If you live in Warrington and you have a scrap car that you have been trying to get rid of, you may have found the process rather challenging. There are not very many potential options with such a car, and you may not know what you are supposed to do with such a car.
Let us start by explaining exactly what we mean by a scrap car. By this, we mean an ELV or an End of Life Vehicle. It is a car that is no longer roadworthy and there is no longer any merit left in getting the car fixed. There may be several reasons why a car can end up in such a condition; the car may have been involved in a car accident, and is irreparable; the car may simply be so old that the cost of fixing the car exceeds its value.
If you have such a car, you may be thinking to yourself, 'I'll never be able to sell my car'. However, this is untrue. These cars are of value to scrap and salvage businesses. Even if the car no longer runs, they will still (usually) offer money for the vehicle, and at the very least will offer to remove the car free of charge.
There are several steps involved. Firstly, you need to get a rough valuation for the car, in order to ensure you receive a reasonable price. For instance, if the car is relatively new, but for one reason or another is no longer roadworthy, it probably has many salvageable parts. Perhaps the engine still works, or the gearbox, or the brakes. If so, these parts are all worth money and you should expect to receive a fair price. A fair price would be the cost of these parts as used, at a discount of around 50%, or the price it costs to recondition the parts minus some for labour and profit.
Next, you will need to find a salvage or scrap dealer that operates in the area. One of the largest salvage yards in Warrington and the North West, and certainly one of the most reputable, is Metro Salvage. Once you have found the company, visit their website and follow their instructions.
