We Buy Scrap Cars Corby is owned by George Mitchell and based in Corby. Middleton is a small village joined to Cottingham along the A427, on the edge of the Welland valley, so it is close to home for us.
Living with a car you no longer need
In a small village like Middleton, most households rely on a car, and many have two. When one of them stops earning its keep, it tends to sit. We often hear from people in situations like these:
- The second car has not moved since it failed its MOT.
- An older car has been replaced and nobody wants to buy it.
- A car belonging to a relative needs clearing after they stopped driving or passed away.
- A van from a small trade is no longer needed.
- A car was damaged and the insurer paid out, but the owner kept it.
Whatever the story, the steps are the same, and we keep them simple.

Is Middleton too small for a collection?
Not at all. We collect from driveways, roadsides, garages and farms, however small the village. Our collections are done with our own recovery trucks through our sister company, Rapid Recovery Corby, so we can choose a truck to suit the road. On the A427 we load quickly and keep the road clear. On a narrow drive or in a garage, our van with dollies and skates can bring the car out first.
What sets the price of a scrap car?
Most of a scrap car's value comes from its weight, because scrap metal is priced per tonne. The other factors are:
| Factor | Effect |
|---|---|
| Current scrap metal price | Rises and falls with the market |
| Make and model | Some cars are worth more than their weight |
| Complete car | Engine, gearbox, catalytic converter and wheels all count |
| Keys and V5C | Help the price |
| Where it is | Collection location plays a part |
The online price is based on your reg and postcode, and it stands as long as the car is complete and as described. If something is different on the day, we explain before loading and you can decide not to go ahead. The costs section and our how scrap car prices work guide explain more.
Legal, licensed and paid properly
We pay instantly by bank transfer when we collect. Cash payments for scrap cars are illegal under the Scrap Metal Dealers Act 2013, so any cash offer is a warning sign.
We hold a waste carrier licence and a scrap metal collector's licence, and each car goes to a licensed Authorised Treatment Facility. It issues a Certificate of Destruction and notifies the DVLA, and any full months of road tax left are refunded to you automatically.
Ready for collection
Have photo ID and proof of address to hand, plus the V5C if you have it. Clear the car of personal belongings, and transfer any private plate with the DVLA before we arrive. Our how to scrap a car guide lists every step.

We also cover Cottingham, East Carlton, Wilbarston and Corby.
