Scrap BMW prices

Heavy, well built and expensive to fix once the big bills start — which is why plenty of 3 and 5 Series end up with us. They pay well by weight.

How we price a BMW

The registration lookup gives us the exact model, engine and kerb weight of your car — not the typical figure in the table. That weight is priced against today’s scrap metal rate, then adjusted for whether the car starts, whether the wheels turn, whether anything is missing and whether the catalytic converter is present. The result is the price the driver pays on the day. More on how valuations work.

Common questions

How much is a BMW worth for scrap?

It depends on the model and its weight. Today, a typical BMW in running, complete condition is worth between £210 and £325 to us, collected near Mexborough. Enter your registration for the exact price for your car.

Do you collect BMW vans and 4x4s too?

Yes — anything up to 3.5 tonnes on our standard truck, and heavier vehicles by arrangement. Larger vehicles are worth more because they weigh more.

Why is the range so wide?

Weight, mostly. The lightest model in a range can weigh half what the largest does. Then condition: a car that starts and drives, with its catalytic converter and wheels, is worth more than one that does not.
