Why sell it to a wrecker?
Because a wrecker is the end buyer - the one who knows what every part on your car is worth. It comes to our yard, gets stripped, and its panels, lights, interior and trim are tested and sold to keep other cars on the road.
That's what the quote is based on - the parts, not just the scrap weight. A complete car with in-demand parts can be worth more than scrap - never guaranteed, always quoted on the actual car.
What makes a car valuable for parts
Demand. A part is worth what someone needs it for, so the same car can be worth very different money depending on what's still good and what people are hunting for. The things that move a quote up:
- Completeness- a car that hasn't been picked over is worth more than a stripped shell.
- Straight panels and good glass - body parts are the bread and butter of a wrecking yard.
- Popular models- common cars mean constant parts demand; we're asked for the everyday makes far more than the exotic ones.
- Working electrics, lights and interior trim - small parts, steady sellers.
How it works
- 1
Tell us about the car
Form or phone - make, model, year, condition, what's been replaced or removed.
- 2
We quote its parts value
The yard prices the car on what it carries, not a one-size scrap figure.
- 3
Pickup and payment
Collection is arranged and you're paid on pickup. Then the dismantling starts.
What happens after? The car is logged, stripped and its parts photographed and listed. See the cars we're wrecking right now - proof of exactly where your car ends up.
What's it worth?
Honestly: scrap-grade cars typically fetch hundreds of dollars, whatever the ads shout. Where parts value beats scrap value is a complete, in-demand car - and that's exactly the case where selling to the yard directly pays off. Every car gets an individual quote.
Common questions
How do I sell a car for parts?
Two ways: part it out yourself, or sell the whole car to a wrecking yard. Selling whole means one transaction, no listing photos, no strangers test-fitting parts in your driveway - and the yard handles rego cancellation paperwork guidance and disposal of what's left.
Where can I sell my old car parts?
We buy whole cars rather than loose parts - a car's value to a yard is the full set. If you're after parts instead, our tested used parts are listed online.
Is it better to sell my car whole or part it out myself?
Parting it out yourself can earn more per part but costs weeks of listing, messaging and no-shows - and you still have a stripped shell to dispose of, which costs money. Selling whole trades a little upside for zero hassle. If you've already stripped the easy sellers, say so - we'll quote what's left honestly.
Do you buy cars without rego?
Yes. An unregistered car can't be driven or easily sold privately, which is exactly when selling it for parts makes sense. No rego or roadworthy needed - just photo ID and the right to sell.
What paperwork do I need?
Photo ID and proof you own or are entitled to sell the car. We'll walk you through anything extra (like a statutory declaration if paperwork is missing) before pickup is booked.
