Van Breakers & Used Van Parts
Scrap Vans and Van Breakers in Preston
Got a damaged, unwanted or non-running van to sell? Allstar Breakers buys vans for breaking and supplies quality used van parts from our breakers yard in Grimsargh, Preston.
We deal with everything from small car-derived vans to larger commercial vehicles. If your van has failed its MOT, suffered accident damage, developed an expensive mechanical fault or simply reached the end of its working life, send us the details and we’ll assess what it could be worth.
Call 01772 700607 or send us your registration, postcode and a few details about the vehicle for a no-obligation quote.
Why Do Vans Get Sold for Breaking?
Commercial vehicles often cover high mileages and work hard throughout their lives. Eventually, the cost of keeping an older van on the road can outweigh what the vehicle is worth.
We regularly assess vans with:
- MOT failures
- Engine or gearbox problems
- Accident damage
- Electrical or mechanical faults
- High mileage and age-related wear
- Insurance write-offs
- Fleet vehicles that are being replaced
- End-of-life vehicles
A van does not have to be running or roadworthy for us to consider buying it.
Used Van Parts
A van may no longer be economical to repair as a complete vehicle while still containing plenty of usable components.
Depending on the vehicles currently being dismantled, we may have:
- Used van engines
- Gearboxes and transmission components
- Doors and body panels
- Bonnets and bumpers
- Headlights and rear lights
- Wing mirrors
- Suspension components
- Interior trim and seating
- Electrical components
- Alloy and steel wheels
If you are looking for a particular van part, send us your registration and details of the component you need. Part numbers or photographs can also help us identify the correct replacement.
You can browse our used car parts, used engines and used gearboxes pages for more information.
Warranty cover is available on qualifying used parts. Full details can be found on our warranty page.
Van Models We Regularly Break
Our stock changes as more commercial vehicles arrive at the yard, but we regularly deal with popular vans including:
- Ford Transit, Transit Custom and Transit Connect
- Volkswagen Transporter and Caddy
- Peugeot Partner, Expert and Boxer
- Citroen Berlingo, Dispatch and Relay
- Renault Kangoo, Trafic and Master
- Vauxhall Combo, Vivaro and Movano
- Nissan NV200 and Primastar
This is not an exhaustive list. If your van is not shown, get in touch anyway as we may still have suitable parts available or be interested in buying the vehicle.
Van Collection Across Preston and the North West
If your van cannot be driven safely or is no longer worth repairing, we can arrange collection from locations across Preston and the wider North West.
Send us your registration, postcode and details of the vehicle when asking for a quote. If you decide to go ahead, we’ll arrange a convenient collection time and explain the paperwork you need to have ready.
Payment is made securely by bank transfer when the vehicle is collected.
How Much Is a Scrap or Damaged Van Worth?
There is no single price for a scrap or damaged van. Its value can depend on the make, model, age, condition and whether it still contains components that can be reused.
Engines, gearboxes, body panels, lights, interior components and other sought-after parts can all affect the value of a vehicle being bought for breaking.
This means we assess vans individually rather than automatically valuing every vehicle purely by its scrap metal weight.
Van Breaking and Recycling
Where suitable, usable components are removed from vans and supplied as replacement parts, helping other commercial vehicles stay on the road and reducing unnecessary waste.
If a van has reached the end of its usable life, our Authorised Treatment Facility can depollute and process it in accordance with end-of-life vehicle requirements. Where required, we can also issue a DVLA Certificate of Destruction.
You can find out more in our guide to end-of-life vehicles and Authorised Treatment Facilities.
