Barton Seagrave is a residential village joined onto Kettering, with estates of family homes and plenty of people who commute along the A14 and A6. That means a lot of cars, and sooner or later some of them come to the end of the road.

Typical scrap cars from Barton Seagrave homes
On commuter estates, the end of a car's life usually looks like one of these:
- A second car left on the drive after the household changed to one vehicle.
- A high mileage commuter car that has done thousands of A14 miles and failed its MOT.
- A car belonging to an older relative who has stopped driving.
- A car with accident damage that the insurer has written off.
- A teenager's first car that has finally given up.
We buy any age, make or model, including cars with no MOT, no tax and a SORN in place. Vans up to 3.5 tonnes, 4x4s and pickups are covered too.

Collecting from drives and estate roads
Estate driveways can be tight, with cars parked close on either side. Our collections are carried out with trucks from our sister company, Rapid Recovery Corby, so we can choose between a spec lift tow truck, a beavertail transporter, or a van with dollies and skates for cars boxed in on a drive or in a garage. Let us know if there are parked cars, a low garage or a narrow turning when we call.
How much is my scrap car worth in Barton Seagrave?
There is no fixed figure. Scrap is priced per tonne, so the car's weight and the current scrap metal price come first. After that we look at make and model, whether it is complete with its engine, gearbox, catalytic converter and wheels, whether you have the keys and V5C, and where it is. Your online price takes all of this into account.
The price stands as long as the car is as you described it. If something is different on the day, we explain before loading and you can say no. Read how scrap car prices work for the detail.
Cash for cars? Not legally
You may see cash for cars adverts. The Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 made it illegal to pay cash for scrap metal, including scrap cars. We pay by bank transfer, which gives you a clear record and keeps everything above board.
Keeping a private plate
If the car carries a personalised number plate, sort it out with the DVLA before collection. You must transfer or retain it before the car is scrapped, because once the car has gone to the treatment facility the plate is lost.
