What happens to my car once it's sold for scrap?

All scrap cars in Carshalton are recycled at authorised scrap yards by professional scrap metal dealers. If your car is salvaged, its parts are reused in new vehicles, supporting a sustainable automotive industry.

Scrap vs salvage

When a car is designated as salvage, it is stripped for all usable parts and those bits are sold on individually to help repair other vehicles. There’s extra money to be made, so selling as salvage can yield a better price than scrapping.

What are scrap cars worth in Carshalton?

Scrap Car Comparison bases scrap car prices in Carshalton on the current cost of scrap metal. We consider local averages to ensure you get the best deal. When scrapping a car, you’re essentially selling scrap metal, so the price depends primarily on the vehicle’s weight. If your car is salvage, you should get an even better deal. The same goes for scrapping your van.

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.
