You’ve probably seen some junk cars in Sydney in your neighbourhood. Perhaps you even have one hidden in your garage, too. Junk cars cannot be used, so they end up blocking the driveway or becoming an eyesore on the front or backyard. At times, they may even take up space in a garage. The best thing to do is immediately get rid of them.
Junking a car might sound as easy as leaving it out on the street in hopes that the garbage truck will pick it up. But given its size, it won’t simply be picked up by anyone. It’s not advisable to abandon it elsewhere, too, as that can get you into trouble with the law.
So what can you do? We recommend calling a trusted car removal company that buys junk cars in Sydney and pays top dollar for them.
Why Choose Junk Car Removal?
Did you know that despite its current state, your junk car may still have some good value in it? That’s because it could still offer some recyclable and reusable materials when it’s sold to a car removal and wrecking company. Almost 80 percent of any car can be recycled to help reduce waste in the landfill. Keep reading to learn more facts and figures about junking a car.
Signs Your Car Is Already Junk
Every junk car is unique. Some may look great on the surface but have issues and require expensive and frequent repairs. Other junk cars in Sydney may have been rusted or wrecked, have flat tires, or lack a license plate, title, or registration. In severe cases, the junk car may resemble a huge planter because it has been in one place for an extended period.
If your car is not in good shape and you don’t drive it anymore, consider it a junk car and sell it to a car removal business for cash.
Junk Cars Can Be Recycled
Wreckers dismantle junk cars for reusable and recyclable parts. Aluminium is the second most used metal in vehicles, right after steel. Recycling even a tiny piece of aluminium could save a lot of energy, which may be equivalent to the amount of energy needed to make a light bulb run for 24 hours. Cars have plenty of aluminium, so imagine how much energy can be saved by recycling junk cars in Sydney.
As for the steel components, they are recycled repeatedly without reducing their integrity. Recycling steel could save as much as 60 percent of energy.
It Saves On Raw Material
Junking and recycling a car could help save tons of raw material. That means saving up to 55kg of limestone, 1134kg of iron ore, and 635kg of coal. Also, an average junk car is likely to have 200kg of recyclable scrap plastic from its interior and exterior.
