What it costs to scrap your caravan
Scrapping a caravan is a service you pay for, and there is no free collection. The one exception is a used caravan in working order that meets the conditions in the last column — those we will buy. These are the real figures, so you know where you stand before you get in touch.
Touring caravan — towable
Wheels on, and sound enough to survive the tow
- Collected whole and towed away
- Needs its wheels and a chassis that will hold together
- Figure confirmed from your photos, not on the day
Touring caravan — not towable
Rotten, holed, no wheels, or unsafe for the road
- Broken up where it stands, or lifted onto a tow bed
- Either way it is the same job — it is being scrapped
- Damp, rot and structural damage are all fine
- Skip not included — you hire your own, 6–8 yards
Static caravan
Dismantled on site and the waste taken away
- Full on-site dismantling, clearance and disposal
- Size, access and condition set the final figure
- We never buy static caravans, whatever the condition
We buy used caravans
The one case where the money comes to you
- Caravans from 1992 onwards only
- It must be in working order
- Minor damp is acceptable
- Minor leaks are acceptable
- £100 – £600 for damp, leaks or minor damage
- Up to £4,000 for high-end caravans, never more
Every figure is confirmed from your photos before anything is booked, so nothing changes on the day. Send clear pictures including the damage — a caravan described as towable that turns out not to be is the single most common reason a quote has to be redone. We are always heavily booked: book within 24 hours of your quote or you may be waiting several weeks for a collection date.

How scrapping a caravan works in Wisbech
Arranging caravan removal in Wisbech is simpler than most people expect. Scrap My Caravan collects across Wisbech, the Fenland district, and all of Cambridgeshire — including PE13 and PE14 postcodes. Touring caravan removal costs £350–£600; static caravans from £1,800. You book it, the team collects it — no lorry hire, no stripping required on your end.
The Fens are flat, but not every site is easy to access. Here's what you need to know.
How Much Does Caravan Removal Cost Near Wisbech?
Caravan scrapping is a disposal service — you pay for collection and removal, not the other way around. These prices apply to Wisbech and the wider Fenland area.
Touring Caravan Removal
Touring caravans cost between £350 and £600 to remove near Wisbech. The final price depends on the size of the van, how accessible the location is, and whether any on-site dismantling is needed before the van can leave. If your tourer is in working order and was built in 2000 or later, mention it when requesting your quote; sound tourers are quicker to collect.
Static Caravan Removal
Static caravans cost from £1,800 to remove, rising to around £2,100 for larger units. The kind found on holiday parks around the Wash or storage sites outside Wisbech tend to sit toward the upper end. Weight and dimensions drive the cost more than anything else.
Do You Cover Wisbech, March, Chatteris and the Wider Fenland?
Yes — Scrap My Caravan covers the whole Fenland district. That includes Wisbech town and the surrounding villages, as well as March, Chatteris, Whittlesey, and the rural agricultural stretches that make up so much of this part of Cambridgeshire.
The PE13 and PE14 postcode zones are fully covered. If your caravan is sitting at a storage yard, a static park near the Wash coast, or a plot off one of the drainage fen roads, collection is available. The flat terrain actually makes large vehicle access easier than in many other parts of the country — though narrow drove roads and gated agricultural tracks can occasionally need some planning. Mention any access quirks when requesting your quote.
For coverage across the rest of the county, see the Cambridgeshire service page.
Caravan Collection from the Fens – What to Expect
Once you've confirmed a quote and a date, the team arrives at the agreed time. Touring caravans are usually hitched and gone within a couple of hours. Statics take longer — typically a half-day or full-day job, depending on size and how much dismantling is needed on-site.
You don't need to strip the caravan before collection. Remove personal belongings and any gas cylinders (they can't travel with the van), but furniture, fixtures, and fittings can stay. The team sorts everything else.
Can You Remove a Damaged or Damp Caravan Near Wisbech?
Yes — and this comes up a lot in the Fens. Damaged, damp, fire-affected, and structurally compromised caravans are all collected. Condition is priced into the quote; it's not a reason to refuse the job.
And this is worth flagging: the Fenland climate isn't kind to caravans stored outdoors. Damp conditions across the Fens mean water ingress is among the most common issues with caravans in the Wisbech area. If yours has been sitting on a plot for several years and developed a damp problem, that's entirely expected — and entirely collectible. Just mention the condition when booking so the team knows what to prepare for.
DVLA and Paperwork – What You Need to Know
If you're scrapping a touring caravan registered with the DVLA, you'll need to notify them. Under GOV.UK guidance on vehicle registration, any registered trailer or vehicle — including some touring caravans — should be formally surrendered when scrapped. If you have a V5C document for the caravan, have it to hand when you book.
Static caravans don't carry DVLA registration, so there's no notification requirement there. But if the static is on a licensed holiday or residential park near Wisbech, notify the site manager before the collection date so access can be cleared.
According to the Environment Agency, all waste carriers must hold a valid licence — so check that whoever you book is properly licensed. Every Scrap My Caravan collection in the Wisbech area is carried out by licensed waste carriers.
What Happens After Collection?
The caravan goes to a licensed dismantling facility. Materials — steel, aluminium, glass, plastics — are sorted and recycled where possible. Around 70–80% of a typical caravan's bulk is recoverable. What isn't recyclable is handled through licensed waste channels — not burned, not fly-tipped.
So when the van leaves your Wisbech driveway or storage plot, that's the last you'll see of it — legally and properly dealt with.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to scrap a caravan near Wisbech?
Touring caravan removal near Wisbech costs between £350 and £600. Static caravan removal starts from £1,800, reaching around £2,100 for larger units. You pay for the removal service — we don't buy caravans, so there's no cash payment to you.
Do I need to notify the DVLA when scrapping a touring caravan?
If your touring caravan is registered with the DVLA and has a V5C logbook, you should notify them when it's scrapped. Not all touring caravans are registered, but if yours has a V5C document, have it ready when you book. Static caravans don't require DVLA notification.
What is the scrap value of a static caravan?
Most static caravans have little or no scrap value — the materials recovered rarely offset the cost of collection and dismantling, which is why removal is a paid service starting from £1,800. We don't buy caravans or make cash offers — there are no exceptions.
Will you take a damaged or damp caravan near Wisbech?
Yes — damaged and damp caravans are collected across the Wisbech and Fenland area. Condition affects the price quoted, not whether the job can be done. Water-damaged caravans are among the most common requests in the Fens, given the local climate.
Can you collect from caravan storage sites in the Fens near Wisbech?
Yes. Scrap My Caravan collects from storage sites, holiday parks, and private plots across the Fenland district. When booking, confirm the site name and any access requirements — gated sites or narrow drove roads may need a site contact available on the day.
