Scrap Škoda prices
Volkswagen mechanicals under a bigger body: an Octavia estate or a Superb is a large, heavy car and prices like one.
Škoda models the network collects
What the yards are paying today in one typical postcode district. The first figure is a non-runner with parts missing; the second is complete and driving. Your own district will differ, and the quote form knows by how much.
| Model | Typical weight | Scrap price |
|---|---|---|
| Škoda Fabiahatchback · petrol | 1,100 kg | £105 – £205 |
| Škoda Octaviaestate · diesel | 1,400 kg | £140 – £260 |
| Škoda Superbsaloon · diesel | 1,550 kg | £150 – £280 |
| Škoda Yetisuv · diesel | 1,500 kg | £165 – £295 |
What a Škoda fetches on the network
Every yard on the network sets its own rate per tonne for each postcode district it will drive to, and a Škoda is priced against the best of the rates covering yours — so the same model can be worth £30 more in a district three yards compete for than in one served by a single yard. The registration lookup gives the exact engine and kerb weight rather than the typical figures in the table; the condition questions then move the figure up or down; and the yard that set the rate is the yard that collects and pays it. The valuation page goes through what drives the number, and scrap car prices today shows the going rate by type of vehicle.
Common questions
What will a licensed yard pay for my Škoda?
In one typical postcode district today, a running, complete Škoda fetches between £205 and £295 depending on the model. Your own district may pay more or less, because different yards cover it — enter the registration and postcode and the figure you see is the best rate any yard covering yours will pay.
Which yard collects a Škoda?
Whichever licensed yard set the best rate for your postcode district. It rings you within two hours of you accepting (during the working day), collects free on its own truck, and pays by bank transfer within 24 hours of collection. Vans and 4x4s up to 3.5 tonnes go on the standard truck; anything heavier can be arranged by phone.
Is a Škoda worth more broken for parts?
Sometimes. A Škoda with a sound engine, a good gearbox or a strong parts trade behind it is worth more to a yard that dismantles cars than to one that only weighs them in, and both kinds quote on the network. Describe the car honestly and the price reflects it.
Why is the range so wide?
Weight first: 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 — and then the district, because the yards covering it set the rate.
