Get your scrap car quote

Start with your registration and collection postcode.

No obligation. Start with the registration and postcode, and we’ll confirm the collection details before anything is booked.

Use the postcode where the vehicle is parked

Your home postcode may not be the collection postcode. If the car is at a garage, bodyshop, workplace or storage site, use that address when requesting the quote. Include the entrance or site name when it differs from the postal address.

A nearby town page is a starting point, not a reserved collection slot. Tell us about height barriers, gates, parking restrictions and whether the vehicle can roll or steer so coverage and the practical collection plan can be confirmed together.

Find your area

Choose the town or city closest to you

These are the main areas we cover. Linked towns open a local collection guide. For any area listed, use the quote form with the postcode where your car is parked and we will confirm coverage and access before booking. Smaller villages may be served from a nearby town route.

Hampshire

Hampshire collection areas

Collection notes

A few details make collection much easier

Every collection is a little different. A car on a clear driveway in Waterlooville is not the same as a non-runner in a tight Portsmouth street or a vehicle tucked behind a gate near Chichester. When you request a quote, tell us where the car is parked, whether it starts, whether it rolls and steers, and whether there are any access issues. That helps us send the right setup first time.

Useful things to mention

  • The vehicle’s exact postcode
  • Whether it is on a road, driveway, garage, car park or private land
  • Whether it starts, rolls and steers
  • Flat tyres, locked steering, seized brakes or no keys
  • Height barriers, permits, locked gates or tight access

How it works

Simple local collection from start to finish

Send the vehicle details

Start with the registration, postcode and condition. Photos help if the car is damaged, missing parts or stuck somewhere awkward.

Book collection

We confirm the quote, collection address and access notes, then arrange a sensible collection slot.

Get paid

After the vehicle has been checked, payment is made by bank transfer and we guide you through the DVLA steps.

Vehicles

Cars, vans and awkward collections

We don’t just collect tidy cars sitting neatly on a driveway. A lot of the vehicles we buy are MOT failures, non-runners, damaged cars, old vans and cars that have simply become too much hassle to repair.

Scrap cars

Old, unwanted and end-of-life cars ready to move on.  

MOT failures

Cars where the repair bill no longer makes sense.  

Non-runners

Vehicles that won’t start, won’t drive or need recovery.  

Damaged cars

Accident damaged, write-off and salvage-value vehicles.  

No keys

Often still possible, depending on access and ownership checks.  

Vans

Light commercial vehicles collected from homes and businesses.  

EVs and hybrids

Handled carefully, with the right details checked upfront.  

Prices

FAQs

Location and collection questions

Do you cover my exact postcode?If you are in Hampshire or West Sussex, there is a good chance we can help. Choose the nearest town above or send your postcode in the quote form and we’ll confirm it.
What if my town is not listed?Send the quote anyway. Smaller villages are often covered from a nearby town route, even if they do not have their own page yet.
Is collection free?Collection is included across covered areas. The main thing is giving us honest access details before collection is booked.
Can you collect a car that does not start?Yes. We collect plenty of non-runners, MOT failures and damaged vehicles. Let us know if the car rolls, steers, has keys and has inflated tyres.
Can you collect from a car park, garage or private land?Usually, yes, as long as it is safe and permission is in place. Height barriers, locked gates and tight access are worth mentioning before the day.
How do I get paid?Payment is made by bank transfer on collection after the vehicle and ownership details have been checked.
