How to find out how much your junk car is worth

Don't think your junk car is not worth anything just because it can't be driven. It's still worth something. So before you sell it, you should find out how much it's really worth.

Right now, the blue book or Kelly book value for the same used car is almost the same as the price of a junk car. But there's a catch. The amount you get for your old car is based on its "reduced value," which is the sum of how much it would cost to fix up and how much it is worth on the market.

Find out how much money your old car is worth. Do this before you sell it. It's very important. How much you can get for your old car mostly depends on how much it's worth. Before you sell your old car, you should make sure you get the most money possible.

How can I sell my junk car for the most money?

It is said by Kelley Blue Book that most scrap cars are worth 20% to 40% of what a used car is worth. However, the price can change for other reasons.

As we've already talked about, the junk price, where the car is, what it looks like, and what year, make, and model it is all affect how much it's worth.

These things affect how much your old car is worth:

When you sell your junk car, where you live makes a big difference in how much you can get. You can get different amounts of money for your car based on where you live and how much junk costs there. Some junkyards will pay more for certain kinds of cars in certain areas because people like those cars. This might change how much money you can make.

Year, Make, and Model—There are still a lot of old cars on the road, but they don't always need the same parts. That being said, a lot of people still drive Dodge Neons, but parts for them aren't in high demand because most Neons that are taken off the road are really broken. On the opposite side you have Toyota Corollas which have a high demand.  Don't forget that cars change every year. In the case of cars, they can use more plastic in their bodies because they use less metal and therefore less fuel. This makes them lighter.

Condition: This is clear, but it's still important to note. If your junk car is clean, in good shape, and works well, you'll probably get more money for it. If you really want to buy a rusty old junk, you'll pay more for it as scrap metal than for its parts.

Current scrap/junk metal price: This is likely the most important thing that determines how much you get for your junk car, since most scrap yards buy cars for their metal value rather than their parts. Even if your car is in good shape, you probably won't get much money for it if the junk price is low.

These aren't the only things that can change how much your old car is worth. For some cars, you might be able to get even more depending on the parts. In some cases, the bits of a car that still runs can fetch more money than the parts of a junk car that don't run. To get the best price when you sell your junk car, you should learn as much as you can about the process ahead of time.
