JUNK VEHICLE PRICES

In most cases, the average price for junk vehicles falls within the $100 – $500 range.Getting rid of your junk car isn’t a complicated process, but determining how much it is worth and taking the proper steps to get the most value can be a little confusing, but all appraisals, at least from many salvage companies, have these factors in common

• Location of vehicle
• Year, Make, Model
• Condition of Vehicle
• Current Price of Scrap Metal

It’s with these factors that appraisers will estimate the value of your vehicle, which ultimately determines what we can pay you for your junk car.

One of the most important things you need to do before selling your junk car is finding how much that junk car costs. The true  value of your junk car  determines how much you can get out of the vehicle. After you determine what we will pay for your vehicle you can schedule to remove your junk car with us, we’re glad to help anyone who is interested in using our service.

As mentioned above, where the vehicle is located, the condition of the car, what year/make/model it is, and the current price of scrap all play a major role in creating an accurate appraisal. Also at DKs we pay more for cars that are not junk but need work. Not all vehicles that run will be candidates to be saved and repaired. It will be our discretion In those cases some extra questions may be asked. Other things to take into consideration when buying junk vehicles are-

Location – Where you live plays a huge role in what you’re able to receive for a junk car. Your proximity to a salvage yard and regional price of scrap play a role in how much you can receive for your vehicle. 

Year/Make/Model – While there are still many older vehicles on the road today, the demand for parts is not always consistent, but the demand for those parts is. another thing to consider. Also as vehicles become more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly, more plastic may be integrated into the bodies, which decreases the metal weight.

Condition – \ This is easy to understand, but it’s worth mentioning. If you are driving a pristine, clean, and smooth running junk car, you’re more likely to get more cash for it. If the vehicle beat up then it’s going to be bought for its scrap value, rather than the value of its parts.

Current Price of Scrap – This is the most important factor in how much you receive for your junk car,  because salvage companies are buying vehicles for the metal value not parts. If the price of scrap is down, you will not be able to receive a high payout for your vehicle, unless it is in really good condition then its a posibility 

A harsh reality of life is that cars aren’t built to last forever. Things go wrong. Parts fall off , The body begins to rust  Or the engine simply gives out. That’s when it’s time to make a decision: Replace your ride or make the necessary repairs, And are the repairs needed to make it roadworthy again to expensive or worth what life is left in the vehicle.

So you’re having car trouble. check out this customer help page, The first thing you need to do is figure out what’s wrong. If this is an ongoing issue, you’ll likely already have a reasonable idea of what’s needed and how much it will cost to fix.But if you’re not a gear head, go ahead and pay a mechanic to take a look under the hood and provide a solid estimate for repairs. This will give you a reasonable idea of how much it’s going to cost to delay the purchase of something else, at least for now.

Even if you’re not a trained mechanic, perhaps you’re somewhat skilled with a wrench — at least enough to tinker around and solve the problem without paying a fortune in labor costs. You might be surprised how many basic car repairs can be done yourself with the right parts and a YouTube video for guidance. There are a ton of online resources that make it possible to avoid expensive mechanic costs, as long as the repair requires only minimal skills and a few basic tools.So if you’re willing to roll up your sleeves and invest a bit of sweat equity, you could save money on both repair costs and the price of a new set of wheels.

Another key factor is your budget. Have you saved up some cash for emergency auto repairs? Have you planned ahead for major repairs, new car payments, or for the outright cash purchase of a replacement?You need to honestly assess your finances. Do you have a way to make extra money? Are you getting a better job or a promotion? Can you make spending cuts in other areas to provide the money needed to solve your car issue?It’s important to be wise about your spending. After all, the last thing you want to do is put yourself underwater by spending money that you can’t afford.Creating a budget will also let you know exactly how much you can spend when it’s time to pull the trigger and make a decision about what type of car to buy.

Perhaps you’ve decided that you’re not up to making the repairs yourself. This could be wise, especially if the issue is engine-related. Engine problems can be complicated to fix, and are often expensive.An experienced mechanic might be able to get you back on the road, but the cost of those repairs might be greater than the value of the car. This is especially true if you’re driving an older model car.But you’ll need to know exactly what the estimated repair costs would be before making your final decision.

Is the car still drivable? This could have a huge impact on whether to delay purchasing a replacement. When funds are tight, you’ll likely want to squeeze every mile out of your ride that you possibly can.Have an honest conversation with your mechanic. Tell them about your dilemma. Ask them for an educated estimate of how long they expect the car can be safely driven before it gives up the ghost.Because if you’re not much more than a few weeks away from another major problem, this might be the time to go ahead and look at trading it in on something else, putting it up for sale, or selling it for scrap. 

Do some research. Go online and find out your car’s actual value. Resources such as Kelly Blue Book can help, depending on the age of the car.Once you have a grasp of how much it’s worth, this will help you decide whether to sell it or trade it in.

The decision to buy new or used will also impact your current options. Buying a new car can provide peace of mind that you won’t need to worry about repairs anytime in the near future. A used car, on the other hand, could place you back in the repair shop much sooner than you might imagine. 

Once you’ve gotten repair estimates, along with a firm grasp of your budget and the value trade-in value of your car, start shopping around for a replacement. Keep in mind that regardless of whether it's new or used, buying a car won’t be cheap. But you’ll need to be informed so that you can compare a purchase price against potential repair costs.

Ultimately, your decision needs to be based on the value you’re getting for your money. After all, if repairs would run more than $2,000 dollars, you’re likely just investing money in a sinking ship. Old cars tend to be a money pit — especially if it’s your daily driver. So the best thing you can do for yourself is to know when it’s finally time to walk away.

Car repairs can be extremely expensive. That’s why it’s important to know when to replace your ride. Sooner or later you’ll have to say goodbye and part ways. The trick is knowing when that day has finally arrived.
