What is yours worth?

before you ring anybody

Knowing the floor under the price is the difference between a fair figure and the first one you are offered.

What is it?

This sets the weight, and weight sets the scrap price.

Does it run?

The single biggest factor. A car that drives may be resold rather than scrapped.

Do you have the title?

Without one, fewer buyers can legally take it. Rules differ by state.

Is the catalytic converter still fitted?

The largest single item on a scrap car.

What else is still on it?

Untick anything that has been removed or wrecked.

Where is it?

Postcode only. We use it to find buyers near you and nothing else.

No sign-up, and we never ask for your name, email or phone.

Before they collect it

Agree the figure and whether towing is included before anyone is dispatched. The commonest complaint about selling a junk car is a price that drops when the truck arrives, and the way to avoid it is to describe the car accurately on the phone: whether it runs, whether the converter is still on it, and whether you have the title.

Take the plates off and keep them. Photograph the odometer and the paperwork before it leaves. Rules on releasing liability differ by state, so check your own DMV rather than taking the buyer's word for what you need to file.
