How Is Scrap Car Value Calculated?
The factors that affect how much a scrap car is worth, explained simply.
Weight and metal prices
Much of a scrap car's value comes from its metal, so weight and current scrap metal prices matter.
Make, model and condition
Some vehicles have reusable parts, which can affect the figure.
Missing parts
Whether parts such as the catalytic converter, engine or wheels are present affects the quote.
Location and access
Where the car is and how easily it can be reached can affect collection arrangements.
