Scrap van collection in Hampshire — what to expect (and what you'll get paid)
Scrapping a van in Hampshire? Here's the typical payout, what affects price, paperwork for company vans, and how same-day collection works across SO and PO.
Vans typically pay better than cars. Heavier shells, larger catalytic converters, and a steady part-out market all push commercial vehicle scrap prices above the equivalent car.
How van payouts compare by size
- Small van (Berlingo, Partner, Combo, Kangoo) — entry level for vans.
- Mid van (Trafic, Vivaro, Custom, Expert) — stronger thanks to weight and cat content.
- Large van (Transit, Sprinter, Master, Crafter) — typically the strongest van payouts.
- Luton / tipper / chassis-cab — usually the highest of all, driven by chassis weight.
Company vans — what's different
We need a letter of authority from the registered keeper (or the fleet manager on company letterhead). VAT receipt issued so your accountant can process the disposal correctly. Plates can be retained if you've applied via DVLA in advance.
Collection logistics
Most vans are too big for a standard car transporter — we send a heavy-duty recovery truck. That means clear access for the truck near the van (we'll confirm dimensions). Same-day collection is normal across Hampshire for bookings before 2pm.
