Why Choose Us to Scrap Your Car?
Instant Online Quote
No waiting around, no phone calls back and forth. Our instant online quote tool gives you a real-time valuation for your scrap or salvage vehicle in seconds.
Our Advanced Pricing Technology checks current market trade prices to make sure your offer is fair and competitive. Simply enter your registration and postcode, see your price instantly, and confirm to schedule a hassle-free collection.
Specialist Salvage Buyers
Not every car is ready for the crusher. If your vehicle is too good to scrap but not worth repairing, we can connect you with specialist salvage buyers who pay top prices for repairable or high-demand vehicles. This means you could get significantly more than standard scrap value. All quotes are confirmed by phone before collection for complete peace of mind.
Trusted, Licensed Recyclers
We only work with Authorised Treatment Facilities (ATFs) — the only businesses legally allowed to scrap cars and issue a Certificate of Destruction (CoD).
Every ATF in our network is licensed by either the Environment Agency, Natural Resources Wales or the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA). All paperwork is handled efficiently on your behalf.
Best Prices Paid
We’re connected to some of the UK’s largest and most reputable scrap and salvage buyers. By checking live market values, we make sure you get the highest possible price for your car — whether it’s scrap, accident-damaged, faulty, or simply unwanted.
Free, Fast Collection
Every quote we give includes FREE nationwide collection. As long as your car has four wheels and tyres and is accessible, our network can collect it from your home, workplace, or another location of your choice. Once you accept a quote, you’ll get a call within 4 business hours to confirm details and arrange collection — usually within 1–2 working days.

What happens after I accept a quotation?

How quickly can my car be collected?
You’ll usually get a call within 4 business hours of accepting your quote. Most collections are arranged within 1–2 working days. Please remove all personal belongings from your vehicle before collection.
How and when will I be paid?

If you don’t have a V5C, you’ll need to write to DVLA with the buyer’s details.
