Auto Recycling: Cash for Cars

Auto Recycling: Cash for Cars

Many car owners will experience a time when their vehicle is no longer in any condition to be driven further. Even if it’s running and still has a few years of use left, there’s often no resale value. So, what can you do instead?

You can consider recycling your car! It’s a practical way to get rid of your vehicle without adding to the landfills, while making some decent cash for its components.

Why Should You Recycle Old Cars?

Old cars certainly demand a lot more time, effort, and money on their maintenance. On the other hand, newer models are better for your budget and the environment, as they offer greater gas mileage and emit fewer emissions.

Millions of cars are deemed undrivable each year, and more than half of these are recycled. In most cases, about 90% of a car’s parts are recyclable — for instance, tires can be recycled to make pavement base, glass can be used to make tiles, batteries can be recycled to make fresh ones, and metal parts can be recycled to make new items. Selling the old car parts is also an environmentally friendly way to earn cash while keeping these components out of landfills.

What Car Components Can Be Recycled for Cash?

If you have an old vehicle sitting around on your property,you can easily scrap it to earn cash. At Midwest PGM Recycling Center, we accept a wide variety of auto parts at our facility. You can bring in any of the following:
=

A/C Compressors

=

Air Flow Meters

=

Alternators

=

Calipers

=

ECM

=

Starters

=

Power Window Motors

=

Power Steering Pumps

=

Rack & Pinion/Steering Boxes

But the list isn’t limited to just these. Many other auto components can be accepted for recycling. The airbags, bumpers, batteries, doors, fenders, GPS systems, lights, oil filters, radio, seats, windshield, wheels, and tires can all be sold for scrap.

Most notably, if you come to us, we are willing and able to pay fair and competitive prices for any parts you’re looking to sell. Our professionalism and honesty make us the most trusted name in the Cedar Lake area when it comes to scrapping old vehicles.

However, prices for car components can vary based on factors such as the current market price for different metals, or the vehicle’s model, make, and year. In some cases, the demand for certain components is used to determine the appropriate price that a scrapyard would be willing to pay.

For vehicles that have no reusable components, the cash value may be somewhat low. But if the parts are still in good shape, you can expect a higher price. It’s always best to first discuss your options with an expert before making a decision.
