Can I Sell My Car To A Junkyard?

Yes, you can sell your car to a junkyard. Junkyards and scrap yards accept vehicles in any condition, including vehicles that are missing parts, that were involved in an accident or that have mechanical damage.

If your vehicle is in relatively good shape and has few problems, selling it to a junkyard doesn’t make financial sense. Chances are, you can sell it for a significantly better price to a dealership, a used car buyer or an individual. Just because you can get an offer from a junkyard doesn’t mean that’s the best place to sell your car.

If your car is in okay shape but has some expensive problems, it might make sense to sell it to a junkyard. For instance, if your car is physically in good shape but needs the engine or transmission replaced, you should compare options and get quotes before deciding whether to sell it to a junkyard or not.

The benefit of selling it to a junkyard is you can close the sale quickly, and towing is generally included. If you want to get rid of a vehicle fast, junkyards are often a good choice. However, you may not get the best price for your car.

How To Find The Best Salvage Yard To Sell My Car

The best way to find the right salvage yard to sell your car is to contact multiple yards in your area and ask for quotes. Begin by looking up yards in your area online and writing down their numbers.

Once you have a list of yards you can contact, begin requesting quotes. Make sure you describe the following details:

1. The year, make, model and trim of your car.

2. Whether your car is missing any parts.

3. Whether there is any rusting in your vehicle.

Additionally, make sure to ask if the yard has any charges for towing your vehicle. Once you have several quotes, you can begin to compare your options.

In some cases, you may be able to negotiate for a better price. After you have your list of quotes, contact junk yards that gave you slightly lower quotes and ask if they can match the price another yard offered or do better. Some shops will refuse to negotiate, but others might be willing to give you a better price.

After comparing quotes and negotiating, you should be able to pick a yard to sell your vehicle to.

How Do You Sell Your Car To A Salvage Yard?

You contact the yard, describe your vehicle and ask for a quote. Then, you and the yard discuss transporting the vehicle to the yard. In some cases, you'll receive free towing from the yard, but in others you may be asked to arrange transportation and/or pay for it yourself.

Once the vehicle is at the yard, they will typically perform a final inspection. Hopefully, nothing changes between the tentative offer and the final offer. Once the inspection is complete, you will sign the title over to the yard and accept your payment.

At JunkCarMasters, however, we have an easier process. We can offer you quote for your vehicle in 90 seconds entirely online, with free towing and title transfer automatically included!

How Much Will A Salvage Yard Pay Me For My Car?

That depends on your car, what condition it's in and whether any of the parts in it are recyclable. You'll have to contact salvage yards and describe your vehicle in order to get estimates, but you'll also have to negotiate over towing costs!

At JunkCarMasters, however, we take the hassle out of the sales process.
