Another Record Month for Essex Car Scrapping Prices

June was yet another record month for scrap car prices in London.  While we saw extraordinary car scrapping prices in Herts in May, June has exceeded our expectations.  In fact, the past 12 months has seen a rise on a monthly basis andevery single month over the past year has delivered scrap car prices on average above £200.  That’s a car scrapping price record and one we hope will continue.  So, if you’re looking to scrap a car near me in St Alban’s, this is the best time to do it.   Before we move onto the price you could get for scrapping a car in Harlow, let’s remind you what you get with our car scrapping service in Hertfordshire.

A £259 Payment On Average for Scrap Cars

Back to the car scrap prices for June. The average price given for scrapping a car in Barnet was £259 – that’s an enormous rise on last year, up to 74%. Scrapping a car this July will give you more than £100 on last year’s year on year prices.  We’re sure this trend will continue especially as the restrictions are lifting in England but don’t risk the prices dropping, it’s summer so there could be a plateau.  So, if you are thinking of scrapping my car in Bishop’s Stortford, this is the best possible time to take advantage of the scrap car prices.  Do remember that lots of things affect the price you could get for your car.  There’s the demand for metal across the world, the age of your car, it’s weight, it’s condition and where you go to for the best car scrapping prices near me.

What You Could Get for your Scrap Car in London

The top car scrapped with us to get the best price over the last month was the Ford Focus and this has continually been the most popular car for scrapping over the past year.  If you want to scrap a Ford Focus, you’ll get 6% more than you did a couple of months back in May.  Compared with last June, you should get at least 75 to 80% more, last year the average price paid for a Ford Focus was £135.  Other enormously popular cars in June included both Vauxhalls, Corsa and Astra (in second and third place), and the Ford Fiesta.  You’ll also get good prices for your old Peugeot 206 and your broken Renault Clio. Expect approximately £250 for a Vauxhall, £210 for a Ford Fiesta and £122 for a Peugeot 206.  The Ford Focus could get you a nice £240, straight into your bank account on the very same day.
