A scrap car buyer for Great Easton
Great Easton is over the county line in Leicestershire, but it is well within reach of our Corby base. The village faces Rockingham and Cottingham across the Welland valley, with Caldecott and Eyebrook Reservoir close by. If you have been meaning to scrap your car in Great Easton, you can get a firm figure in about a minute.
Put the registration and postcode into our instant price checker, and the price appears on screen. Accept it, add your details, and we call to agree a collection time that suits you. Collection is free.
What brings people to us from the village?
Every village has its own pattern, and in Great Easton we hear a few stories again and again:
- A car that has been sat in a garage or barn for years, kept for a project that never started.
- An older relative's car that is no longer being driven.
- A car that went through floodwater on one of the low valley roads after heavy rain.
- A second car that failed its MOT and has not moved since.
- A pickup or 4x4 used around a farm or smallholding that has finally worn out.
Whatever the reason, we buy the car as it is.
Valley lanes and low roads
The lanes around Great Easton are narrow, and the low roads in the valley can flood after heavy rain. We take that into account before we set off. Our collections use trucks from Rapid Recovery Corby, George Mitchell's recovery company, so we have spec lift tow trucks, beavertail transporters and a van with dollies and skates for low garages and seized wheels.
When we call to book, tell us where the car is parked and what the access is like. A gravel drive, a tight yard or a garage with a low door are all fine if we know about them.

How much will I get for my car?
| What we look at | Why |
|---|---|
| Weight | Scrap is priced per tonne |
| Scrap metal price | It moves with the market |
| Make and model | Some cars are worth more than weight alone |
| Completeness | Engine, gearbox, catalytic converter and wheels |
| Keys and V5C | Makes the sale simpler |
| Postcode | Location is part of the price |
Our scrap car cost guide explains these factors. The price stands as long as the car matches your description. If something is different on the day, we explain before we load, and you can say no.
Cars that need moving for other reasons
Not every car we collect is a wreck. Some are simply surplus, such as a car left behind after a house sale, or one that is no longer insured and sitting unused. If it is costing you space or money and you do not want to sell it privately, scrapping is a straightforward option.
Why we never pay cash
The Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013 made it illegal to pay cash for scrap metal, including scrap cars. That applies in Leicestershire just as in Northamptonshire. We pay instantly by bank transfer when we collect, and by law we check the seller's name and address. Have photo ID, proof of address and the V5C ready.
The paperwork, simply put
Your car goes to a licensed Authorised Treatment Facility, which issues a Certificate of Destruction and informs the DVLA. Full months of tax are refunded automatically. Cancel your insurance yourself, and if you want to keep a private plate, sort that with the DVLA before we collect. Our guide to scrapping a car goes through each step.
Neighbouring areas we cover: Caldecott, Rockingham, Cottingham and Middleton.
