling family saloon or a rare imported sportscar, we’ll get you a great price.

How is salvaging different to scrapping?

Scrap cars are sent straight to the scrap yard for crushing, whereas a salvage vehicle will have any reusable parts removed first. This could be items such as working engines, gearboxes or similar. For this reason, salvage vehicles often fetch higher prices than simple scrap options.

What happens to scrap vehicles?

All scrap vehicles are recycled in line with government and environmental laws. The majority of your vehicle will be returned to its original materials, which can then be used again in the manufacturing process elsewhere – usually in the automotive sector.

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.
