What decides the price of a scrap car
No two cars are the same, so we price each one on the phone. These are the things we will ask about.
- Size and weight
- A bigger, heavier vehicle usually has more scrap value than a small one.
- Make, model, year
- Tell us exactly what it is. It tells us what the vehicle and its parts are worth.
- Complete or not
- Say if anything is missing, like the engine, transmission or wheels.
- Condition of parts
- Parts that can be reused count for more than a car that is only good for scrap.
- Where it is
- Tell us the town so we can plan the pickup.
