How much money will junk cars 4 cash pay me for my junk car?

Most truly “junk cars” are currently worth anywhere between $50 and $300. So knowing how to sell your junk car is important as professionals, we know this is a big range, but there are a lot of factors that can affect the price of your vehicle. At Junk Cars For Cash,  we need to make things even more complicated, the same exact car can be worth a lot more, or a lot less, depending on your location. For example, the price of scrap metals varies day to day depending on the location and can be wildly different. Even things like gas prices can affect your offer because tow trucks run on gas and sometimes have to travel over 100 kms to pick up a junk car! Here are some additional factors that affect how much we offer you for your car:

Year - Make - Model

What kind of car you have is by far the most important factor in how much it is worth. As you might expect, we won't pay the same amount for a 2010 Mercedes-Benz as we would for a 1992 Buick LeSabre. Most newer vehicles that may not really be junk can be sold at auction for a much higher price than what the raw materials are worth

Size and Weight

If the car is going to a salvage yard rather than auction, one of the most important factors that affect the value is how large the vehicle is and how much the raw scrap material is worth. A small Honda Civic will be worth more less than a large Chevy Suburban. However, many of our buyers do dismantle and re-sell parts, and so cars with a large market for replacement parts may also be worth more than cars that are more rare.

Driveability and Damage

What most negatively affects the value of your junk car or truck is its overall condition. A vehicle that does not start or drive will almost always be worth less than one that is working. This is because resale prices are higher, and knowing the parts on the car work and may be salvaged also improves the value of the car. Similarly if a vehicle has a lot of rust or damage from an accident, not only is the car more difficult to resell but there are fewer valuable parts left.

I don't have the title but I still want to sell my junk car.

Many questions come up about if and how a vehicle can be purchased without one.
