Is selling a vehicle to scrap car removal services a good use of your time? The common mindset is that most junk cars aren’t worth much, but this is quite far from the truth!

 

You Can Quickly Determine The Price Of Your Scrap Car By Looking At The Following Factors:

 

  • Make, Model, And Year

What type of car do you own? These details help determine the current market worth of your vehicle, as well as the price of its parts.

 

Do take note that junk cars are only worth about 20-40% of their used worth, plus any other problems will inevitably lower the price. For a more accurate estimate, you can check Red Book Australia’s car valuation report online.

 

  • Vehicle Weight

Your vehicle’s weight is proportional to the amount of metal it contains, mainly scrap steel and aluminium. In fact, the average car has about 1088kg of steel, and, depending on the year, you could earn around $1088-$1632.

 

You can easily obtain the weight of your vehicle by looking through its owner’s manual or checking your side door. Then, you can multiply this number by the price of scrap metal per ton to get a rough estimate!

 

  • Spare Part Availability

Not all scrap cars are non-functional, and you might be able to salvage some useable spare parts worth a reasonable amount of cash. You can opt to take the vehicle apart yourself or leave the job to car removal services if you don’t have the time.

 

Preparing For Your Scrap Car Removal

 

Of course, even if you’re selling the car to a removal service, it’s your personal responsibility to clean it out. Make sure to retrieve your possessions, checking every nook and cranny from the glove compartment to the floor mats.

 

Don’t forget to remove the car’s number plates. You’ll need them to cancel your registration. And finally, it’s best to drain it of gas to make the removal process a little easier. You can either drive the vehicle around until the tank is dry or siphon the remaining fuel with a long plastic hose.

 

Where To Go For The Best Worth Scrap Car Removal?

 

Ultimately, the cash you can earn from a scrap car also depends on where you decide to sell it. You have three quick options:

 

  • Look for private enthusiasts, hobbyists, or mechanics willing to purchase or repair damaged cars
  • Dismantle the vehicle and sell its parts separately at different price points
  • Go to a reliable scrap car removal centre like Amazon Car Removal
