Places That Buy Cars That Don't Run

Typically you’re looking at junkyards around you, and salvage yards/scrap yards in your area who are willing to buy your junk car. Many will be after the scrap metal and thus give scrap car prices calculated using a price per ton.

If you’re lucky you might be able to trade-in a junk car to a used car dealer, but they also aren’t too interested in car’s that don’t run.

The last obvious choice is to try to sell your junk car to a local junk car buyer. People who buy junk cars are usually very car savvy and likely have years of experience haggling down prices. That’s why this can be one of the more difficult ways to sell your car.

Who Will Buy My Non Running Car?

When comparing the places you can sell your car to you’ll find the prices aren’t always the best. As far as scrap yards go all you have to ask yourself what metal your car is made out of, often steel, and look up the price per scrap metal ton. As of writing the price is about $120.00 per ton. So if your car is 4,000 lbs (2 tons) that means it will go for $240.00 in scrap metal, plus a cut for processing/profits from the scrap yard. Oh yeah, and towing your vehicle to the yard also costs something so you can factor that in as well. After all this, you aren’t left with much.
