Why choose ScrapTrak in Andover?

How it works
- Get your quote: Enter a few details below for a tailored price. No obligation.
- Book free collection: Pick a convenient slot. We’ll confirm your booking and what to have ready.
- We collect & pay: Hand over the vehicle and keys (if available). We pay instantly and handle paperwork.

Tip: You don’t need a current MOT or tax to scrap your car. We can safely load non-runners.
What affects scrap car prices in Andover?
Scrap prices move with the metal markets, but your vehicle’s specific details also matter. We look at:
- Weight & model: Heavier cars often fetch more due to metal recovery.
- Age & condition: Runners or vehicles with reusable parts can be worth more than end-of-life shells.
- Category & damage: Accident damage and insurance categories can affect reuse value.
- Market demand: Popular engines, gearboxes, ECUs, and body panels may increase your offer.
- Completeness: Missing catalysts, alloys, or batteries can reduce value; intact vehicles usually pay better.
We’ll give you a clear, fair valuation and stick to the price we’ve agreed, provided the vehicle matches the details you’ve supplied.

What you’ll need on the day
- Proof of ID: Driving licence or passport.

- Any service history or spares: Can boost salvage value for certain models.
We’ll help you complete the DVLA process (Section 9 / online notification) and provide a collection receipt. If the vehicle is scrapped, the ATF will arrange a Certificate of Destruction where applicable.

Scrap My Car Andover – FAQs
How quickly can you collect in Andover?
Often the same day or next working day. If you have specific access hours (workplace car park, gated entry, etc.) tell us when booking and we’ll align the slot.
Will you buy a non-runner or no-MOT car?
Yes. We regularly collect non-runners and SORN vehicles. No MOT or tax is fine — we’ll load safely and legally.
What paperwork do I need for DVLA?
We’ll help you complete the DVLA sale/scrap notification online. If the vehicle is scrapped at an ATF, a Certificate of Destruction may be issued by the ATF. Keep our receipt for your records.
Do you pay instantly?
Yes — we pay by Faster Payments at collection, once the vehicle and details are confirmed. You’ll also receive a collection receipt.
Can I sell without a logbook (V5C)?
In most cases, yes. We’ll need proof of identity and a simple ownership check. If you still have the V5C, it makes admin even smoother.
Do prices ever change on the day?
Your offer is based on the information you supply. As long as the vehicle matches the described condition, we’ll honour the price. If significant undisclosed differences exist (e.g. missing catalyst or major parts), we’ll discuss options transparently before proceeding.
