Are 4x4 vehicles worth more for scrapping?
Yes, 4x4s typically weigh more than standard cars, meaning they often have a higher scrap value due to metal weight.
We scrap all kinds of 4x4s and SUVs in Blackburn, including damaged, high-mileage, and off-road vehicles.
Whether your 4x4 has been used for farm work, off-roading, or just family life, it eventually comes to the end of its usefulness. From Land Rovers to large SUVs, we collect and scrap all types of four-wheel-drive vehicles. If it’s failed its MOT, become unreliable, or you simply don’t need it anymore, we’ll take care of the removal and payment.
Our team in Blackburn handles everything — free pickup, legal disposal, and payment on collection. All 4x4s are dismantled at authorised treatment facilities to meet strict environmental standards. Let us take your old 4x4 off your hands the right way.
