And that’s one of those funny things about buying junk cars; the person selling it, tries to build value in it, even though it’s going straight to the scrap yard. When the car gets purchased for scrap, it’s by the pound a certain amount… so it doesn’t matter if the “interior’s in great shape” or you “just put new brake pads on it,” that’s all VERY irrelevant!
Well, guess what. Chefs and mechanics don’t think the same way! No doubt, were you to take your own fish into the restaurant to ask for a cheaper meal you would quickly be shown the door. However, this is not the case when you need car parts.
The problem at hand is that who would buy a car that doesn’t run? Of course you may be able to find a car enthusiast willing to pay you some money to have possession of the car and then work upon it. But the chances of this are very slim. This is where car salvage companies step in to provide you with a very beneficial service.
You may be able to find used car parts on the internet. Shop online and do some research on installing the part as well. You may be able to save money on the purchase of the used car part, as well as save money on labor if you know how to install the part yourself. When you conduct your search online, don’t forget to include the make and model of your car.

Upon contact with these companies, ask about their requirements for a scrap car. Many companies have a requirement to get the wheels removed. Many times gas tanks are also required to be removed as well. Some accept them without removing the wheels; however, the valuation price will be lower.
People often think of an auto junkyard as just another dump – but present day junkyards are actually a form of recycling and easy on the environment. Most junk cars that end up in a junkyard are either sold at auctions or sold for scrap. In fact, junkyards provide steel and many other metals to the building and car industries, ensuring that the metals from a junked car continue to be used for other vital purposes and help save important natural resources, as well. In addition, the modern junkyard is regulated by federal and state laws that have strict guidelines on the draining and disposal of all fluids from junk cars, so the junkyard is no longer a threat to the ground water in the area.
Go to your local wholesale clubs (Costco, Sam’s Club, etc). Their shelves are over loaded with current bulk merchandise ripe for picking. Look for two-for-one sales and discounts on dated and close out products.
