Do junkyards pay for cars for scrap?

Question

If not, where can I go to get a few hundred bucks for a car other than a dealership? thanks

Answer 1

I would first run an ad in your local paper. Maybe state that its a good parts car. Junkyards would be next and scrap yards last, they pay by the weight. If you go this route, throw some old engines and such to help weight it down.

Answer 2

Junkyards will pay about $50 for a car not running, $100+ if it is running. You have to have proper free and clear title though. If your want a few hundred I suggest you take out everything you can by yourself for scrap/recycling/core like the battery, alternator, catalytic convertor, etc. Then recycle the aluminum parts. Sell the seats speakers, radio, (even if it is factory) yourself. Then junk the rest.
You'd be surprised what people will buy out of an old car.
You may have to sit on it a while or advertise but that's the only way you're gonna get a "few hundred".

Answer 3

Yes, but for scrap value (at a SCRAP yard) they're not worth very much, maybe $50.

If a car runs, an AUTO WRECKING YARD might pay you $100 to $300 if you're lucky (depending upon the car).

Answer 4

those junk yards delivers you at terrific $2 hundred. you may attempt merchandising it regionally and could do greater efficient. the terrific element the automobile has is a working engine. whether it has subject concerns commencing, that is fixed. automobiles are well worth a lot greater in areas than in finished. so which you already know a junk backyard will take it aside and triple their money. Why provide them that danger once you're able to do this your self. i could promote it for $600.

Answer 5

Yes, usually around $100 a piece.You must remove the gas tank and most places require the car's title if available.

Answer 6

They pay from $25 to $300.

Answer 7

YES MOST JUNK YARDS DO BUY CARS BUT THE QUESTION AT HAND IS HOW MUCH DO THEY PAY,WELL I TOTALY THINK THAT IT DEPENDS ON THE JUNK DEALER,AND ANOTHER WAY OF GETTING RED OF IT IS TO RUN A ADD BUT LIST IT AS IS AND TAKE IT FROM THERE WELL I HOPE I HAVE HELPED YOU OUT AND IF I HAVNT I AM TRULY SORRY

Answer 8

i own a repair shop,and most of the time they wont pay much for them,,and that's just for weight,,they usually wind up with more than the can handle,,but yes they will buy them once in a while as for a car lot buying it,i doubt that happening unless they need it for parts..good luck,i hope this help,s.,,,try running an add in your local paper and sell it that way,,you,ll get more for it,,good luck.
