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 touring caravan that still tows and 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 touring caravans
The one case where the money comes to you
- Touring caravans only — never statics
- It must still tow and be in working order
- Minor damp is acceptable
- Minor leaks or damage are acceptable
- Most offers land between £100 and £700
- Up to £2,000 for the very best, 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.

Caravan Scrapyard Options in County Durham
County Durham has a small number of operators that deal with caravans. CD Caravan Breakers in Peterlee is one of the better-known local names and accepts scrap caravans in the area.
Most standard metal scrap yards in County Durham will not accept caravans. They are too large and too complex for a regular metal yard. You need a licensed specialist who can dismantle, de-pollute, and recycle correctly under Environment Agency guidelines.
If you want to verify a facility is licensed before handing over your caravan, check the Environment Agency public register.
Caravan Breakers in County Durham — An Alternative to Scrap Yards
Caravan breakers strip the caravan first, salvaging usable parts — windows, doors, furniture, axles, and chassis components — before the shell goes for recycling. This is better for the environment and often means a better return for you.
Listings at caravanbreakersnearme.com cover the County Durham area, and CD Caravan Breakers in Peterlee also handles breaking work. If your caravan still has reusable parts, a breaker may offer more than a straight scrap deal.
Static Caravan Scrapping in County Durham
County Durham has a number of holiday and residential caravan parks, particularly along the Durham Heritage Coast near Seaham and Peterlee. Parks here regularly retire units that have reached the end of their useful life.
Static caravans require specialist lifting and transport equipment. We work with park operators across County Durham and can arrange bulk collections for parks clearing multiple units at once.
If you manage a holiday park or residential site and need caravans removed, contact us for a site visit and a commercial collection quote.

Touring caravans from £350 and static caravans from £1,800 — these are the collection costs for caravans in reasonable condition. If your caravan has very little salvage value, there may be a modest collection fee. We confirm the full figure before we do anything.
Do I Need a Certificate of Destruction for My Caravan?
Most caravans are not registered as vehicles, so they do not legally require a Certificate of Destruction. However, if your caravan has a V5C logbook, it is classified as a registered vehicle and you should use an Authorised Treatment Facility (ATF) that can issue a CoD and notify the DVLA. We can advise on this when you contact us.
