Get a Scrap Car Quote
Use this form to request a scrap car quote. Tell us about your car — its registration, make, model and year — and leave your name and phone number so the quote can be given to you. The form asks for exactly what a quote is worked out from, so a complete request is quicker to deal with than a partial one.

A quote is worked out from the car itself, so the form asks for the details that describe it: the vehicle registration, the make, the model and the year. Those four details are the starting point for any quote, and they are the first fields in the form below.
The form also asks for your name and your phone number, so the quote can be given to you, and it has an optional message box for anything else about the car that might matter — its condition, for example, or whether any paperwork is missing.
How to fill in the form
Fill in each field as accurately as you can. The registration is the number on the car's plates, the make is the manufacturer, the model is the name on the car, and the year is the year the car was made. If you are not sure of the year, the registration can be used to check it.
Use the message box for anything the fields do not cover. If the car has no V5C, no keys, or a fault that affects its value, say so there — it helps the quote reflect the car as it actually is.
What happens after you send it
After you send the form you will see a thank-you message on the next page. The details you gave — registration, make, model, year and your contact details — are what a quote is based on, so a complete form gives a clearer starting point than one with gaps.
This page does not promise a time, a price or a collection. It asks for the details a quote needs, and nothing more.
What paperwork to have ready
Have the V5C log book ready. It is the document that names the registered keeper, and it carries the 11-digit reference number used for the DVLA notification. When the car is scrapped you give the log book to the authorised treatment facility and keep the yellow section yourself.
If there is no V5C, say so in the message box. The car can still be scrapped, but the DVLA notification is done by letter instead, and the paperwork page on this site explains how.
Not sure? Read how scrapping works first
If you have not scrapped a car before, the step-by-step page on this site walks through the whole process — quote, handover, paperwork and what happens to the car afterwards. The paperwork page covers the V5C, the DVLA notification and the Certificate of Destruction in plain language.
Read those first, then come back to this form when you are ready. A quote request made with the process understood is a better request than one made in the dark.
Frequently asked questions
What details do I need to get a quote?
You need your car's registration, make, model and year, plus your name and your phone number so the quote can be given to you. There is also an optional message box for anything else about the car, such as its condition or whether any paperwork is missing.
What happens after I send the form?
You will see a thank-you message on the next page. The details you gave — registration, make, model, year and your contact details — are what a quote is based on. A complete form gives a clearer starting point than one with gaps, so fill in each field as accurately as you can.
What paperwork do I need?
The main document is the V5C log book, which names the registered keeper. When the car is scrapped you give the log book to the authorised treatment facility and keep the yellow section yourself. If there is no V5C, say so in the message box — the car can still be scrapped.
What if my car has no V5C or no keys?
Say so in the message box when you request a quote. A car with no V5C can still be scrapped, but the DVLA notification is done by letter instead of through the GOV.UK service. Mentioning it up front means the quote reflects the car as it actually is.
Do I have to accept the quote?
No. Requesting a quote does not commit you to scrapping your car with us. The form asks for the details a quote is worked out from, and you remain free to decide once you have seen the quote. There is no obligation in asking.
