Use your gut instinct. Whichever methods you use you should always go with what feels right, if the salesman seems a little pushy then walk out the door.

Part of the problem is that the car is basically no longer worth anything. 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!

However, many people do nothing to get rid of them because it’s simply such a pain in the butt to do so. Many people have no idea what to do to get rid of these types of things.

Once you have found that you can get your auto part there, you need to know if you will have to pull it on your own or if they have people that do that for you. This is a big deal because you could end up losing a whole afternoon to getting that one little auto part if you end up having to pull it on your own. If you are able to just go pick it up at the men pull, you will only have to give a couple minutes of your time up for the auto part that you are getting. This could make a huge difference in the costs of the auto parts if you are not careful though.

Scrapping your car solves this issue twofold. First, it takes an older car off the road, meaning it needs to be replaced with a newer, greener model. And second, it means that things like tyres and batteries that can be harmful when they’re just binned have to be properly disposed of.

Something is better than nothing- Remember that you are holding a junk sale to make some cash. If the goods are not sold, you have to donate them. Therefore, it is always better to price your wares accordingly. If you are looking for making big bucks then it is wise to list them in a couple of online auction or yard sale sites.

Some automotive parts remain in good condition even though the car is damaged. If you can manage your required parts from the junkyard, then it would save a huge from your budget.

There are a lot of aftermarket auto parts you can purchase and install on your own. A little homework before you start the project and you are good to go. Also a lot of suppliers have detailed instructions on the how to. I find it very satisfying to do the work myself. You get the feeling that you did it all! And it is always a good conversation piece. Although, if you have not attempted anything like this before, I always recommend a professional to do the install.

All those cars that were scrapped, older folks, college kids or first time drivers could have bought and stimulated the economy more than what little fuel or green house gases they would use/omit.
