Vauxhall scrap car prices

Common models (Corsa, Astra and Insignia) span roughly 950–1,600 kg, which our formula turns into £170–£275 at £164 per tonne (rate updated 26 October 2026). Your registration gives the exact kerb weight.

On a Vauxhall 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.

Scrap Vauxhall — FAQs

How much is my scrap Vauxhall worth?

Common models (Corsa, Astra and Insignia) span roughly 950–1,600 kg, which our formula turns into £170–£275 at £164 per tonne (rate updated 26 October 2026). Your registration gives the exact kerb weight. Enter your registration above for a quote based on your vehicle's kerb weight.

Do you scrap all Vauxhall models?

Yes, we scrap every Vauxhall model — from small hatchbacks to large SUVs and vans. Common models we see: Astra, Corsa, Insignia, Mokka, Zafira. Whether it's a runner, a non-starter, an MOT failure, or a write-off, we'll collect it for free and pay you on the spot.

Will you collect my Vauxhall for free?

Yes. We collect for free across Liverpool, Merseyside, Wirral, Chester, and surrounding areas. We agree a collection time with you when you book.

Can I scrap a Vauxhall without an MOT?

Yes. An MOT failure is one of the most common reasons to scrap a car. The MOT status doesn't affect the scrap value — the price is based on weight and condition, not roadworthiness. We collect MOT failures, non-runners, and insurance write-offs.

Do Vauxhall catalytic converters have value?

On a Vauxhall 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.

What about Vauxhall hybrid or electric vehicles?

Hybrid and electric Vauxhall vehicles require manual quoting due to battery handling requirements. The high-voltage battery needs specialist removal and recycling. Call us at 07722 935042 for a price — we'll quote you in 60 seconds.

How long does it take to get a Certificate of Destruction for my Vauxhall?

We issue the DVLA Certificate of Destruction within 7 days of collecting your Vauxhall. The CoD is your legal proof that the vehicle has been scrapped at a licensed ATF. We are the ATF — not a middleman — so we issue it directly.

Can I sell Vauxhall parts separately before scrapping?

You can, but it's usually not worth it unless you're a mechanic. Our scrap quotes already account for valuable components like the catalytic converter, alloys, and battery. Removing parts reduces your quote proportionally. See our guide on the most valuable car parts to sell before scrapping for details.
