What counts as a 'non-runner'?
- Engine won't start (flat battery, seized, blown head gasket, dead ECU)
- Doesn't move (locked gearbox, seized brakes, snapped driveshaft)
- SORN'd off-road for years and no longer roadworthy
- MOT failed and cheaper to scrap than repair
- Fire, flood or accident damaged
- Stripped for parts and just the shell remaining
Access checklist — what we need to know when you book
- Where the car is (driveway, garage, on-street, side alley)
- Whether the wheels turn freely (or if it's on flat tyres / locked)
- Whether we can reach it with a slide-bed / conventional recovery truck
- Any obstructions — low branches, tight gates, parked-in situations
Non-runner scrap price — what actually matters
The scrap price for a non-runner is based on the same factors as a runner: weight, completeness and catalytic-converter content. A complete non-running estate or diesel SUV often pays significantly more than a running small petrol hatchback. Send the reg for a guaranteed written price.
