Even as you wonder how to sell your junk car, it would be important that you look at the condition. Write down the exact condition pertaining to its parts. Determine the parts that can be used and which ones cannot. This is especially important when the salvage buyers are interviewing you about it. Be sure to check the condition of the tires, the interiors, polishing etc. While the dealers will always try to ascertain the value of the car once they have it in their possession, assessing it yourself beforehand is imperative so that you can compare the prices that they are offering.

The first thing to do is to find great sources of junk cars. Like what has been mentioned earlier you can buy them from junk yards, online markets, and from friends or relatives. You can also find junk vehicles from auctions or even from your own garage. Learn about these sources to have a constant supply of junk cars when you start your business. You can post an ad that says «we buy junk vehicles» in your local newspaper or in your webpage to let people know what you need.

The questions they are going to ask is the year, make and model of your vehicle. Next will be the mileage on your car, this is a big factor in determining how much your car is worth. Obviously the lower the mileage the more money your car will be worth.

marsh auto parts The simplest and best way to do so is to speak to a used car salesman. They should be able to advise how much they think they would be able to sell the car for if they were selling it to make a profit for themselves. If the car is so old and broken down and that cannot be salvaged, then there is the chance that there is no salesman who would want to sell it. In this instance the only available option would be to sell it to a junk-yard. But, this is not a complete loss because the junk yards are prepared to pay some money for any old car, no matter its condition. Many people wrongly get junk car removal for their cars without receiving any money in exchange.

Fixing and reselling – If your car is not extremely damaged, it is likely that the automotive company buying it will try to fix it. Naturally, the value of such cars is very low. However, in some cases, old cars are entirely fixed by upgrading the parts and renewing the paint. Such cars are then shipped abroad as ‘reconditioned cars’. Naturally, the process involves a lot of investment, especially if the cars being worked on are really old and worn out.

Other than recycling the parts of the old cars, these companies also reuse the parts that are still usable. For example, they sell off the parts of the cars that are still working to automobile repair shops. It is important to reuse or recycle as much of these cars as is possible, because a lot of materials that go into manufacturing cars are not biodegradable. This means that once these get into the soil they will never disintegrate and can get into water supplies and poison people.

The repossessed vehicle, whether a junk car or a brand new model, is taken away from owners because of unpaid dues. So, the first order of reclaiming repossessed junk cars, or any vehicle for that matter, is to talk to the creditor, and fast. Act slow and it would mean money for scrap cars, in the creditor’s case.

You could drive your vehicle to a used car lot and say «I want to sell my car for cash now.» That may very well get you the cash you want, assuming the dealer is interested. It will be up to you to entice him if this is the selling option you choose. To do that, you’ll need to drive up in a clean car that runs good and hopefully has a complete set of maintenance records. That is what it will take to get an offer from the dealer. Keep in mind that you might get a good price – just not as good as you would if you tried to sell the car yourself. That’s the trade-off you make.

One outlet for used car parts is the local newspaper’s classified section. Run an ad and see what happens. Selling parts from your car isn’t going to make you a lot of money, but it beats just leaving them on the car as it’s towed to the junkyard. You can also sell your car parts by word of mouth. You never know what can happen.
