Why use ScrapTrak in Chichester?
Direct buyer
No comparison-site mark-ups. Straight offers, faster decisions.
Local know-how
City centre bays, CPZs, retail parks, and Westhampnett access — we plan it so collection’s smooth.
Paid on pickup
We pay by Faster Payments on collection and issue a receipt for your records.
How it works
- Get a quote: Reg + postcode gets us started — add photos if you can.
- Pick a time: We confirm access notes (permits, height bars, narrow lanes).
- We collect & pay: We load safely and pay there and then.
- DVLA step: We help you do the online notification; the ATF issues a CoD if scrapped.
No MOT/tax? Non-runner? No keys? All fine — we bring the right kit.
What sets the price?
- Weight & model — heavier vehicles usually pay more for metal.
- Completeness — catalyst, battery, wheels and panels help your offer.
- Condition & demand — runners and wanted parts can beat scrap-only value.
- Access — tight spots/low car parks affect time on site and routing.

Mini case study — city centre permit street + height bar
Vehicle: 2012 Fiesta, failed MOT, non-runner. Where: permit bay off Northgate, short window before restrictions.
Challenge: multi-storey nearby had a 2.0m height bar; terrace bays nearly full.
Plan: timed arrival within permit window, spec-lift truck, spotter on foot to hold a space safely.
Outcome: loaded in ~10 minutes, payment sent kerbside, DVLA notified online, receipt issued.
Why it stayed smooth
- Accurate notes/photos before arrival.
- Right truck for tight access and height bars.
- Arrival coordinated to the permit window.
