FAQs

What are the scrap car prices in York?

All the scrap car prices we offer are based on how heavy your car is. The quote will be worked out based on the weight and the current national average price for scrap metal. With our extensive York network, we’ll get you an accurate price in moments.

How is salvaging different from scrapping?

A salvage car will be stripped of its working parts and sold to fix other vehicles. Salvage prices are often higher than scrap offers as a result. Find out how to salvage your car.

What will happen to my scrap car?

All scrap cars must be recycled in line with government legislation. Almost all of your car will be used to create parts for new cars. Find out more about car recycling.

Can you scrap my specific make and model?

Absolutely! We’ve scrapped everything, so we can get a quote for all car makes and models. We can even price up those more obscure vehicles. From supercars to family hatchbacks, we’ll scrap it all!

If you’re unsure, just give our team a call and we’ll put your mind at ease.
