Is that car totaled, damaged or completely outlived its use for you? Or perhaps you go tired changing parts over and over again? Well, maybe you need to scrap it and get a new one. 
 
Selling a car is not any of a big deal and quite easy to do in this present age, but what makes it difficult is getting a fair price for your car. The main question that rings in the heads of many when they plan on scraping their car remains, “how much can I get for scraping my car?”
 
Scraping a car in the 21st century is influenced by so many factors, and when these factors are put into consideration, they tend to affect the pricing of the vehicle. The three main factors that determine how much you would get for your vehicle include:
 
  • Weight of your scrap car
In weighing cars, some major engine and body component are put into consideration, and as a result, larger vehicles are priced more. This is because of the demand and market value placed on the parts of these larger cars compared to small family cars.
 
 
  • Vehicle value in the market
Before scraping your car, the value of the vehicle in the market will over the years drop and selling the vehicle the same price it was purchased is next to impossible. Getting the best market value for a car is dependent on its demand and some car even after several years have some rare parts that are in high demand. So you might get lucky.
 
 
  • Location and distance from auto dealer
Scrap yards are often located in areas with little population, and as such, some are far off from cities and towns. Some auto scrap dealers use this as an advantage to offer a low price for a car. So before thinking about how much you’d get for scraping your car, check for the nearest auto scrap dealer location.
 
 
Conclusion
The factors listed above are some of the most important things to consider when you think about getting the right price for your car. Although even if all the boxes here are checked, some auto dealers still offer quite a ridiculous amount, as such, visit any of Scrap Car Removal branch in Surrey, Vancouver, Langley, Delta and Coquitlam near you to save you the stress.

Cars are mostly filled with combustible liquids that keep them running, and during accidents, some of the fluids tend to be mixed with oxygen, which in turn leads to fire. Scrap yards experts use different techniques and filtration systems to drain out all fluids in a vehicle even before scraping. When all of these fluids are completely drained out, valuable parts are then removed and kept aside for reuse of sold as spare parts to manufacturers or auto dealers.
