What is Car Removal and How Does it Work?
Car removal is a simple process to help you get rid of an unwanted or damaged car in an environmentally friendly way. Basically it’s the removal of the car from your property and transportation to a salvage yard or wrecking yard. Here the car is dismantled and the parts are recycled and reused. In Western Australia companies like Perth Wreckers do this service. They have the expertise and equipment to do the whole process safely and efficiently so your car is disposed of in a way that benefits you and the environment.
Benefits of Car Removal
Using a car removal service in Perth and Western Australia has many benefits. Firstly it’s a convenient and hassle free way to get rid of an unwanted or damaged car. Secondly it’s environmentally friendly by recycling and reusing vehicle parts, reducing the impact of vehicle disposal. Thirdly many car removal services pay cash for your car, so your old car becomes a source of income. Fourthly it keeps our communities clean by removing abandoned or wrecked cars from public spaces, making our environment neater and nicer.
Ask the right questions.
The truth is not all auto salvage yards and junkyard companies think the same. You can get more cash for your lemon car if you sell to the right buyers.
We know it’s easy to just drive your lemon car to your local junkyard or recycling center. You get there, accept the first offer and bring the cash home. But if you think you should get more for your car then you should be asking around first.
There are auto recycling companies that are connected to junkyards all over the country. They will offer the best price no matter what condition your car is in.
Most of the time you’ll get an offer the same day you bring your car but that’s just a better offer than your local junkyard.
And you have to do your homework so you won’t be a victim of a scam. Yes you read that right; junkyard scams are real.
Always see the junkyard’s license. Make sure you understand their definition of a ton. A metric ton and a net ton is not the same thing. Get your car weighed in net ton for the best offer.
How to Choose a Good Car Removal Service
Choosing a good car removal service in Perth or Western Australia takes some research. Start by looking for a company with a good reputation and the necessary licenses to operate in the area. It’s good to choose a service that has a wide range of car parts and accessories for sale, means they have a well stocked salvage yard. Make sure they have a large number of vehicles, cars, trucks and commercial vehicles in their salvage yard. Free vehicle removal and towing is a big plus. Finally read online reviews and ask friends and family for referrals to know their customer service and reliability.
The Car Removal Process
The car removal process is easy and involves the following steps:
- Contact the Service: Call a car removal service and provide the details of your car.
- Get a Quote: Get a quote for your car and agree on the price.
- Schedule Pickup: Arrange a time and date for the car pickup.
- Prepare the Car: Make sure the car is accessible and ready for removal.
- Transfer Ownership: Sign over the car and get the cash.
- Vehicle Transport: The car removal service will then transport the car to their salvage yard where it will be dismantled and the parts recycled and reused.
Know the factors that affect the offer.
If you know what can affect the offer you will be informed. One way of saying this is don’t jump to conclusions that a low offer is a scam. Listen to the junkyard’s representative to explain why the offer is lower or higher than you expected.
This article is informative about how the price of scrap metal is calculated. The price of scrap metal like aluminum, steel and copper in the market is not constant. It’s one of the factors that will affect the quote you will be offered.
Also the use of recycled materials from salvaged vehicles is good for the environment.
You also have to know that your car has to be prepared before it’s ready to be crushed. The labor that will go to the prep will also affect the digits on their offer. They will have to assess how much of your car is reusable too.
Also think of what will it cost you to bring your car to the junkyard. All is well if your car is drivable. Then you can save some money.
You might think the minor scratches and rust are ignored but they will still reflect on the quote. We at WA Car Removals pay top cash for scrap cars.
Remember any junkyard won’t buy a car without its title. Under the law you are required to present the title as proof that you are the owner and it’s not stolen or something. So make sure you have it with you before you head to the junkyard.
