100% Coverage across Nottingham
The Home of English Sport, Nottingham has seen a wide range of top professional teams within its city boundaries. Not only does it house the former European footballing giants of Nottingham Forest, but also has professional rugby, ice hockey and cricket teams, as well as being an annual stop on the International Tennis calendar. Much like the career of sportspeople, the lifespan of a car can be relatively shortlived – often around 14 years – and if yours is coming to the end of its usable life, then perhaps its time to head for the scrap yard. By using National Scrap Car, you’re guaranteed to find the very best price for your car in the quickest way possible – and we’ll even come and collect it for free!
We offer complete scrap coverage across Nottingham as well as the surrounding areas including Beeston, Bestwood Village, Arnold, Kimberley and Netherfield.
Prices in Nottingham are mostly determined by scrap yards local to the city which follows the average cost for scrap metal in the the north east of England. All vehicles that need to be scrapped have their prices determined by their weight. Small variables include things like alloy wheels being present.
Heavier vehicles like scrap vans or 4x4s will have more metal that can be recycled, and a better price offered. We only work with approved auto junk yards (known as an Authorised Treatment Facility) which will depollute and recycle your car or van ethically and legally.
The prices we offer include free collection from wherever you are in Nottingham, help with the paperwork and high professional standards to ensure a smooth experience from start to finish.
Whether your car or van is on the banks of the River Trent or in Robin Hood’s Sherwood, our approved scrap yards across the UK offer car collection from where you are. At the time of booking we’ll ensure recovery vehicles can access your vehicle.

Scrapping your vehicle FAQs
After you have agreed the price on offer, you can provide us with more details regarding the status of the car and us getting access to it. You don’t need to empty, clean, or modify your car in any way but please remove anything you don’t want destroyed at the time of scrapping.
Once we have all the necessary details we will pass this on to the scrap yard that has offered you the best price. They will be in touch via phone to arrange a convenient time to pick up the vehicle. On the day they’ll phone as they approach and request things like the V5C (which you aren’t required to have) or keys (again, not necessarily required so long as the vehicle can still be removed). You, as the owner, don’t have to be present on the day but you’ll need a signed note from the owner and photo ID.
We make payment on the same day the car is collected. Once the scrap yard has notified us of car being present and correct, we’ll release payment via BACS to the account you have provided. You should see the cash available to you that day.
