Ford scrap car prices in Birkenhead
Common models (Fiesta, Focus and Mondeo) span roughly 950–1,650 kg, which our formula turns into £170–£285 at £164 per tonne (rate updated 19 October 2026). Your registration gives the exact kerb weight.
On a Ford the catalytic converter (or DPF on a diesel) is part of why a complete car is worth more than its steel, but it is inside our per-tonne rate, not a separate line. Leave it on, and tell us at booking if it is missing.
Our scrap quotes for Ford vehicles are based on kerb weight, catalytic converter or DPF value, and overall condition. We look up your vehicle's weight by registration and give you an instant estimate. The price you see is the price you get — no haggling, no deductions on collection day.

Yes. We are a licensed ATF (Authorised Treatment Facility, permit JP3129MP) and issue a DVLA Certificate of Destruction within 7 days of collecting your Ford. The CoD is your legal proof that the vehicle has been scrapped. We issue it directly — we are the yard, not a middleman.
What if my Ford doesn't start?
That's fine — we collect non-runners. Just let us know when booking so we bring the right equipment. A car that doesn't run may mean a small deduction, but we'll tell you before collection, not after.
Do Ford catalytic converters have value?
On a Ford the catalytic converter (or DPF on a diesel) is part of why a complete car is worth more than its steel, but it is inside our per-tonne rate, not a separate line. Leave it on, and tell us at booking if it is missing.
