Which yard collects in Dundee?
Dundee collections run from our Inverness yard down the A9 and A90 — about 130 miles — batched with Perth on the same corridor. From quote to collection is typically two to four days, covering Broughty Ferry, Monifieth, Lochee and the city centre, plus Arbroath and Forfar across Angus.
The same yard's trucks also cover Perth & Kinross and Aberdeen — if your car sits in one of those areas instead, use that page for local details.
Scrap car prices in Dundee
Dundee's Low Emission Zone has been enforced since May 2024, so older non-compliant cars are being retired across the city — that's steady work for us. Guide price is around £80 per tonne, with better offers where parts can be resold.
Had a genuine quote from another scrappage company? We're happy to price-match where it's reasonable. Call 0800 680 9005 or complete the form for your best price first time.
Cars, vans & used parts in Dundee
Alongside scrap collection we break and dismantle vehicles to DVLA and SEPA best practice at our own yards, and we buy and sell used car parts — so if your Dundee car has resellable parts, that value goes into your quote rather than being lost at the weighbridge.

I decided to scrap my car in Inverness. The car was collected within the hour. This is the best scrap car collection service in Inverness. The owner was very pleasant and easy to deal with.

I'd never scrapped a car before, so was rather unsure as to how it all worked. Called and spoke to Aaron, who gave me a good price over the phone and we agreed I'd drop off my Peugeot 207 the next day. Great service.

Crashed my car into a hedge out Invergordon. Phoned Caledonian — they were fast, reliable and easy to work with. Winched my car right out of the hedge and off they went. Great service and great people.

Good service, offered a better price than other salvages and communicated well throughout the whole experience. Came a little later than first planned but kept us informed, so no bother for us.

Fantastic service, really friendly guys. Picked up my car the same day I made an enquiry. Would highly recommend their service if you're looking to scrap your car.

I can't thank Edward at Caledonian enough — he took my stress away and made things a lot easier than I feared after my car was in a serious accident. He kept in great contact and I received a good deal considering the mess.

Pleasure to do business with. Came when he said he would, gave me a better price than I was offered elsewhere and dealt with all the paperwork. Highly recommend for disposing of any unwanted vehicle quick and easy.

Frequently asked questions
Will you buy my car if it fails Dundee's LEZ rules?
Yes — LEZ-non-compliant cars are a large part of what we collect in Dundee since enforcement began in May 2024. Complete cars often beat scrap-weight money because of resellable parts.
How quickly can you collect in Dundee?
Normally two to four days. Dundee sits on our A9/A90 route with Perth, so pickups across the city and Angus are batched into the same regular runs.
How much is my scrap car worth in Dundee?
As a guide we pay around £80 per tonne for scrap cars, vans and commercials, though the exact figure depends on the make, model, weight and which parts can be salvaged. Enter your registration for a free, no-obligation quote.
How will I be paid for my scrap car in Dundee?
You're paid securely by bank transfer on collection — scrap vehicles can no longer be paid for in cash under Scottish law — with a clear legal paper trail and a Certificate of Destruction.
Do you buy non-running cars in Dundee?
Yes. Non-runners, MOT failures, accident-damaged and end-of-life vehicles are all welcome, and we notify the DVLA so you're no longer liable for the vehicle.
