Scrap Cars & Car Breakers in Cumbria
Looking to sell a scrap, damaged or non-running car in Carlisle? Allstar Breakers buys unwanted vehicles throughout Carlisle and the surrounding area, with collection arranged from your home, workplace or wherever the vehicle is stored.
We’re based in Preston, but our vehicle collection service covers locations across Cumbria. We buy cars in a wide range of conditions, including those that are no longer roadworthy or worth repairing.
We don’t value every vehicle on scrap metal weight alone. If your car still contains reusable parts, such as an engine, gearbox or electrical components, these can influence what it’s worth.
Send us your registration, postcode and a few details about the vehicle for a straightforward, no-obligation quote. If you’re happy to go ahead, we’ll discuss collection arrangements and payment by bank transfer.
Call us on 01772 700607, email shaun@allstarbreakers.co.uk or use the enquiry form on this page to get a free, no-obligation quote.

What Vehicles Do We Buy in Carlisle?
We consider cars and vans in a wide range of conditions, including:

Car Breaking and Recycling in Carlisle
When a vehicle reaches the end of its useful life, it doesn’t necessarily mean every part is ready to be thrown away.
At Allstar Breakers, we recover suitable components from vehicles dismantled at our Preston yard. Engines, gearboxes, lights, body panels and electrical parts can often be reused, helping other motorists keep their vehicles on the road without buying brand-new replacements.
Vehicles being scrapped are processed at our Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF), where hazardous materials are removed and recyclable materials are recovered in accordance with environmental regulations.
When a vehicle is scrapped, we issue a Certificate of Destruction where required and help with the relevant DVLA notification, so you have the appropriate documentation confirming its disposal.
You can find out more about the process in our guide to end-of-life vehicle recycling.
