Two ways to scrap a vehicle — which one fits you?
Both are legitimate. The right choice depends on whether you want cash on the metal or the government's road-tax rebate on a new vehicle.
Regular scrap dealer
Best if you just want cash for the metal.
- Pays you the scrap value of the metal — usually a bit more than a centre would, gram-for-gram.
- Cash or UPI on the spot, no long paperwork.
- Works for any vehicle, any age, any condition.
- No Certificate of Deposit — you don't get the road-tax rebate.
- You're responsible for deregistering the vehicle with your RTO.
Government-authorised scrap centre RVSF
Best if you're buying a new vehicle and want the official tax rebate.
- Issues an official Certificate of Deposit — worth up to ~25% road-tax rebate and a registration-fee waiver on your next vehicle.
- Many manufacturers add a discount (often ~5%) on top.
- The centre handles deregistration with the RTO for you.
- You still get paid the scrap value of the metal — typically a touch lower than a kerbside dealer in exchange for the certificate.
- Best for end-of-life vehicles (15+ years for private, 8–10 for many commercial).
Not sure? If your vehicle is healthy and you're not buying a new one immediately, a regular dealer is usually simpler. If you're upgrading and the vehicle is overage, the Certificate of Deposit is worth thousands — go to a government-authorised centre.

FAQs — Scrapping a Car in Kochi
How much will I get for my old car?
A typical hatchback (≈950 kg) yields ₹25,000–₹45,000 as scrap; sedans and SUVs more. Running vehicles fetch 30–70% more than non-running ones. Use the estimator above for a figure based on today's rates.
What documents do I need?
Registration Certificate (RC), valid ID proof, and an NOC from the financer if the vehicle was on loan. For vehicles over 15 years a fitness test from an Automated Testing Station may be required under the Vehicle Scrappage Policy.
Is there a government incentive?
Yes — under India's Vehicle Scrappage Policy (2021), scrapping at a Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facility (RVSF) gives a Certificate of Deposit worth up to ~25% road-tax rebate on a new vehicle, plus registration-fee waivers. Several states add their own incentives.
Is this service free?
Yes. We connect you with verified dealers at no charge. Dealers may offer free pickup or charge a small amount by distance. You're never obligated to accept an offer.
Car Scrapping in Kochi, Kerala
Scrapping a vehicle in Kochi? The local market reflects Kerala being high vehicle density per capita despite its size, with a large household two-wheeler and small-car population. A verified vehicle-scrap dealer in Kochi is listed above — tap "Get Quote" on any of them and they contact you directly with a price.
Most of what a dealer pays for is the steel and iron in the frame and body, topped up by aluminium, copper wiring, plastics, rubber and the battery — and, on cars, the glass and the catalytic converter, which is one of the higher-value single parts. Registered Vehicle Scrapping Facilities (RVSFs) are operating in Kerala, so if your vehicle is end-of-life you can scrap it at one and collect a Certificate of Deposit — worth a road-tax rebate (commonly up to ~25% for private vehicles) and a registration-fee waiver on your next vehicle. An ordinary scrap dealer pays you the metal value but cannot issue that certificate. For paperwork you'll need the vehicle's RC, your ID, and an NOC from the financer if it was on loan; for more on the policy see our Vehicle Scrappage Policy guide.
