Do you own a car that’s way past its prime? If you have a car that’s no longer roadworthy, and just sits in your garage collecting dust, then it’s time to scrap the car and get paid in cash. Yes, your junk car can fetch you cash. How much cash depends on many different factors. If you’re interested in scrapping your old, junk or damaged car, and are wondering how much you can hope to get for it, then this article will be very useful for you.
Your car’s worth will be determined by a few important factors, such as:
Factor 1: Is your car in drivable condition or not?
Whether or not your car is drivable will definitely affect its price. A car that’s drivable is worth much more than one that’s not. So, if your car is in drivable condition, be sure to mention that when requesting a quote from a scrap car buyer or car removal company.
Factor 2: How much does your car weigh?
If we’re talking about a scrap car – that is a car that’s beyond repairs and has no hope of every being roadworthy, then its only source of value is its scrap metals. A car removal company will buy the car, wreck it and recycle the scrap metals. If this is the case, then the value of your car will be determined by its weight. You’ll be paid accordingly. Please keep in mind that scrap metal prices fluctuate on a regular basis. So, that’s another thing to keep in mind.
Factor 3: Does the car contain any working parts?
The third scenario is when the car is not drivable but has a few working car parts in good condition. In such a situation, those car parts can be pulled and resold by the car wrecker. So, you can expect to get a decent price for the vehicle for its scrap metals plus the working car parts.
Considering all the above factors, depending on the condition of your car, your cash offer can be anywhere from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars.
