Scrap Car Comparison Mascot FAQs

What are the scrap car prices in Portsmouth?

All of our scrap car prices are governed by the weight of your car. Every price we quote will reflect the national average for scrap metal in the UK. We’ll compare your offers to those around you, meaning you’ll get the best price from around Pompey and the wider Hampshire area.

How is salvaging different from scrapping?

A salvage vehicle will be broken down into its usable parts before being scrapped, whilst a scrap car goes straight to the final point. You will often find a salvage vehicle will be worth more as buyers can often get a larger return by selling the working components. Find out how to salvage your car.

What will happen to my scrap car?

Your car will be recycled in line with government legislation. Every car must go through this process, and the recycled materials will regularly be used in the manufacture of brand new vehicles. Find out more about car recycling.

Can you scrap my specific make and model?


Of course! We scrap pretty much every single car make and model you can think of. We’ve scrapped anything and everything, so never assume you can’t use our service.

From bestsellers to the rarest of imports, we’ve scrapped it all. Get your best price now to see just how much your car could be worth.

Can my damaged, broken, missing MOT car be scrapped?

Any car can be scrapped. Even if yours is damaged beyond recognition, has no current MOT or is an insurance write off, we’ll get you a great price.

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.
