Getting rid of an old vehicle can be tricky. Not everyone is willing to buy damaged vehicles, and most so-called ‘interested buyers’ will only end up wasting your time. The good news is that you have another option. Junk car removal services offer a sure-fire way to dispose of your unwanted junkers quickly and safely.
Junk Car Removal Services Compared To Other Methods Of Selling An Old Vehicle
Like many sellers, you might have tried to sell or trade-in your old clunker to a dealership only to be disappointed. Not all dealerships accept old cars that don’t run, and those who do want to pay almost nothing for them. Junk vehicles are not profitable for dealerships, so they may agree to buy your car only if you also agree to buy a newer vehicle from them.
Perhaps you have also tried to sell your clunker to a private buyer. While there’s a chance that you’ll get a higher price from an individual buyer than a dealership, you also have to spend cash to get the deal done. You have to pay for advertising the vehicle and take time out from your day to meet with interested buyers. Even then, there isn’t any guarantee that the buyer will agree to the sale.
Why You Should Choose Junk Car Removal Services
In most cases, the easiest and most eco-friendly way to get rid of a junk car is to sell it to a professional scrapyard. But why exactly is it the best option?
Here’s an example: Imagine if your old Toyota has been sitting in your garage for years. Unfortunately, this means it has already drained a lot of fluids, leaking gas and transmission oil onto the ground. Plus, if your vehicle has been unused for an extended period, its frame is likely rusted. This only seems like an aesthetic issue on the surface, but rust leads to corrosion and can attract tetanus-causing bacteria. Hence, getting rid of your vehicle via a junk removal service protects your health and those around you.
But the benefits don’t stop there. For instance, did you know that junk car removal is also excellent for the environment? Once a vehicle is picked up from your property, it will undergo a recycling process:
- Removal Of Fluids
As mentioned, unused cars tend to leak fluids into the soil. You can avoid this; by junking the vehicle as soon as possible, allowing recyclers to dispose of the harmful liquids properly.
- Recovery Of Usable Parts
Your car may be old and rusty, but that doesn’t mean it’s completely useless. It may still contain valuable reusable parts such as its wheels, engine, and seats that can be resold to other vehicle owners.
- Recovery Of Scrap Metals
Cars are mostly made up of metals, and it would be a waste to throw them all away. Recyclers will take these remaining metals and recycle them, separating them into ferrous and non-ferrous fragments. Then, the recycled metals are sent to manufacturers to produce new cars and other products.
